" - Take this course before taking any other HTML, CSS or JavaScript courses!"

This course is perfect for students who are thinking about learning the 3 languages of the web: HTML, CSS & JavaScript, but don't want to get dropped in at the deep end. Coding for Beginners 2 has been specifically designed as a generic, foundation level course, to introduce you to the core web technologies and many of the common coding concepts that you'll go on to use in whichever language you choose to master next - giving you a real head start before you start mastering a dedicated language or web speciality.

With over 100 lectures and more than 15 hours of video, this comprehensive course will teach you the very basics of web technologies, web languages & web development, from the ground up. Starting with a whirlwind history of the World Wide Web and showing you that the internet and the web are not the same thing, and moving on to foundation level theory on the web's core technologies and languages, practical 'code along' exercises, fun projects and great bonus content - Coding for Beginners 2 will take you on a relaxed, friendly and gentle learning journey from absolute zero to confident beginner level web developer!
