Guides

Plain-language guides on the basics behind every project here: how the web works, and how I build the way I do. Someone taught me all of this for free once; this is me passing it along.

Web basics

HTML basics
The tags that give a page its structure: headings, paragraphs, links, images, and lists.
CSS basics
How to control color, spacing, and layout, and how selectors decide what a rule applies to.
Responsive design basics
Media queries and flexible units, so a page works well on any screen size.
JavaScript basics
Variables, functions, and how to make something happen when a visitor clicks a button.
Accessibility basics
Semantic HTML, alt text, focus states, and motion preferences: practical steps, not theory.
Git and GitHub basics
What the two actually are, and the handful of commands you need to get a project online.
