Introductory Course to HTML and CSS - Part 1



Introduction:

HTML and CSS are markup languages and the building blocks that make up the web. This course does not follow the usual pattern of focusing on language syntax because just by learning the syntax would not enable us to create a webpage from a design. We need to know where to start and how to approach the task like a front-end developer.

What will we learn in this Course?

In this course we will learn how to

  • how to implement that in HTML and CSS.
  • how to handle responsive design techniques to make the web page mobile friendly
