This is an intensive course covering the planning, design and build of dynamic websites. We will learn all that goes into the process of making a website, from learning and understanding client needs; molding those needs into a comprehensive game plan; creating an attractive and use-centric design; and using current technologies to bring it all together into a fully operational website. Students should have experience with HTML and CSS, a basic understanding of how web hosting and domains work, and a total openness to new ideas.
