Task ②.01 web development

---

Task 02 will see you do some hard coding,
then you will create a web site for this class and, possibly, for your future use.

This task has three components

1. The first component is to demonstrate some hard coding skills with HTML
2. Then, you will add CSS to your hard code
3. Finally, you will create a full web site

Start off by showing a little facility with hard coding by creating a single web page to prepare ourselves for the main task

Task 02.01

Create an initial hard-coded homepage, a page we will use in class to practice other skills. Use a basic text editor and type in the text on the tags page of the HTML session class notes.

Within your file structure on your laptop, create a folder on your computer and name it task02-01, then save the file as index.html in the task02-01 folder you just created so that it will display as the first page in that directory. This may be the basis of your fuller task 02 website, but it does not have to be. You may wish to use this hard-coded page solely for HTML practice in class, but create a totally individualized, fuller, multi-level personal web site according the specs in task 02.03.

Task 02.01 is required just to compel you to try out hard coding.
