About this Course

Introduction to HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript is a hands-on, expert-led course designed for aspiring web developers, full stack developers, software engineers, and professionals who want to build modern, responsive websites with confidence. Whether you are new to front-end development or have some programming experience but need structured guidance, this course provides practical, real-world skills to create, style, and enhance web pages from the ground up. If you understand the basics of how websites work, are comfortable using a text editor, and are eager to write real code, you will gain the knowledge and experience needed to turn web concepts into polished, interactive designs.

With about half the course dedicated to hands-on labs and activities, you will develop essential front-end scripting and design skills, starting with structuring content using HTML5 to ensure clarity and accessibility.
