Web Developer Course

Great! In this lesson, we will cover the basics of web development, including front-end vs. back-end development and the basic tools that you will need to get started. Web development refers to the process of building websites and web applications. It involves a range of tasks, including designing and coding the user interface (UI), creating the underlying database and server-side logic, and testing and deploying the finished product. Front-end development is concerned with the parts of a website or web application that users interact with directly. This includes the design and layout of the website, as well as the user interface (UI) components such as buttons, forms, and menus. Front-end developers typically work with HTML, CSS, and JavaScript to create the UI and make it interactive. Back-end development, on the other hand, involves creating the server-side logic that powers the website or web application. This includes managing data, handling user authentication, and processing requests from the front-end. Back-end developers typically work with languages such as PHP, Ruby, Python, or Node.js, as well as databases like MySQL or MongoDB. To get started with web development, you will need some basic tools. These include a text editor (such as Sublime Text, Atom, or Visual Studio Code), a web browser (such as Google Chrome or Firefox), and a command line interface (such as Terminal on a Mac or PowerShell on Windows). You may also want to install a local web server, such as XAMPP or WAMP, to run your web applications locally on your computer for testing purposes. That's it for Lesson 1. In the next lesson, we will dive into HTML, the markup language used to create the structure and content of web pages.
