Coding 101

What is Coding?

In the simplest of terms, coding is the language used by computers to understand our commands and, therefore, process our requests using databases. Databases are different categories that work together to create the product page. These databases allow you to make changes without having to edit the coding of the site.

Foundational Languages

HTML5

HTML5 is a markup language used for structuring and presenting content on the World Wide Web. It is the fifth and last major HTML version that is a World Wide Web Consortium recommendation.

JS

JavaScript, often abbreviated JS, is a programming language that is one of the core technologies of the World Wide Web, alongside HTML and CSS.

CSS3

Cascading Style Sheets is a style sheet language used for describing the presentation of a document written in a markup language such as HTML.

HTML provides the basic structure of sites, which is enhanced and modified by other technologies like CSS and JavaScript. CSS is used to control presentation, formatting, and layout. JavaScript is used to control the behavior of different elements.

Summary

Coding can be pretty tricky to learn, but as long as you have a basic understanding of the three foundational languages and what they do you’ll be just fine! Remember to use your resources as everything can be learned through various online sources.
