Patience and perseverance key to web development success
Can anyone develop a website? We argue that anyone who can create a well formatted document in a word processor can create a website. True, web development and design is a little more complicated, but the essentials steps are the same. With a little patience and perseverance, web skills can be nurtured and matured.
- Learning
The two basic components any prospective web developer needs to learn are HTML and CSS. These two “languages” form the basic structure of any web page. Of any language within the computer realm, HTML is the easiest to learn. Know the basic structure of a business letter? Then learning the basic structure of an HTML page is within reach. We recommended both HTML Tutorials and CSS Tutorials for anyone to get started. We also recommended more comprehensive web site design tutorials that pull together both those skills to build quality web sites.
- Development and Design
Learning the necessary skills is just the beginning. Put it into practice! We offer recommendations for web hosting which can enable development in a “live” environment. It takes time and much trial and error to pull together a well formed web site. We hope the growing resources on this site will help readers accomplish that task!
- Fine Tuning
Web development and design is an “always learning” kind of experience. This site was redesigned four times before we were satisfied (not quite sure we still are). A fifth time can be counted if one accounts for a small reorganization of content. Please note, we were beginners when we began this site. This site is written for beginners because we understand the frustration in finding quality information and resources. Do not be intimidated by the big dogs. Keep it simple, be patient, learn and practice.
