planet to improve their web appearance.
  −
* For a modern website there are the things that are important:
  −
** Colors - a constant color scheme should be used across all websites so that it will create a unified view
  −
** Images - good quality images should be used and should be scaled so that loading time can be decreased.
  −
** Navigation - The navigation should be clear. A user should know where he/she is going.
  −
** Grid based layout -  we should use grid based layout for so that columns and boxes feel balanced.
  −
** Responsive - It is now common to access web site from other devices so website must be responsive.
  −
** Loading time – Enabling compression, optimizing css, reducing number of plugins, minifying resources and minimizing   HTTP requests will improve loading time.
  −
** SEO
  −

* '''What is the timeline for development of your project? The Summer of Code work period is from mid-May  to mid-August; tell us what you will be working on each week. (As the summer goes on, you and your mentor will adjust your schedule, but it's good to have a plan at the beginning so you have an idea of where you're headed.) Note that you should probably plan to have something "working and 90% done" by the midterm evaluation (end of June); the last steps always take longer than you think, and we will consider cancelling projects which are not mostly working by then.'''
