Fundamentals of Web Development

In this lesson, we are going to take a look at one of the most fundamental and important web development tools: HTML. We will be learning about where our web browsers get HTML and how they utilize them. Additionally, we will also start writing our first few lines of HTML!

In this lesson, we will start looking at how to use CSS. Not only will we be writing our first CSS code to stylize our website, but we will also be taking a closer look at how attributes work by learning about anchor tags and we will learn about class and id attributes.

In this lesson, we’re going to learn about text formatting. We can format text using a variety of different variables: size, font, weight, and so on. In this class, we will be taking a look at each of these properties and figuring out how to adjust them.

In this lesson, we will be writing our first JavaScript code! We will begin by learning about what JavaScript is and when and where it is used. Afterward, we will start looking at code snippets that will help us make our website more interactive.

In this lesson, we will start our midterm project! Our midterm project will be to create a website that has an interactable music band. To do this, we will have to use all of the HTML, CSS, and JavaScript knowledge that we’ve learned so far.

In this lesson, we will continue to work on our musical midterm. We are going to debug our code as well as adding some final touches like incorporating audio.

In this lesson, we are going to explore how to incorporate color by making a coloring website! On top of getting to learn a little bit more about CSS and HTML, we will learn how color values work and how to use them. All while making a fun game!

In this lesson, we are going to take a look at DOM, Document Object Model. We will learn more about DOM by visually organizing our information into cards, which can be used to add some organized images and text slots to our website. Cards will be used to bring some spice to our superhero card website!

In this lesson, we’ll learn more about JavaScript by looking at a popular library: jQuery. We’ll be using everything we’ve learned so far, plus this cool new library, to start making more interactive website components like slideshows. We’ll be using slideshows to make a fun website about our favorite scientists!

In this lesson, we’re going to learn about where and how to use videos on our website. We will create a fun arcade station that plays the Super Mario Bros game. We can do this by using our HTML and CSS knowledge to create a box and use what we just learned about embedding videos to add Mario gameplay in.

In this lesson, we’ll be wrapping up a lot of the work we’ve done. We’re going to put our skills to the test by creating a note web app. Additionally, we are going to learn a few extra tools to make our life easier, such as append and prepend.

In this lesson, we’ll be finishing up our final project, Quick Notes! Not only will we be debugging any last-minute problems, but we will also be adding some final functionality to our web app to make sure it’s in top condition.
