Step 2: Create a separate CSS file with the name style.css and link it in the <head> of the html file using the link tag. As there are two separate files for his project we need to connect them and this is how we do it. We have also used the icons from Font-awesome, so you need to use the CDN link for our Fontawesome.

Now let’s begin adding structure for our google homepage.

  • Create a container for the header of our page using the div tag and add class=”header” to it.
  • In the header portion we will add our menu items using the span tag to add an inline container used to mark up a part of a text, or a part of a document. The span tag is used to add two button in the header- Gmail and Images. Add class=”menuItems” to both the span tags.

  • Inside the header, next to Images we will create an app section using span tag with class=”menuItems” which will show the the following icons when the mouse is hovered on it- Search, Maps, Drive, Calendar, Photo and Keep. You can use Fontawesome to add the icons.
  • All the icons of the app section are contained in separate div tags with class=”appLogo”. If some sources for the app logo do not work then you can download the app logos and store them in your project folder to directly add its source name into you project.
  • Create a span with class=”menuItems” and add the user image source to be displayed at the right side of the app section.

We have now added the basic structure of the header of our google homepage.

OUTPUT:

Without adding style to our header it looks like this-

After we add style to our header using CSS which will be explained below, the header will look like this-

Let us now complete the basic structure of our google homepage by making the center part which will include logo, search bar and buttons.

HTML code to add google image with search box and buttons is as follows:-

<div class="container" style="text-align: center;">
        <img src="https://www.google.com/images/branding/googlelogo/1x/googlelogo_color_272x92dp.png">

        <!-- search box -->
        <div class="search">
            <input type="text" class="input"name="SearchBox">
            <img class="voiceSearch" src="https://www.gstatic.com/images/branding/googlemic/2x/googlemic_color_24dp.png">
        </div>
        <!-- buttons -->
        <div class="btn">
            <button class="btns">Google Search</button>
            <button class="btns">I'm Feeeling Lucky</button>
        </div>
</div>

Understanding how to add google image, search box and buttons for the center part of our google homepage clone:

  • Create a container using div tag and assign class=”container” to it. Add inline CSS using style attribute for the div tag and set text-alignment property to center so that all the elements inside the div appear at the center of our webpage.
  • Add the google image using image tag and and the image source using src attribute. This will display the google image at the center of our google homepage.
  • Inside the main div tag nest a div for the search box and give class=”search”. Use input tag for type=”text”. Then add image of voice search option which will be displayed inside the search box.
  • Nesting another div inside the main div, now create the last two buttons for ‘Google Search’ and ‘I’m Feeling Lucky’ using the button tag. Assign classes to both the buttons, class=”btns”. Close the respective div tags.

Understanding how to style the basic structure of our Google Homepage clone:

  • Using the body element add font-family of “Arial,sans-serif “.
  • Now we will target html elements with class=”header” which we gave for our menu items in the header section, using the dot selector, set the property values for the following attributes: font-size:13px, text-align: right, padding-top: 22px , padding-right: 10px.
  • Targeting the html elements with class “menuitems” using dot operator, style them by setting values of attributes, font-size: 13px, padding-right: 10px, padding left:20px, and display: inline-block which will display menu items horizontally instead of vertically.
  • Now we will style the links that are provided in the header by setting value of text-decoration attribute as none and adding color black (#000000) to the text.

  • Styling the html elements with class=”menu” , we will change the background color to white with no border, no outline, box-shadow as none and padding-right as none.
  • For the html elements with Class=”dropdown-content” , we will keep the width: 270px, padding: 28px, margin-right: 82px,
    border: 1px solid #ccc, box-shadow: 0 2px 10px rgba(0,0,0,.2) to add shadow to the box, display: none, z-index: 1 which defines the order of overlapping HTML elements, position: absolute and right: 0.

As you can see there is still some styling left to do for our google homepage clone, lets move forward and add styling to our buttons, app logos in the app section, user-image and search bar.

Now we will add styling to our app logos in the following way:-

  • The text will be aligned at the center, display: inline-block which will allow us to set the width of the app logos, width:86px, padding-top: 5px, padding-bottom: 5px.

{
    text-align: center;
    display: inline-block;
    width: 86px;
    padding-top: 5px;
    padding-bottom: 5px;

  • The image tags for the app logos with class=”menuItemLogo”, will have the following property values:- width: 50px, height: 50px, text-align: center, padding-top: 5px, padding-bottom: 5px.

 

The user image will be styled in this way:-

  • The border-radius property for the user image with class=”userImage” will be set to 50% along with margin: -1px, overflow: hidden, position: relative, which will place the user image relative to its current position without changing the layout around it, height: 32px, width: 32px, vertical-align, middle.
.userImage
{
    border-radius: 50%;
    margin: -1px;
    overflow: hidden;
    position: relative;
    height: 32px;
    width: 32px;
    vertical-align: middle;
}

Now to add further styling:

  • To style the search bar for our google homepage, we will set the font-size: 13px, margin: auto, margin-top: 30px, padding: 14px, width: 600px, color: #222, border: 1px solid #dfe1e5, border-radius: 24px, outline: none.
  • To style the google image with search box and buttons we will set the padding-top: 140px and padding-bottom: 160px.
  • When we hover over the search bar, the styling will be done by using the box-shadow property to add shadow behind the search bar. Set it as box-shadow: 0 1px 6px 0 rgba(32,33,36,0.28) and its border-color: rgba(223,225,229,0).
  • For the search bar input, we will set the styling as text-align: left as the text will start inputting from the left side in the search bar, width:95%, border: none and outline: none.
  • The voice search icon will have the following the styles set- float: right, height: 24px and width: 24px.
