What You'll Learn

Learn HTML & CSS

Learn the primary markup language for the World Wide Web, HTML, and its modern style language, cascading style sheets, or CSS. In the first course of the series, students will learn language syntax, layouts, and media queries for responsive web design. HTML and CSS are the two core languages that enable us to create any type of site.

Courses: Introduction to Front End Development, Advanced HTML & CSS

Introduction to Javascript

At the heart of any website lies a technology that enables us to produce interactive user experiences. Gone are the days where each time the user clicks on a button the entire page is uncomfortably reloaded. We are now able to interact, animate, and perform advanced tasks within a single web page. In this introduction, we will learn about the basics of programming and how to enable a rich user experience.

Courses: Introduction to Javascript

Advanced Developer Tools

Having learned the essential tools from the introductory course, we will continue our quest to master all the tools available to web developers that enable faster and higher quality website development. With Git we'll keep every single change we've made in our code safely in the cloud. NPM enables us to effortlessly add the dozens of dependencies that any modern website consists of.

Courses: Advanced HTML & CSS

Advanced JavaScript

Once we've covered the basics of JavaScript, we'll dive a bit deeper to take advantage of the rich capabilities that JavaScript has to offer.
