    Hello, I am doing a project on making a website. It's not gonna be a big website, it won't even have a hosting, just run it from local computer. Couples of html files, css, folders, and some scripts. It just needs to be a small website that's unique and innovative. Can you guys give me some ideas on what I should do?

    Website hosted on your own local computer might not be the best idea. Check first if you have a static IP in your location otherwise every time you reset a modem your website will become inaccessible as you will need to update DNS.

    For the idea, you are best to create a website about something you like to do.

    if you don't know how to use web host, Then the best project is go for a free web hosting, like www.000webhost.com. Because it will tell you how web host works. If you know, then use your Own idea.

    You must have a goal before designing a website, I suggest you think about it yourself. What do you want to do after making this website. As you are making this local hosted so I dont think that you are willing to earn from it. So first make a plan dude :p Good luck

    it's better if you'll use xampp as a server for your local site and use .php extension for easy updates and maintenance. You need to separate each header, sidebar, footer, and some scripts using php includes.

    I do the same thing when I'm learning website. I do local sites for testing purposes
