The web is your canvas. Let's paint it.

Unleash your creativity and learn how to design websites that captivate.
Ever wondered how websites go from plain text to visually appealing interfaces? The magic lies in HTML and CSS. HTML, short for Hypertext Markup Language, acts like the skeleton of a website, defining its content with headings, paragraphs, images, and links. CSS, or Cascading Style Sheets, is the designer, taking that structure and adding visual flair like font size, colors, and layout. We will be covering these ideas in our first units of study, but if you need some extra help or want to learn on your own, check out this tutorial video.

Struggling to build websites from scratch? Bootstrap can be your hero! It's a free toolkit that simplifies web development. Think of it as a pre-built toolbox with design templates and code snippets for common website elements like buttons, forms, and navigation menus. Bootstrap also makes websites responsive, meaning they adapt to any screen size, from desktops to phones. We start the second semester showing you how Bootstrap can streamline the web development process! This tutorial video covers the ideas found in the course.

Want to add some life to your website? JavaScript (JS) is the secret ingredient! Unlike HTML and CSS that focus on structure and style, JavaScript brings interactivity. It's the coding language behind those cool animations, clickable elements, and dynamic features that make web pages feel engaging. We finish the course learning how JS can power up our websites.
