Description:

Why use Wix when you can hand-code your portfolio. Design with code to differentiate yourself in a competitive field. Increase your understanding of interaction design through learning to code for the web. Take your web prototypes through the finish line and make them live. This class prepares you for the role of the Hybrid Designer/Developer. Through the language of internet browsers, markup coding with HTML/CSS, and scripting with JavaScript. We will be using older libraries like jQuery and new tools and features offered through HTML5, JavaScript ES6+, SVGs, and interactions with web APIs.Learn visual design fundamentals that apply to online platforms. Create with visual structure with Markup, style it with CSS, and design-in the latest behaviors, animations, responsive presentations, and data visualization. Browser designs must morph for every device and every use case. Learn what works and what does not when building pages for the web—styling them to match our visual designs with pixel-perfect precision—and finally bringing them to life with animation, actions, and reactions through clever scripting.
