What

Weekly class on HTML/CSS/JS, currently taught by JeffreyATW.

Starting at 7:30pm, we'll cover the (very) basics:

  • Discussing tools of the trade
  • Explaining the separation between structure, presentation, and behavior
  • Writing a basic HTML page
  • Styling the page with basic CSS

Then at 8pm we'll discuss a different topic in-depth every week. Some topic ideas include:

  • CSS positioning (topic for 2011-11-22)
  • Turning a mockup into HTML and CSS (topic for 2011-12-05)
  • File transfer (topic for 2011-12-12)
  • JavaScript and jQuery (topic for 2011-12-19)
  • HTML5 elements
  • CSS3 properties
  • jQuery
  • Accessibility
  • Cross-browser compatibility (and graceful degradation)
  • Possible focus on web frameworks, although that's not particularly "frontend"

When

8:00pm every Monday.

If you're totally new to HTML/CSS/JS or want a recap of the previous class, I'll have a quick rundown starting at 7:30pm.

Where

Noisebridge, 2169 Mission St., San Francisco, 94114 (at 18th St., near 16th St. BART station). Map

We currently meet in the Church classroom, which is in the back of the space.

Read up on getting in to the space. TL;DR: ring the bell!

Who

Everyone! Complete beginners and more experienced developers are welcome (and you could probably teach me a thing or two).

The space and the class are entirely free to attend. You do not have to be a Noisebridge member (I'm not, currently!)

Please consider bringing a[ny kind of] laptop, as the available machines are somewhat limited.

Resources

The short presentation I use.
