My First Dynamic Site

I have been going through the Treehouse Fullstack JavaScript track over the last 2 months in-between full-time work and a young family. I have just completed the Basic Node.js server lessons and wanted to take a week off to create something.

Introducing www.wearacoat.com

It is pretty simple, however it is using jQuery AJAX, HTTP requests to remote API's and all kinds of complicated stuff that I have been wanting to be able to do for a few years, but never knew how to start.

Overall I am very happy with the treehouse pacing and content, which has only had one 'now draw the rest of the owl' moment for me. I would like some more practise projects intermixed between the lectures. Some competing platforms have this and I have found it to be great to be able to go back and use a practise project as revision to stop me forgetting a topic.

Thank you Treehouse team.

Congrats on finding the time to put up a real project that you wanted to do! That's awesome. I'm from Portland, Oregon, so it will probably always tell me to wear a coat :D

I'm confused about the "dynamic" aspect of the site. I see the cursor becomes a pointer over the images, but nothing seems to happen when I click.

Am I missing something?
