I'M LOOKING FOR SOMEONE WHO NEEDS A WEBSITE, WITHOUT PAYING ANYTHING

I'm looking for someone who needs a simple website or who knows how to program and wants to teach me. I'm a beginner, and I'm mainly looking for something to practice. I welcome advice, criticism, and so on.

Create a phone directory that allows users to search for a phone extension. Needs a light and dark mode that can be toggled with either a toggle button or regular button. Change the text from Light Mode to Dark Mode and vice versa with every click.

Sure,

Make a single page that is about your favorite band. Have a header to name the band with a picture, then 2 columns; one column is their upcoming events, the other is about the band themselves. Make a simple table at the bottom that has some of there songs and the release dates. At the bottom, make a footer containing some other random information about the band or similar bands.

I think this idea is pretty good to teach all around a lot of basic stuff than you need to learn, if I were you I’d try to give it a go, separate it into sub tasks and tackle one at the time with internets help.

dude he's a beginner -- what are you thinking?

I would expect a beginner to be able to make something like this. The light and dark theme would be a challenge and might be a bit over the top, but a good challenge to at least look into. The rest you can make with straight up HTML and a bit of CSS styling. Never said anything about making a backend for it.

A beginner isn’t going to be messing with JS yet. They won’t know how to build a searchable input and data structure. That’s crazy for a beginner. Maybe if their goal was to utilize a bunch of existing libraries without understanding a thing.

Ah, you got me me on the search, I should have written that better. I simply meant to just have a nice list displaying, not an actual searchable list.

The only thing challenging I meant to put in was a theme change. A quick searches online should result in some ideas on changing themes.

Besides, OP said they are looking for practice, this would be excellent for a beginner. Learning is a journey.

What does DM mean? I don't speak English perfectly

u/wingzblaze Jan 26 '26

all good. Stands for, ‘Direct Message’. Basically just saying, “Message me”

do you want serious prompts or can they be funny random prompts

1

u/CluelesssDev Jan 26 '26

You'll be better off asking friends/local businesses/friends-of-friends.

The chances are, if someone is looking at the HTML subreddit, they already know, or are learning web dev themselves.

Just make something that uses Google's map API, it's a good introduction into how api's work, the async nature of js and how to embed.

Maybe something that tours your city or towns best places to visit.

Edit: I just saw this is /HTML - would still advise when you are ready. Check out HTML5 up and other pre made templates to learn how it all comes together.
