Look over these readings to prepare yourself for our first web development session.
For the first web development class, read from Learning web design : a beginner's guide to HTML, CSS, Javascript, and web graphics , 4th Edition.
If you have a Windows laptop, it comes with a native text editor named Notepad. Notepad, however, is a tad limited. A better choice is to download Notepad ++. It is both useful and free.
Macs come with a native text editor named TextEdit. It, however, tries to add tags to the tags you will write and that will mess up your web pages. Follow these instructions to change the default preferences so it will work for you as an HTML editor.
However, you might want to try Brackets. It, too, is both useful and free. See which one fits your working style better and stick with the one you select.
