Description

A polite request

Please watch the presentation video BEFORE joining the course; If you don’t like what you see (or my accent at the time of recording) please DO NOT enroll.
So, don’t be that guy/girl, and join only if you believe this course is right for you.

This course was made in 2015 and, apart from a few tweaks in 2016 it hasn’t seen further updates (that is one of the reasons why it’s now offered for free). So, you won’t find things like CSS Flexbox/Grid here. Though, its content is still super relevant nowadays and important in building a solid foundation in Front-End Development. No matter what latest technology you want to learn, you need the basics first and this is exactly what this course is for!

Front End Development is an area of Web Development that includes all of the skills required to create the visual and interactive part of a Website. It’s a complex mix of skills and technologies and one of the most fast-growing and well-paid IT sectors of the moment.

A Front End Developer is the link between the graphic designer, responsible for creating the visual design of a Web Application and the Backend Developer responsible for creating the computational logic behind the application. The Front End Developer brings the application to life creating rich, compelling experiences and allowing the user to interact with the data behind the application.

This comprehensive course is aimed at students with no previous experience with Web Development or programming at all;
The course was recorded on a Mac OSX machine; You can still benefit from this course if you’re using Windows but you are required to have basic knowledge on how to use the Windows Explorer and create folders and files with it. You can easily avoid using the Windows command prompt (in the very rare videos that use the Terminal) and instead do what the video shows just using your Windows Explorer (it’s mostly creating folders and files).
