Build Your First Website

During this workshop, participants will learn the structure and syntax of basic HTML and CSS.

HTML is the skeleton of every website on the internet and nearly all websites use CSS for styling.

Learning HTML and CSS is the first step toward building a personal website, becoming more technically fluent, or beginning a career in web development or design!

Participants will receive a skeleton of a portfolio website and will update the HTML to include information about themselves and edit the CSS to style and position elements on their page!

Then, they’ll deploy their new website to the internet.

While learning to edit HTML elements and CSS properties is an important first step toward making a website, there are more steps to getting a website publicly available on the internet.

In this workshop, participants will use a simple deployment tool to get their website live before they leave!
