Chapter 2 - HTML and CSS

« Return to the Table of Contents

Now that things are set up, it's time to talk a little bit about HTML and CSS. These subchapters will not go deep into these concepts since this is the webserver class. But a certain amount of HTML and CSS knowledge will help you understand what sort of information you're frequently providing to the client.

For more information, I highly recommend w3schools. They have plenty of resources for learning about HTML and CSS tag/style usage.
