Design for screen - Coding Lecture

We had a lecture about the coding as it is worth becoming aware of what coding involves and maybe even to become quite proficient with the process. 

Languages involved: 

HTML - Hyper Text Markup Language                   
CSS - Cascading 
Java - Android language
Javascript - Advanced effects and added interactivity
SQL - Database language
PHP - Server based language
iOS - Apple
Ruby - Twitter

HTML - HyperText Markup Language is the standard markup language for creating web pages and web applications. With Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), and JavaScript, it forms a triad of cornerstone technologies for the World Wide Web. 

XHTML - Extensible Hypertext Markup Language is part of the family of XML markup languages. It mirrors or extends versions of the widely used Hypertext Markup Language (HTML), the language in which Web pages are formulated.

CSS - is the language for describing the presentation of Web pages, including colors, layout, and fonts. It allows one to adapt the presentation to different types of devices, such as large screens, small screens, or printers. CSS is independent of HTML and can be used with any XML-based markup language.

CODE

WYSIWYG - What you see is what you get

Every site needs these tags - 
<html> 
<head>  - not visible in design, tells browser what other languages you are using +     metatags (what search engines use to find a site)
<title> is visible, but not within the design
<body> is visible on the site

You have to close the tabs with the forward slash version after- </head>

Once set up I have saved it as index.html
