My First Web Page

First, let's talk about the basics of HTML.

You create a webpage using three basic components: HTML, CSS and lanugagues such as JavaScript, jQuery or PHP. What do they each do? Here are the building blocks:

One of the coolesting things about web pages is the ability to be able to create links between information and to include media elements like images, video and audio. All the while being able to format the content so it looks good and, even more important, is easy to use!

Now, I want me cool graphic here that shows the progression.

I want a photo of Steve Jobs here....how do I do that???

And now I want a button that goes to the MS Coding websites.

Let's talk about all the formatting we can do using CSS. It is really pretty awesome.

You can make headings of all types...see...

this is a big heading

This is kind of a big heading

Now we are getting more medium sized

And even more medium

And smaller
And very smaller

You can also make lists. Either just bullet points. Like this.

Or numbered ones to keep track!

  1. Summer
  2. Fall
  3. Spring
  4. Winter

You can also format text to be bold, capitlize, underlined, super big, super small, and other things.

Finally, tables can come in really useful if you want to organize data in a nice tidy grid. Which can sometimes be awesome. Let's say we want to organize the types of programming languages.

Name Platform Easy to Learn Description
HTML Website Yes Not really a lanuage - more like a template.
JavaScript Website Sort of Used to just be a scripting lanuague but is now a full blown language used to add actions to websites.
PHP Websites Sort of Called the "toothpaste" of programming tools - it is really useful - especially for forms. Can use it anywhere!
Python Backend Yes An easy to learn, yet advanced programming language. Used for the backend.
Swift Apps No Used to create native apps for iOS devices.

Okay, let's wrap it up by adding a footer with a copyright at the bottom. Cool?
