How to build a static website - Part 1 | Introduction

You might recognize this, you would like to build a website, but you simply do not know where to start. In this series I will walk you though the entire process of setting up a website. From the first line of code, to domains, hosting and connecting everything together, we will walk through it all.

The chapters are going to be the following:

  1. Introduction ✨
  2. Basic Development 💻
  3. Your domain 🌐
  4. Hosting 📡
  5. Going Live 🔴

All posts will have the code that you need, explained and written out like for example the HTML below.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
    <head>
        <title>How to build a static website</title>
        <meta charset="utf-8" />
        <meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge" />
        <meta name="HandheldFriendly" content="True" />
        <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0" />
        <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="base.css" />
    </head>
    <body>
        <h1>This is your website</h1>
        <p>When you are writing this is a piece of text.</p>
    </body>
</html>

Or of course the CSS like this piece of code.

*{
    margin: 0;
    padding: 0;
}
body{
    background-color: #363636;
    color: #ffffff;
    font-family: sans-serif;
}

I hope you will have fun reading this course.
