Course Summary
Cascading Style Sheets(CSS) describes and controls how HTML elements/tags are displayed on a webpage. The CSS for Server-Side Developers course teaches developers to utilize the key CSS concepts required to support back-end server-side development.
The course begins with an exploration of CSS basics and selectors like pseudo class and the universal selector. The course then transitions into discussing the box model, floating, and positioning. Finally, it wraps up by covering page layouts, bugs, and working with older browsers. The course will be valuable for server-side developers who need to make sense of CSS and use it in their roles.
- Productivity Objectives:
