Welcome to the lesson on Introduction to Front-End Basics!
In this lesson, we will provide you with a brief overview of front-end basics on a theoretical level. We will cover the fundamental concepts and technologies involved in front-end development and how they contribute to building interactive and engaging websites.
Front-end development refers to the process of creating the user interface of a website. It involves using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript to structure, style, and add interactivity to web pages. As a front-end engineer, you will be responsible for translating design mockups into functional web pages.
Let's start by understanding the key components of front-end development:
HTML (Hypertext Markup Language): HTML is the standard markup language used for creating the structure of web pages. It defines the elements and their hierarchical structure on a web page.
CSS (Cascading Style Sheets): CSS is used to style the HTML elements and define their appearance. It allows you to control the layout, colors, fonts, and other visual aspects of a web page.
JavaScript: JavaScript is a powerful scripting language used to add interactivity and dynamic behavior to web pages. It allows you to control the behavior of HTML elements, handle user interactions, and perform actions based on certain events.
Front-end development also involves working with various frameworks, libraries, and tools that help streamline the development process and enhance the functionality of web applications. Some popular front-end frameworks include React, Angular, and Vue.js.
Throughout this course, we will dive deeper into each of these front-end technologies and explore advanced concepts such as responsive web design, version control, and browser developer tools.
By the end of this course, you will have a solid understanding of front-end basics and be ready to tackle more advanced topics in web development.
