All You Need to Know, and Nothing You Don't, to Start Creating and
Deploying Web Sites---In Full Color
To design, build, and deploy modern websites, you need three core
skills: the ability to write and edit HTML, wield CSS to control page
design, and create efficient web layouts that serve users well. But you
don't need to learn "everything" about HTML, CSS and web layout, just
how to use them efficiently to solve real problems. In Learn Enough
HTML, CSS and Layout to Be Dangerous, expert developer Lee Donahoe
and renowned instructor Michael Hartl teach the specific concepts,
skills, and approaches you need to get the job done.
Even if you've never created a web page, the authors help you quickly
build technical sophistication and master the lore you need to succeed.
Focused exercises help you internalize what matters, without wasting
time on details pros don't care about. Soon, it'll be like you were born
knowing this stuff--and you'll be suddenly, seriously dangerous.
