About Advanced Styling Using Responsive Design course
In the past, everyone viewed web pages on roughly the same screen size: a desktop computer. But now it’s just as likely that someone will be using a smartphone, tablet, or assistive technology to access the web. So people viewing your site will now expect it to work regardless of the device (smartphone, tablet, laptop, desktop, or screen reader) and to take into account some common personal preferences, such as color schemes. This ability to respond to any platform and user preferences is called Responsive Design. This course will expand on the basics of CSS3 to include topics such as wireframes, fluid design, media queries, and using existing styling paradigms. Upon completion of this course, students will be able to: ** Explain the mobile-first paradigm and the importance of wireframes during the design phase ** Create websites that behave across multiple platforms ** Recognize existing design frameworks such as Bootstrap A basic understanding of HTML and CSS is expected upon entry to this course, so it can be taken as the third or fourth course in the Web Design for Everyone specialization. Additional courses focus on adding interactivity using the JavaScript programming language and completing the core project.
