Brief Introduction

Build Simple Custom Websites From Scratch with Completely Free Tools

Description

In this course, you'll learn how to build a simple, custom website from scratch. Not a template-based site that will look like everyone else's. You'll build your website from nothing… in raw code, the way you want, then take it live on the Web.

You're going to learn a lot about HTML and CSS, the languages of content and design in web development. You won't be a professional web developer at the end of this course. You will have built a rock solid foundation in HTML and CSS. And, if you decide you want to learn more, you'll be well prepared to tackle more advanced web development courses.

If developing some simple websites for yourself and your friends is all you want, you'll learn all you need from this course. You'll also learn about some resources that will help you further develop your skills on your own.

You won't need to buy any special software. You'll use free tools that I'll guide you through setting up. The only cost will be an affordable web hosting service to take your site live on the Web. I'll help you with that too, when the time comes.

And when you're done, you'll have a custom website that you built yourself, live on the Web, sharing what you have to say with the world.
