Inspiration
Our website theme was inspired by our pod name, the Pipelining Penguins, and the clever penguins from the Madagascar film franchise! You can see fun animated penguins on the landing page of our site.
What it does
The blog has cards in the homepage, as well as a menu to guide to different pages of the website. For each of the three team members, there is a portfolio with an About Me , Work Experience , Projects , Hobbies , and Interactive Map, section. There is also a Contact page in which you can contact any of the three team members.
