    Study Notes

    Web Development Fundamentals

    • Web development involves creating websites, accessible via browsers like Chrome or Firefox. Websites are files stored on a server, connected to the internet.
    • The client-server relationship is key. Clients (browsers) request & receive data from servers.
    • Web developer roles include front-end, back-end, and full-stack developers, focusing on different aspects of the client-server interaction.

    Awards

    • Awards for participation in extra-curricular activities include: Badges which are awarded for consecutive participation in extra-curricular activities.
    • A Blue Badge is awarded with 1 year of participation, Silver Badge for 2 years, and Gold Badge after 3 years of consecutive participation.
    • Junior Honours are awarded to Grade 8/9 students who excel in a specific extra-curricular activity.
    • Half and Full Colours are awarded for participation in specific extra-curricular activities; Half Colours require at least 3 years and Full Colours at least 4 years of consecutive participation, excelling in the specific activity, as well.
    • Marist and Trophy awards are awarded for consecutive participation, with the Marist Award given at Matric level of participation and Trophy Awards given annually.

    Front-End Development

    • Front-end focuses on the user interface (what users see).
    • Core technologies include HTML (markup), CSS (styling), and JavaScript (interactivity).
    • HTML structures website content; CSS styles and lays out elements; JavaScript adds dynamic behavior.

    Front-End Tools

    • Code editors (e.g., VS Code) are essential for writing code.
    • Package managers (e.g., NPM, Yarn) manage code libraries.
    • Build tools and version control systems (e.g., Git) manage projects and changes.

    Intermediate Front-End Skills

    • SASS extends CSS for better organization.
    • Responsive design adapts websites for various devices (flexible sizing, media queries).
    • JavaScript frameworks (React, Angular, Vue) streamline development.

    Back-End Development

    • Back-end concerns the server, server-side languages, and databases.
    • Servers can be traditional (e.g., Linux, Windows) or serverless (decentralized).
    • Popular server-side languages include PHP, Python, Ruby, C#, Java, and Node.js (using JavaScript on the server).

    Databases

    • Databases store website information.
    • SQL is a common database language. Data is organized in tables.
    • NoSQL databases (like MongoDB) use JSON format. Databases are crucial for managing user data (e.g., contact forms, logins).
