Coding Weekend: Intro to HTML, CSS and Javascript

Join us for a fast-paced weekend of HTML, CSS, and Javascript.

This 12-hour intensive combination of lecture, hands-on exercises, and workshop will take place over two days, during which you will learn the basics of hand-coding the front end of a web site from scratch.

At the end of the class, you will have built a small site with elegant but simple interactivity. This is a fundamentals course with no prior coding knowledge required, but we do ask that you be a fluent user of computers and the web, due to the class pace.

Each day will run from 10:30am - 5pm with a 30m break for lunch (and other shorter breaks throughout the day).

You must have a laptop computer (not a tablet) with wireless internet capability and the following software installed: SublimeText 3 (or another text editor, if you have a strong preference), Google Chrome.
