Introduction

Internet Gardening? Yeah, websites are basically vegetables. Some people grow them on an industrial scale, others in pots in their backyard. That's what we're doing today.

For this first course, our end goal is to build a static website:

  • That looks pretty
  • Allows people to input their favorite song
  • Shows a list of songs people have submitted

Where Do We Start?

Let's get our environment setup. The perk of building a simple website is we don't need that many tools.

First, if you don't have one let's go ahead and set up a GitHub Account. Github is where we'll keep track of our progress and host our first couple websites.

Once we've set that up we'll need to install VSCode (you can get that from kanji). This will be the text editor we use to write all of the files that make up our site.
