Welcome to the final module of our CSS Mastery course! In this module, we will put everything you've learned into practice by building a fully responsive website from scratch. This project will help you consolidate your knowledge and give you hands-on experience with real-world CSS development.

By the end of this project, you will be able to:

1. Set Up a Project Environment: Understand how to organize your project files and set up a development environment.
2. Create a Layout: Use HTML and CSS to create a structured layout for your website.
3. Style Components: Apply various CSS properties to style different components of the website.
4. Implement Responsive Design: Use media queries and responsive techniques to ensure your website looks great on all devices.
5. Deploy Your Website: Learn how to deploy your website to a live server.

The project will be divided into the following sections:

1. Setting Up the Project: We'll start by setting up the project environment, including creating the necessary folders and files.
2. Creating the Layout: Next, we'll create the basic structure of the website using HTML and CSS.
3. Styling the Components: We'll then style the various components of the website, such as the header, navigation, main content, and footer.
4. Making the Site Responsive: We'll ensure that the website is responsive and looks good on different screen sizes.
5. Final Touches and Deployment: Finally, we'll add some finishing touches and deploy the website to a live server.

Before we begin, make sure you have the following tools installed:

• A Code Editor: We recommend Visual Studio Code, but you can use any code editor of your choice.
• A Web Browser: Google Chrome or Mozilla Firefox for testing your website.
• A Local Server: Optional, but tools like Live Server (a VS Code extension) can be very helpful for live-reloading your changes.

For this project, we will build a simple portfolio website. The website will consist of the following sections:

• Header: Contains the site logo and navigation links.
• Hero Section: A large banner with a background image and a call-to-action button.
• About Section: A brief introduction about yourself or your business.
• Portfolio Section: A gallery of your work or projects.
• Contact Section: A contact form for visitors to get in touch with you.
• Footer: Contains social media links and copyright information.

Here is a basic wireframe of the website layout:

This project will be a comprehensive exercise that ties together all the concepts you've learned throughout this course. By the end of this module, you will have a fully functional, responsive website that you can showcase in your portfolio.

In the next section, we will start by setting up the project environment. Let's get started!
