So you want to learn to design and build websites? Let’s talk about where should you start, what you need to learn, apps you’ll need, industry terminology, and more. There are two sides to creating websites: design and coding. At Noble Desktop you can enroll in individual classes or full certificate programs focused on design, coding, or both.
The front-end of a website is what you see in a web browser. It’s the content, appearance, and interactivity seen in a webpage. To code the front-end you’ll use HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. Below are explanations of common web coding topics:
The foundation of all webpages is HTML & CSS. HTML marks up or labels content such as headings, paragraphs, lists, links, and more. CSS styles the content based on your markup. HTML & CSS are easier to learn because they are coding, not full-blown programming. HTML is the easiest because there’s less code and complexity. CSS takes a bit longer to master because there’s more to it and it has some concepts that need to be understood for things to work properly. CSS continues to get new features faster than HTML, with newer layout techniques such as flexbox and grid. CSS continues to develop to give developers more control over the layout and appearance of a webpage.
You can get started with the basics of HTML and CSS in only 3 hours in our Intro to HTML & CSS class. If you need to learn it more in depth, take our Web Development Level 1 class, or for the most comprehensive program take our Front-End Web Development Certificate.
You can add animation and interactive functionality to webpages using JavaScript. JavaScript is the lord of a webpage, and can change both content (HTML) and styling (CSS) within a page. If anything needs to change after a page had loaded, it’s typically JavaScript that will be responsible for doing so.
Instead of having to write all the code yourself, many JavaScript libraries allow you to use pre-made functionality. This will enable you to create things faster (by writing less code) without re-inventing the wheel. The most commonly used library is jQuery because it's so versatile. The best JavaScript library for animation is GreenSock (also called GSAP).
jQuery is like the swiss army knife of JavaScript libraries. It allows you to do so many different things. Many developers have packaged up their jQuery code as plugins, allowing you to do even more (slideshows, form validation, showing/hiding) without having to write much code yourself.
From our hands-on training style to world-class instructors and proprietary curriculum, we deliver a learning experience our alumni can be proud of.
