Build Your First Website (And Thwack Zombies with HTML and CSS‪)‬

The most fun you can have building a website from scratch.

The "highly esteemed and well sought after lecturer" (his words), Dr. Alexander Boople, needs a website to display his award winning* essay entitled No, Zombies Are Not Your Friends, and Do Not Believe Them Even If They Say They Are. This book walks you through building that site from scratch including the essay page and a bio for Dr. Boople.

Along the way we'll teach you everything you need to know about the code (HTML & CSS) we'll be using. Plus we throw in lots of silly jokes and zombie references to keep you entertained and engaged. Learning doesn't have to bore you to death (because then you might come back as a zombie and it'd just be messy).

First we'll look at HTML, the structure or skeleton of a webpage and all the different tags you can use to show off your content. Then we'll dive into CSS, the look and feel or flesh and clothes of a webpage, and show you how to make changes to the font size, the colors, and the layout. Plus we provide all the content and images so all you have to do is follow along, build your first website, and then move on to post-apocalyptic domination (or to Expand Your First Website, whichever is your preference).

By the end of the book you'll have a website to hold in your (virtual) hands and show off to your Mom. She'll be very proud of you.

*Dr. Boople has assured us that these "awards" are in fact "very real", that they are "numerous" and "indistinguishable." (We believe he meant "distinguished," but we leave that to the reader to decide.)
