Learn about the technologies you need to get
started below
Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) is the primary language standard used to organize and format web pages and other documents on the World Wide Web. HTML identifies which parts of text are body paragraphs, headings, hyperlinks, bulleted/numbered lists, block quotes, italicized, bolded, etc.
Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) handles the look and feel part of a web page. Using CSS, you can control the color of the text, the style of fonts, the spacing between paragraphs, how columns are sized and laid out, what background images or colors are used, layout designs,variations in display for different devices and screen sizes, etc.
JavaScript allows you to implement dynamic features on web pages that cannot be done with only HTML and CSS. Any time you see a click-to-show dropdown menu, extra content added to a page, and dynamically changing element colors on a page, to name a few features, you're seeing the effects of JavaScript.
Bootstrap is a free and open-source CSS framework directed at responsive, mobile-first front-end web development. It contains CSS- and (optionally) JavaScript-based design templates for typography, forms, buttons, navigation, and other interface components.
