Redesign of the Computer Science Department Website | Ala-Too International University Project Description

This project represents a redesign of the official Computer Science Department website (CS AIU). The main goal is to update the visual style of the pages, improve navigation usability, and adapt the interface to a modern design stack — while preserving the structure and content of the original site.

The redesign covers key sections of the website, including:

Home — the department’s main landing page;

Department / News — a section with department news and events (including Career Day);

Software — a page showcasing software projects of the department;

other supporting pages that share the unified CSS stack.

Main Objectives

Migrate the layout to a unified CSS stack, including colors.css, text.css, ui.css, and individual page-CSS files (e.g., news.css);

Improve visual perception using a grid-based structure and modern UI patterns;

Enhance text readability and contrast;

Adapt the design for different screen sizes (desktop and tablet);

Organize commits meaningfully and structure the repository for educational use.

Technologies

The project is built using a classic front-end stack:

HTML5

CSS3 (Grid, Flexbox, Modern UI stack)

960 Grid System

Custom CSS files:

colors.css

text.css

ui.css

home.css, news.css, modern.css, etc.

The project maintains the original page structure but improves the overall appearance, optimizes styles, and allows for future scalability.

How to Run the Project

Clone the repository:

git clone https://github.com//.git

Navigate to the project directory:

Open the index.html file using Live Server in Visual Studio Code or open it directly in your browser.
