Web Development Essentials: HTML, CSS & the Browser
Practical web skills, built project by project. Study at your own pace, practice with each lesson and finish with a useful piece of work.
Learn by doing, not just watching.
Description
Understand how websites work and build a clean multi-page site using semantic HTML and foundational CSS.
Start at the part that makes every other web skill easier: understanding what the browser renders and why. You will learn the roles of HTML, CSS, files, links and web hosting, then build accessible page structures and style them with confidence. By the end, you will publish a coherent multi-page personal website and know how to inspect and correct common layout problems rather than guessing.
What you will learn
- Explain the basic browser, server and website workflow.
- Write semantic HTML for clear content hierarchy and accessible forms.
- Style type, spacing, colors and layouts with reusable CSS rules.
- Organize and publish a simple multi-page website.
