The No-Nonsense Guide for Web Developer

As a beginner web developer you may be facing a lot of mind boggling resources for web development sprinkling across the World Wide Web and moving everywhere but going nowhere in terms of objectivity. That is why I have formulated this guide which is a straightforward and easy to follow to get you started and rock as a top web developer.

The key is to equip you with the relevant and focused skills to be able to start developing web apps and give realization to your crazy ideas. So let’s get started.

The Beginner’s Trio:

The first three steps are HTML, Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) and JavaScript as a foundation for every web developer. These are the building blocks as HTML which is a markup language is itself foundation of a web page. Consider it as a structure of the house e.g. front door, walls, windows, roof etc. in the form of its elements like header, body, and paragraph tags to put your text in.
CSS is all about furnishing the structure of web page based on HTML elements via stylizing and formatting. For instance let’s give color to the door of your house to brown with a height of 250cm and width of 100cm and position it in the middle of the house. The same applies for HTML elements e.g. give paragraph content the font of Calibri, make its size to 14pt and position the paragraph in the middle of division via stylizing e.g. CSS.

As we are done up with structure and presentation let’s give the action e.g. add a handle to door so that when it’s moved the clang will notify resident that someone is knocking at the door. This is where JavaScript comes into place to add interactivity to your website e.g. changing the color of menu on mouse hover etc. OR greet a user with welcome message if a button is clicked on the website.

The Never Ending Journey:

As web is evolving day by day and so as a top web developer you also have to advance by keeping yourself updated with latest tools and technologies. After mastering the beginners stuff e.g. Html, CSS and JavaScript you should also master related web developer frameworks. The first to deal in this spectrum are BootStrap and AngularJS.

Remember web development is never ending journey but for those who at least master the initial Html, CSS and JavaScript if they want to succeed, earn and dominate in the world of web application development for long.
