I built this dance studio website because I wanted to try making something that looks and feels different from a basic website. I went with a warm colour palette, big typography and dance photos to give it more of an editorial style.

It has sections for classes, dancers, events, about and contact. I’ve been working on the design and getting it deployed on GitHub Pages.

One thing that gave me trouble was deployment. The homepage worked, but opening some pages directly led to a 404, even though GitHub Actions showed a successful build. I’m working on fixing that properly.

I’m pretty happy with how the homepage has turned out so far. There’s still more I want to improve, but this project has helped me learn a lot by actually building and deploying something instead of just following tutorials.

Finally got the website looking how I wanted

I’ve been working on my dance studio website and spent some time getting the overall look right. I wanted it to feel more like an actual dance studio brand instead of just another basic website template.

I went with a clean, editorial style with large typography, warm colours and dance photography. I also worked on the navigation and different sections so people can explore the classes, dancers, events and other information.

One thing I’m still sorting out is the GitHub Pages deployment. The homepage loads, but opening some routes directly gives me a 404 page, even though the GitHub Actions build and deploy both show as successful. So that’s the next thing I’m debugging.

Still have things to improve, but it’s nice seeing the design come together and actually be live on the internet. I’ll keep working on the routing and testing the other pages.
