Course Overview
Mastering the Web is a one- or two-day course on how web applications work, from the page in your browser to the server and database behind it. It answers a simple question: what actually happens between clicking a link and seeing a working web app?
This programme takes you from the basics of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript on the frontend (day 1), to servers and databases on the backend (day 2). Get a taste of web development, and gain the skills to communicate effectively with tech teams and understand the web's potential.
It suits founders with a web app idea, and anyone who works with developers and wants to follow the conversation. There's more detail on the Mastering the Web course site.
Lesson Outcomes
In this broad web development programme, you will learn to appreciate core technologies that power the internet, and get hands-on building your own versatile websites with core front-end web technologies: HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
Gain exposure too to server-side web development through hands-on projects involving Python and Flask, a flexible web development framework. Through this process, you will gain practical experience and a solid foundation in web development.
By the end of the programme, you will learn:
Understand the fundamentals of front-end web development with the HTML, CSS, and JavaScript languages
Create a basic back-end web application using Flask and Python programming (day 2)
What application programming interfaces (APIs) are, and how they let you access complex capabilities from providers such as Google and OpenAI (day 2)
