I was also able to get back to my client project for the music teacher. I started coding the music classroom website. This site is similar to the previous teacher classroom sites that I have been making. One thing I wanted to try was to provide a little animation to the navigation links.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I used this website to get some inspiration: <a href=\"https:\/\/freefrontend.com\/css-link-styles\/\">https:\/\/freefrontend.com\/css-link-styles\/<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I wanted to add something subtle so I tried to implement one similar to this one:<br><a href=\"https:\/\/codepen.io\/team\/css-tricks\/pen\/xxPOgmZ\">https:\/\/codepen.io\/team\/css-tricks\/pen\/xxPOgmZ<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To add some interactivity to the nav links, I used a ::before pseudo-element to create a thin line underneath each item. The line is styled using a set height, full width, and a background color to match the site\u2019s accent color. At first, the line is hidden using transform: scaleX(0), and when the user hovers over a link, it expands from the center to the full width of the element using transform: scaleX(1). It\u2019s a simple effect but it helps the site feel a little more interactive.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Here is sample of what it the navigation links look like:<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"214\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sethcormican.com\/internship-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Screenshot-2025-05-05-at-11.41.17\u202fPM-1024x214.png\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-91\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sethcormican.com\/internship-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Screenshot-2025-05-05-at-11.41.17\u202fPM-1024x214.png 1024w, https:\/\/www.sethcormican.com\/internship-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Screenshot-2025-05-05-at-11.41.17\u202fPM-300x63.png 300w, https:\/\/www.sethcormican.com\/internship-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Screenshot-2025-05-05-at-11.41.17\u202fPM-768x161.png 768w, https:\/\/www.sethcormican.com\/internship-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Screenshot-2025-05-05-at-11.41.17\u202fPM-1536x321.png 1536w, https:\/\/www.sethcormican.com\/internship-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/05\/Screenshot-2025-05-05-at-11.41.17\u202fPM-2048x429.png 2048w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>As my internship class winds down I have a few other tasks that I need to complete to finish out the semester. I need to review, test, and validate the website before being able to launch it. Once I finish reviewing I can finalize the hosting to get all the projects uploaded. I still need to create some training materials so they can do some basic updating of information on their sites. I am excited to conclude these projects to finish up the semester and my time in school!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This past week I was able to make a few tweaks to my work portfolio website to bring some more consistency to the webpages.
