HTML & CSS

HTML and CSS are the foundational languages of the internet. I picked these up a long time ago, back when IE5.5 was still available for the Mac. This was a time of standardisation, when we were trying to find ways to make our code run in every browser.

Things are a lot simpler now, but paradoxically there is far more to learn. I hope this HTML / CSS course will give you a solid foundation.

• HTML & CSS Course
• HTML * CSS Course Book (the whole course formatted as a single document with internal links)

• MVC JavaScript without a Framework

  Looking at Rails or Angular there’s a tendency to think of MVC as something rather complicated and difficult to achieve, something that really demands a framework.

  In fact, MV* style JavaScript really is trivially easy to write. It’s a pattern I’ll often drop into if I need to make anything beyond the basics, but I don’t want to break out Angular’s big guns.

  In this post, we’ll create a simple MV pattern. We’ll build a Model and a View and wire these together using events.
