NOTES

"Do you want to build web pages but have no prior experience? This friendly guide is the perfect place to start. You'll begin at square one, learning how the web and web pages work, and then steadily build from there. By the end of the book, you'll have the skills to create a simple site with multicolumn pages that adapt for mobile devices. Each chapter provides exercises to help you learn various techniques and short quizzes to make sure you understand key concepts. This thoroughly revised sixth edition is ideal for students and professionals of all backgrounds and skill levels. It's simple and clear enough for beginners yet thorough enough to be a useful reference for experienced developers keeping their skills up-to-date. Build HTML pages with text, links, images, tables, and forms -- Use style sheets (CSS) for formatting text, colors, backgrounds, page layout, and simple animation effects -- Use CSS Flexbox and Grid Layout for sophisticated and flexible page designs -- Learn the ins and outs of responsive web design to make web pages look great on all devices -- Get an introductory lesson in JavaScript programming, and use it to add functionality to web pages -- Understand the ways in which JavaScript has become central to the web development workflow -- Create and optimize web images so they'll download as quickly as possible -- Get to know the superpowers of the SVG format -- The sixth edition features a completely rewritten and expanded JavaScript section written by Aaron Gustafson that provides more opportunities to practice writing code."--Publisher
