Lesson №5: Creating a Landing Page using ChatGPT: From Design to Implementation.
In this lesson, we will explore how to use ChatGPT to create a landing page, including design templates, HTML structure, CSS styling, and JavaScript functionality. We will create a landing page for an imaginary online store and add a website header with the store name and navigation menu.
Step 1: Creating a landing page template
First of all, we need an idea of what our landing page should look like. We can ask ChatGPT to help us with the design. Formulate your request as follows: "Create a landing page template for a bakery website." ChatGPT can provide you with a description of the template or even create a simple layout.
Step 2: Generating HTML Code

Response:
You may need to customize the code you received to meet your specific requirements.

Step 3: Adding CSS Styles
With the main HTML code in our hands, we can start adding CSS styles to give our website an aesthetic look.
Request: "Select CSS styles for a bakery website."
Answer:
The obtained styles can be applied in your project.

Step 4: Adding JavaScript Functionality
To add interactivity to your website, we will use JavaScript. This can be an interactive navigation menu, image sliders, or other elements.
Request: "Suggest JavaScript code for an interactive menu on a bakery website."
Answer:
Step 5: Adding the Header to the Website
The main focus of this lesson is creating a header for the website that includes the name of the bakery and a navigation menu.
Request: "Create a header with the name of the bakery and a menu for the website."
Answer:
ChatGPT will provide you with the relevant code.
With these steps, you can create your own website for a bakery using ChatGPT. It's exciting and allows you to focus on the creative side of the process.
Practical task
Task: Using these steps, try to create your own website. You can choose any theme, add any details to the description, and don't be afraid to experiment!
Instruction:
Task definition: Determine how your website should look. In our case, we will create a website for a cafe. We may need a name for our website, a list of dishes we want to sell, and information about the cafe that we want to include.
Contacting ChatGPT: With this information, let's contact ChatGPT with a request in the following format: "Create a landing page template for the Ocean cafe website." ChatGPT generates HTML, CSS, and JavaScript code templates that can be used as the basis for your website.
Creating an HTML file: Open a text editor (e.g., Notepad or Sublime Text) and create a new file. Paste the generated HTML code into it and save the file with the extension .html, for example, "index.html".
Creating a CSS file: In your text editor, create a new file. You can select "File > New File" in the editor's top menu. Copy the generated ChatGPT CSS code and paste it into the new file. Save this file in the same folder as your HTML file. Select "File > Save As" and specify the file name with the .css extension. For example, you can name the file "styles.css". Now you need to link this CSS file to your HTML file. To do this, open the HTML file and inside the tag, add the following code: . This tells the browser to use the styles from the "styles.css" file to style your web page.
Creating a JavaScript file: Similar to creating a CSS file, create a new file in your text editor. Copy the generated ChatGPT JavaScript code and paste it into the new file. Save this file in the same folder as your HTML file, specifying the file name with the .js extension. For example, you can name the file "script.js". Now you need to link this JavaScript file to your HTML file. To do this, open the HTML file and before the closing tag, add the following code: <script src="script.js"></script>
This tells the browser to use the scripts from the "script.js" file on your web page.
Site testing: Open your HTML file in a web browser and check how your site works. If everything is done correctly, you should see the structure of the site, the styling set in the CSS file, and the functionality set in the JavaScript file.
P.S. If you are having difficulty, ask ChatGPT to compile all the instructions into one ready-made code.
