5 Step coding challenge
What you’ll learn during this challenge
Our free coding bootcamp starts with HTML basics, teaching you to create, organise, and structure web pages using a few key elements.
This module covers CSS basics for styling web pages, including design and layout. Step 2 is more challenging but will prepare you for the rest of the week.
On Step 3, we cover HTML5 for structuring web content and the Semantic Web, which tags pages for direct computer readability.
This module covers Responsive Design, which ensures web pages look good on all devices by adjusting to different screen sizes.
Our final coding challenge module will cover JavaScript basics. JavaScript is the most popular programming language. It focuses on a web page’s behaviour and interactivity.
Upon completing the bootcamp, you’ll receive a certificate and have learned HTML, CSS, and JavaScript basics. You’ll also determine if a career in software development is right for you.
