Problem

The website was not loading with proper styling due to a mismatch in the CSS file reference. The index.html file was linking to styles.css, but the actual CSS file in the repository is named style.css (without the 's'). This caused a 404 error when the browser tried to load the stylesheet, resulting in the website displaying with default browser styling instead of the intended dark theme portfolio layout.

Solution

Fixed the CSS file reference in index.html by changing:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="styles.css">

to:

<link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css">

Result

The website now loads correctly with the beautiful dark theme styling, including:

  • Dark blue gradient background with light text
  • Styled navigation with blue accent colors and hover effects
  • Proper typography and spacing
  • All CSS animations and transitions working as designed

Before fix: Website displayed with default browser styling (unstyled HTML)
After fix: Website displays with the intended sophisticated dark portfolio theme

Fixed website layout

This was a minimal one-line change that resolves the core layout issue described in the problem statement.

This pull request was created as a result of the following prompt from Copilot chat.

The website layout for the repository 'thepiyushkumar.github.io' is not loading correctly. Upon inspecting the 'index.html' and 'style.css' files, the issue might be due to a mismatch in the linked CSS file name or other styling issues. The 'index.html' references 'styles.css', but the actual file is named 'style.css'. This discrepancy could result in the CSS not being applied, leading to layout problems. Additionally, there might be issues with animations, transitions, or other CSS properties that need to be reviewed and corrected.
