Introduction to Web Development Simplified

What is Web Dev ? (you may wonder)

Have you ever wondered how a webpage is built and how it runs?(Well let me answer those questions and simplify it)

What is a Webpage First of ALL

A webpage is a single document on the internet that you can view using a web browser (like Chrome, Safari, or Firefox). It’s what you see when you visit a specific web address (URL).In short, a webpage is just one part of the web that displays information or provides functionality for users. Let’s say you write a page on a book insulting your friend(you have done this you cannot lie),that page is like a single item in that entire book,( and yes you can make a webpage insulting your friends with only HTML which ill talk about in another blog)


What Makes Up a Webpage? (Front-End)

  1. HTML (Structure):

    • Defines the basic structure and content (e.g., text, headings, images).

    • Example: The heading and paragraph you see on a page.

  2. CSS (Design):

    • Adds styling like colors, fonts, and layout to make it look nice.
  3. JavaScript (Interactivity):

    • Adds functionality, like making a button clickable or showing animations.
