🖼️ Tile by Nehir – Bootstrap Layout Starter

Welcome to your Bootstrap layout activity! This project is part of LiveLab 5 in the Global Career Accelerator.

You’ll be building a responsive image layout inspired by a fictional design studio called Tile by Nehir, using Bootstrap and AI tools like GitHub Copilot.


🚀 Quick Start in Codespaces

Use the starter launcher (index.html in the root) to preview your activity files in Live Server.

✅ To launch your activity:

  1. In Codespaces, right-click index.html in the root folder
    1. Choose the option that says either:
    • Preview with Live Server
    • or Show Preview
      (the wording might be slightly different — either one works!)
  2. A new browser tab or side panel will open with two links:
    • 🖼️ Tile by Nehir Starter → opens tile-activity/tile.html
    • 🌀 Parallax Level-Up → opens level-up-parallax/parallax.html

📁 What Files to Edit

✅ You should only edit:

  • tile-activity/tile.html and tile-style.css — main layout activity
  • level-up-parallax/parallax.html and parallax-style.css — bonus challenge (optional)

🚫 Do not edit:

  • index.html in the root — it’s just a launcher
  • Stylesheets outside your assigned activity folder

🧰 Tools You Already Have in Codespaces

You’re already set up with everything you need:

  • GitHub Copilot is ready to use — try asking it to suggest layout improvements or fix spacing
  • Live Preview is built-in — just right-click your HTML file and choose Preview with Live Server or Show Preview
    (Either one works — the option name might vary a little)
  • ✅ No extra setup needed — just start building!

🧠 What You’ll Learn

  • How to use Bootstrap’s grid system (container, row, col-*)
  • How to apply utility classes for spacing, alignment, and image resizing
  • How to combine Bootstrap with custom styling
  • How to use AI tools like GitHub Copilot or ChatGPT to improve layout, debug issues, or style your code

🧪 What You’ll Do

During the lab:

  1. Add the Bootstrap CDN to your HTML file (if not already added)
  2. Wrap the images in a Bootstrap grid (container, row, col-*)
  3. Apply utility classes like:
    • img-fluid (responsive images)
    • mb-3, g-4, text-center, p-3 (spacing/alignment)
  4. Use AI prompts from Copilot or the Resource Doc
  5. Optionally: try hover effects, add cards, or complete the Parallax challenge

✅ Your Core Goals

  • Build a responsive layout that works on mobile and desktop
  • Use Bootstrap layout classes and utility styles
  • Use at least one AI prompt during the activity
  • Share one improvement you made with help from AI

💬 Team Prompts & Reflections

  • What Bootstrap class fixed a layout issue?
  • What did Copilot suggest?
  • What worked and what didn’t from AI-generated code?
  • What’s one layout tweak you’re proud of?

🔼 Bonus Challenge: Level Up Options

Already nailed your tile layout? Try one of these:

📐 Gallery Layout

Use the wireframe example and prompt AI to match it:

“Make this layout: 1 column on mobile, 2 on tablet, 4 on desktop.”

✨ Parallax Scroll Effect

Try a layout where the background scrolls at a different speed than the text.

🌀 Start the Parallax Challenge


Happy building!
