    Web Developers

    • Web developers build and maintain content for websites.
    • Front-end developers work with "client-side" languages that render in the browser, primarily HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
    • Back-end developers work on server-side logic, focusing on databases, scripting, and the architecture of websites.
    • Full-stack developers work with both front-end and back-end technologies, but are rare.

    HTML: Hypertext Markup Language

    • HTML defines the structure of a web page, using tags to describe elements like headlines, paragraphs, links, images, and videos.
    • HTML is a markup language, not a programming language.
    • "HyperText" refers to the ability to link documents together, allowing non-linear browsing.

    CSS: Cascading Style Sheets

    • CSS defines the visual presentation of web pages, controlling elements like colors, sizes, fonts, layout, and animations.
    • CSS rules are applied to the Document Object Model (DOM), which translates HTML into visual representation.
    • The "Cascading" aspect of CSS allows styles to be applied in a hierarchical order, with more specific styles taking precedence.
    • CSS is a living language, with continuous updates and new features introduced in subsequent versions.

    • JavaScript is a programming language used for managing interactions within a web browser.
    • JavaScript interacts with the DOM, handling events, loading media, and modifying page elements.
    • JavaScript is used by both front-end and back-end developers, and is a vital part of the web development workflow.
    • JavaScript is a living language with constant updates.
    • There are supersets of JavaScript like Typescript and Go that can be used for web development.
    • JavaScript has also been used for server-side development with frameworks like Node.js.
