HTML and CSS are at the core of any website, so understanding exactly how they work and how they combine to create interactive and responsive web content is the main focus of this course.
During the two days, we'll build up your knowledge in the syntax and terminology involved in HTML 5 and how to correctly display any type of content. We’ll then look at how to incorporate external resources within your HTML document and how to structure your document and files so that styles can be applied effectively.
You'll learn how to use CSS to add color and design to your page, work with fonts, and learn about the different methods available to manipulate the layout of your content. We’ll show you the tricks of the trade that will allow you to write your CSS, so that you can style your page exactly how you want with the minimum amount of code required. You’ll also learn how to make your websites responsive, keeping them desktop, mobile and tablet-friendly.
Our HTML & CSS course is available as a private training session that can be delivered via Virtual Classroom or at a location of your choice in South Africa.
