HTML, CSS, and Javascript for Web Developers

Johns Hopkins University via Coursera

Overview

Do you realize that the only functionality of a web application that the user directly interacts with is through the web page? Implement it poorly and, to the user, the server-side becomes irrelevant! Today’s user expects a lot out of the web page: it has to load fast, expose the desired service, and be comfortable to view on all devices: from a desktop computers to tablets and mobile phones.

In this course, we will learn the basic tools that every web page coder needs to know. We will start from the ground up by learning how to implement modern web pages with HTML and CSS. We will then advance to learning how to code our pages such that its components rearrange and resize themselves automatically based on the size of the user’s screen. You’ll be able to code up a web page that will be just as useful on a mobile phone as on a desktop computer. No “pinch and zoom” required! Last but certainly not least, we will get a thorough introduction to the most ubiquitous, popular, and incredibly powerful language of the web: Javascript. Using Javascript, you will be able to build a fully functional web application that utilizes Ajax to expose server-side functionality and data to the end user.

    So far one of the best courses on the topic of HTML, CSS, and Javascript. Great instructor, very good design and structure. Some concepts (especially on the topic of CSS) were presented in really great detail, even a somewhat experienced web developer might learn something new.
    However, I am not sure why this is labelled as being part of the Ruby specialisation since it has nothing to do with Ruby.

    Certainly, I'd be happy to help you write a review for a course. To provide a more specific review, I'll need some details about the course such as its name, the platform or institution that offers it, and your overall experience with it.

    Well structured course with good examples. The module assignments are also very important. The instructor explains almost everything in detail and I'm really understanding CSS and how to implement in a real world website.

    This class was excellent--where have you been all my life? The instructor was incredibly knowledgeable and articulate. This was the first time I have taken a class in a remote format, and I was delighted with it and look forward to coming back to ONLC for more classes in the future. I loved the fact that even though I was in a class with other people, the actual physical space was private and quiet and very conducive to learning! Thank you.

    The course is just awesome, Highly recommended for anyone who wishes to enter or is currently into Web development. There are many tricks and tips offered by the instructor. The quality of the course is top-notch. Just as the professor says, the students would be able to understand the "why" part of "what" after completing the course.

    This is a well structured course and the instructor is so brilliant. I love watching him explain things with simple examples to comprehend. I think the course is more suitable for intermediate Javascript learners. Nonetheless, beginners can also take it.
