Course overview

Demand for web skills is widespread and continues to rise across every industry and continues to rise.

You’ll start off with learning how to create a visual user experience — from concept to a fully-fledged user interface that is ready to be handed off for development. Next, you'll learn how to effectively create the structure of a website using semantic HTML and progress to styling with CSS and responsive layouts that work well on any device — phone, tablet, desktop or anything in between. Finally, you'll discover how to leverage JavaScript to create dynamic and beautiful user interfaces that respond to user's actions. Along the way, you'll also learn about code editors, Search Engine Optimisation (SEO) tips and how to work with the major browser Developer Tools.
