This project was designed to be fun.The information provided is basic, the quiz questions will give a user who is familiar with the TV show Father Ted, and those who are not, a fun way to learn some trivia about the show.
The theme chosen for this project was based on TV Show Father Ted. An irreverent comedy about Irish priests. The background was chosen to represent 'fire and brimstone'. The colours chosen were simple to compliment this background and the hero image on the landing page.

All code was run through a validator and returned zero errors. These validator sites were:
Screenshots of all these results can be found below. All the warnings about unused variables can be ignored as these variables are used in other files.
This website allowed me to select a number of devices with different size screens and viewports and see how my website looked on each of them.
