Web Development 101

Congrats! You've taken the first step to learning how to build a website — showing up with a willing attitude. With those two attributes, you can do pretty much anything you set your mind to, but for now, let's build a web site!

What's the plan?

Our time together is limited. For that reason, the instruction found here will be focused on the must have knowledge, and you will walk away with a site open to extension to your heart's content. Resources will be provided.

Soon, you'll start to notice that web programs are a lot like Legos. Every new piece of knowledge you get easily fits onto your existing knowledge base. And the more you add on, the more extensible the program gets!

What we'll build today

Today, we will cover some of the basic building blocks of HTML, CSS, and Git/Github.

You will walk away with a personal site deployed on the web for all to see.

How exciting! Let's get to work!
