Web Development Classes for Kids & Teens in the UK
Every website your child visits from YouTube to their school website, was built by a web developer.
At Xirons, our online web development course teaches children and teenagers aged 10 to 16 how to build real websites from scratch using HTML, CSS and JavaScript. No experience needed. By the end of our course your child will have designed, coded and published their very own working website, something they can genuinely show the world.
What Is Web Development?
Web development is the skill of building websites and web applications. Every website on the internet is made using three core languages that work together:
- HTML (HyperText Markup Language) — gives a webpage its structure and content. Headings, paragraphs, images and links are all created with HTML
- CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) — makes the website look beautiful. Colours, fonts, layouts and animations are all controlled with CSS
- JavaScript — makes the website interactive. Buttons, forms, menus and dynamic content are all powered by JavaScript
-
HTML, CSS and JavaScript are the building blocks of modern websites. Learning these three languages gives your child the foundation to build virtually anything online.
