Editing this page

This is a plain HTML page. It can be edited with Notepad, TextEdit, or any code editor. Make a backup copy before editing.

Add a project: copy one complete <a class="item">...</a> block and paste it inside the section where it belongs.
Change a project: edit the text between <h3> and </h3>, the description between <p> and </p>, and the web address in href="...".
Remove a project: delete the complete card from <a class="item"> through </a>.
Change a section: edit the heading between <h2> and </h2>, and the smaller note beside it.
Save correctly: keep the filename index.html and make sure the editor does not add .txt to the end.
Test locally: double-click the saved file and click each changed link before uploading it to a website.

For a new card, use this pattern and replace these three sample values:

1. The web address in href. 2. The project title. 3. The short description.
