Html5 CSS3 and Responsive web development
-
Hi, I've started about 3 weeks back with an online course regarding Web Development with Html5 and CSS3. It's 10 modules, attempting to go all the way from introduction to responsive design, using WordPress as content management system, project planning / design (wireframes and site maps), up to creating and using plugins, using paypal, and marketing on google. Now I feel module one was very scant, most of the module was spent on setting up wordpress on your domain, introducing open source and all about licences, etc. The assignment concentrated on licencing cenarios, i.e. Which licence(s) or ownership rights did George Hotz broke through hacking the iPhone and auctioning it? Give one reason for each software license that you mention. and Did he comply with the Open Source movement's ideas. Module 2 touched on Html5 and CSS3, Media queries etc. Module 3 is about wireframes and site maps, planning your site, etc. I wonder if they try too much in one cource? Isn't it true that Web Development has evolved into more specialised areas, i.e. visual design, Content design, coding, etc. I must admit I'm a bit lost regarding the wireframe and sitemap idea. I'm blind, so visual tools tend not to help me a lot. If I see a site map as a treeview indicating the relations between pages, and a wireframe as a formatted word document with your header/footer areas, an area for content, a table indicating site navigation, and another maybe for menus, am I so far off the mark? :~:confused: I only hope I can find enough from this course to make it worth while, since I'm interested in the coding part, but understand that you need to have an idea regarding the rest. Luckaly it's more for my own curiosity, I develop desktop applications for the day job. By the way, the collection of articles Learn CSS3 and HTML5 on CP is great, in a sence, it's more worth than the course notes we got... cool

The course sounds like an excellent intro, but your impression is correct; it's going to take a lot more study (and practice) to become proficient. Did I mention practice? Take advantage of the wealth of information here at Code Project, and practice. Welcome to the site! :)
