Principles of Web Design (Front-End) with HTML/CSS

Course Description

Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) and Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) are cornerstone of every website.

Whenever you open a web browsers like Mozilla-Firefox, Google-Chrome, Apple-Safari etc; they are primarily interpreting the HTML and CSS codes to display information from the website.
