Let's Break it Down: Coding with the Public Library | Online
About this event
General Assembly and Boston Public Library invite you to our 2020 Let's Break it Down event series to demystify the world of tech. This month we are breaking down the field of Coding.
During this introductory workshop, explore the building blocks of the web — HTML and CSS — and learn how you can apply these programming languages to develop your own simple sites. By writing your own lines of code, you’ll:
- Get a closer look at how the developer community and many different fields benefit from coding knowledge.
- Learn how HTML and CSS function together to form the backbone of the web.
- Cover key coding terms and principles.
- Develop a custom, working web page from scratch.
Chart your own career path. Pick up where this workshop leaves off. Design and build a custom site online in our mentor-guided HTML, CSS, & Web Design Circuit. Incorporate JavaScript and code dynamic sites in our part-time, on-campus Front-End Web Development course. Or, go all-in and become a job-ready developer our 12-week, full-time Web Development Immersive program, available on campus and online.
