Become a Front-end Developer

This module encompasses everything from the basics of networks to the principles of front-end web development with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. After taking this module, not only will we be comfortable learning any web technology, but we'll also have a better idea of what different technologies are out there and what we want to learn. We'll also become familiar with version control systems, which are a global industry standard.

Web Development: A Primer

## Introduction
Let's get into the basics of coding a website. 

### Client-side
The source code of a website can be broken down into two parts: client-side and server-side. The code on the 'client' side runs on the client computer's browser and handles what the website *looks* like, how it requests data from the server, and how it interacts with temporary and local storage on the client machine. This includes but is not limited to selecting and styling user interface components, creating layouts, navigation, form validation, and cache handling. Client-side languages include **HTML**, **CSS**, and **JavaScript**.
