Syllabus
Course introduction
Welcome to the first course of the 'Responsive website development and design' specialisation!
HTML
We start the course by looking at how to set up a dev environment, build a HTML navbar and how to embed images and create lists using HTML.<p>Also we'll create properly structured HTML documents and have a look at the world's first web page. Looking forward to working with you this week! Matthew, Marco and Kate
CSS
Welcome to the second module of 'Responsive website basics'. <p>In this section of the course we will have a look at linking external CSS files to your HTML documents, controlling fonts with CSS and using CSS to customise hyperlink formatting and to control text layout. We will also install the bootstrap library and implement a responsive grid layout- Enjoy! - Matthew, Marco and Kate
Beginning JavaScript
Welcome to the third module of 'Responsive website basics'. <p>In this module we will write simple JavaScript programs and learn how to write programs that can respond to user input such as clicking on HTML elements. We will also take a look at JavaScript functions and use jQuery to manipulate web pages. Finally, you will learn how to write your own javaScript functions including anonymous functions. Looking forward to working with you this week! - Matthew and Marco
Going deeper into JavaScript
Welcome to the final module of 'Responsive website basics'. <p>In this final section of the course we will define JavaScript variables and write simple JavaScript programs that use and change the values of variables. We'll also write if statements to control the flow of a JavaScript program, use boolean variables in conjunction with if statements and write javaScript in the context of moderately complex web applications. Enjoy! - Matthew and Marco
