Did you see the simple, clean portfolio website in the introduction video? What if you knew how to code and design a website just like that one completely from scratch? Wouldn't that be amazing?That's where I come in. I'm here to teach you HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and Node.js step-by-step so you can build that website and more.What if you want to build a completely different website - maybe for a client or a personal venture? No problem! This course will teach you the skills to build clean, simple websites at the drop of a hat and host them online.I studied computer science at university, learning to code countless algorithms and data structures, which is extremely intellectually rigorous, and I can still say learning to build and launch a website in less than a few hours is the single most empowering skill that I've learned as a developer.In order to become an empowered web developer who is capable of building websites in the future, these are the skills this course will help you master:Setting up your computer to codeSetting up a website project with a front-end that users will see and a back-end for processing dataHTML fundamentalsCSS fundamentalsJavaScript fundamentalsStyling for desktop, mobile, and varying screen sizesLaunching your website live online through Google Cloud hosting (one the most professional ways to host your website files online)Adding imagesAdding unique fontsAdding iconsBuilding a sliding menuCSS animations for added designInput forms for collecting user input dataSending data from the back-end to the front-end as JSONWorking with Node.js packages (very valuable skill)Building re-usable components, so you don't retype the same code more than once (good developer practices)JavaScript functionsAll the skills necessary to interpret your learning and build your own websitesAre you ready to begin or do you want to know more? If you need more reasons to learn to build websites, then read on…Why should you learn HTML, CSS, and JavaScript?Building websites allows you to do creative work from anywhere in the world, and with improvements in skill, it can become a lucrative career. HTML, CSS, and JavaScript are the most practical and modern languages to begin learning if you want to become a web developer.This course will take you from knowing nothing about computer science to building and launching your very own website in under 6 hours. After seven years of coding, I designed a course that I think is the most useful, practical, and simple introduction to learning how to code.2) Why should you choose this course?Reason #1: You'll learn by building a portfolio websiteI believe the best way to learn is by doing. This course teaches the essential web development languages of HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and Node.js by having you build a highly practical project - a portfolio website.By the end of the course, you'll have a live portfolio website where you can showcase your own work as a web developer, designer, photographer, product manager, painter, or any other theme you can think of! You can change the fonts and text to fit your personal style and have something tangible to show to the world.Reason #2: I'm the right teacher for youI struggled A LOT when I was learning to code. I am not the smartest person on Earth. For that reason, I explain things simply and carefully. I am good at explaining things in a way that anyone can understand. Coding is hard! Debugging (solving errors in your code) can be frustrating and take tons of hours of Googling! I empathize with my students because I was there once too, learning to code just like you.I have a Bachelors degree from Brown University in Computer Science and Visual Art. I've worked as a software engineer and as a user experience designer for over seven years.Learning to easily build websites has been one of the biggest breakthroughs I've made as a developer, so I want to share that knowledge in an accessible format with new developers.3) This course is for you if…… you're a complete beginner and you want to learn to build websites… you already checked out some free resources online on HTML and CSS, but you're struggling to build a full website with best practices and launch it live… you are a designer who wants to expand your skills into HTML, CSS, JavaScript, and Node.js… you are a professional who is tired of Squarespace, Wix, and other web builder tools and want to easily and simply build a website yourself from scratch… you're an an aspiring software engineer and you want to take a course that will be a great introduction to coding
