part 2 : How to become a web developer?

Web hosting is the process of placing any content you write on a server (remote computer) and giving it a worldwide (uniform resource locator) address.

Since many people are confused about the process of web development, it is important for you to understand these basics first.

Whether it is back end or front end, after becoming a developer, you have to write all the codes on your computer yourself. If you want to make your content available worldwide, you need a powerful computer to host your content.

For now, you are familiar with the word hosting, you don't have to know what it is right now.

Get acquainted with the front end

If you want to become a web developer, you must first learn about the front end. The easiest thing you can learn in the process of web development is HTML.

You do not need a high-performance computer, heavy processor consumption, and extra computer skills, heavy software. HTML is a very lightweight makeup language.

Which can easily run in a web browser? CSS helps to organize the content and JavaScript helps to make the content dynamic.

All three of these things are very easy to learn. It does not require a server approach, programming approach, and any kind of support from the web developer.

Familiarize yourself with HTML

HTML stands for HyperText Makeup Language. The newest version of HTML currently in use in the market is HTML Five.

Compared to previous versions, it has improved a lot. HTML files can quickly travel from the server to your computer.

We must first read about HTML. Because no matter how much content you see in the browser, no matter how many websites you visit, all of these things are visible (displayed) using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.

But since not only the contents look good in HTML, CSS also comes in the picture. HTML provides different types of tags for different purposes.

These tags are less than <and greater than> symbols, for example <html>, <head>, <body>. The tag can be divided into two categories by single and pair tags. Cingular tags do not have closing tags.

For example <hr />, <img> etc. The pair tag has a closing tag and we write some content within that tag. <p> This is a paragraph tag. For example <html>, </html>, <head> </head>, <body> </bod>, <table> </table>, <form> </form>, <tr> </tr> , <td> </td> are also tags.

Don't worry if you feel uncomfortable. We will bring you many more articles.

The purpose of our present article is to acquaint you with the various terms of web development. So that the web development process can be easy for you.


Where to write HTML code?

Usually, nowadays every operating system comes with an inbuilt editor. For example, Microsoft Windows has Test Edit on Notepad and Mac.

But other third-party editors are also available. Which are available for free. Third-party text editors are smart and these editors enhance our performance by auto-completing tags.

They also make the building process easier by displaying tags and attributes in different colors. Sublime Text, Notepad Plus Plus, Atom, etc. are some such third-party text editors.

Run HTML on your computer

You only need one browser on your computer. Open any browser and save the file using HTML. You have to watch the content without tags.

The browser reads the tag and displays the content of the tag according to the purpose of the tag. For example, if you use the <h1> </h1> tag, you may see larger fonts.

But if you use <h6> </h6> you will see a small font. You will need to read a variety of tags and use them according to the needs and design of your website.

What is CSS?

CSS is a cascading style sheet. The latest version available in the market is CSS III. CSS embellishes HTML content and provides better options for content managing such as margins, padding, align, size, background, color, etc.

This saves a lot of time in the web development process. To apply CSS to HTML content, you must first look for a specific HTML section. We use selectors to find such special sections. The types of selectors are as follows.

  •  Simple selector (name, id, class)
  •  Combinator selector (based on special reactions between them)
  •  Pseudo class selector
  •  Pseudo Elements Selector
  •  Attribute selector

CSS can be applied to HTML files in three ways. The first is external CSS. The second is internal CSS and the third is inline CSS.

Get acquainted (gain, obtain) with present and future tenses

External CSS is a method of implementing CSS. Where we write a separate CSS file (the extension is CSS) and move it to the HTML file.

It helps us to write HTML and CSS separately. This is helpful when we write CSS on a single page. Inline CSS is to write CSS inside a tag as an attribute.

Familiarize yourself with the CSS box model in CSS and that's the way it works. We can write multiple CSS files on a single HTML page or we can write a single file for multiple HTML files.

Most of the time companies use other types of color agents. Want to use the same color adjustment on all webpages.

In this case, it is better to write in a CSS signal file and it is very easy and fast to implement it in all HTML files. We will talk about the Term Framework, CSS Framework, and JavaScript in the next web developer part  3 article.
