Take Your Website to the Next Level: 2 Part Workshop

Session #1: Monday, June 18 @ 6pm - 9:30pm
Session #2: Tuesday, June 26 @ 6pm - 9:30pm

In this workshop, you'll take your HTML & CSS learning to the next level by working with HTML5 features like semantic elements and forms, and you'll learn new CSS3 properties and abilities including transformations, transitions, and animation. Finally, we'll dig into responsive design and browser compatibility. You'll leave with readily-applicable skills and we'll be there to answer any questions you may have along the way!
