Okay, so “fast cars red,” huh? Sounds like a fun project. Let me tell you how I went about tackling this. It all started with a simple idea, I just wanted to see… well, fast red cars!
The Idea
First, I needed to figure out what exactly I was aiming for. Was it a game? A screensaver? Nah, I just wanted a simple display, something to throw up on a spare monitor.
Getting Started
I decided to keep it super basic. No fancy frameworks or anything. Just plain old HTML, CSS, and a touch of JavaScript. I figured that would be the easiest and quickest way to get this rolling.
The HTML Structure
The HTML was a breeze. A simple `div` to hold everything, and then…well, that was pretty much it! I knew I’d be adding the cars dynamically, so I didn’t need much in the HTML to start.
The structure looks like this:
<body>
<div id="container"></div>
</body>
Styling with CSS
Next up, the CSS. I needed to make sure the container took up the whole screen and set a dark background, you know, to make those red cars really pop. I also wanted to make sure everything was centered, because, aesthetics!
body {
margin: 0;
overflow: hidden; / Hide scrollbars /
background-color: #333; / Dark grey /
#container {
width: 100vw; / Full viewport width /
height: 100vh; / Full viewport height /
display: flex;
justify-content: center;
align-items: center;
flex-wrap: wrap;
The Magic: JavaScript
Now for the fun part: JavaScript! I needed a way to add the cars to the screen. I went with a simple approach: I grabbed some images of fast red cars. I literally just Googled “fast red car” and saved a bunch of images.
Then, I created a JavaScript function to add a car image to the container. It was pretty straightforward:
function addCar() {
const container = *('container');
const img = *('img');
* = 'images/car' + *(*() 9) + '.jpg';//I had 9 images named car0 to car8
* = '200px'; // Set a reasonable size
* = 'auto';
*='10px';
*(img);
I created this function and just randomly assigned images to it, and set their size.
Making it Run
Finally, I needed to call this function repeatedly. I used `setInterval` to add a new car every, say, half a second. Just enough to fill the screen with red cars.
setInterval(addCar, 500);
The Result
And that’s it! I ran the code, and boom! My screen started filling up with fast red cars. Mission accomplished! It’s not the most sophisticated thing in the world, but it was a fun little project, and it did exactly what I wanted. I sat back, watched for a while, and then moved on to the next thing. Sometimes, the simple projects are the most satisfying.
