We'll download some CSS templates and work with them to better understand how to manage the presentational layer.
Working with a CSS template
We will today use a template to look at the role CSS can play in the look of your website. I will download one myself and use it as an example.
This presentation will walk you through the process of turning a template into your own site.
You may wish to have your own templates ready to ask questions about the components, either on the page or in the linked set of CSS instructions.
Two very useful tools
You will want to bookmark them for later use
- W3Schools HTML tutorial - use the examples to test things
- W3Schools CSS tutorial - use the examples to see how things might look
- W3Schools responsive template test it out tool - learn the parts of a template as you start to work with one
