Specialization - 3 course series

This Specialization is intended for aspiring web developers seeking to build real-world frontend development skills. Through three courses, you will cover HTML, CSS, Sass, JavaScript, TypeScript, APIs, and modern frameworks, which will prepare you to design and build responsive, interactive websites and applications.

Applied Learning Project

Throughout this Specialization, learners will complete a series of hands-on coding projects that mirror real-world development workflows. Starting with clean and semantic HTML and CSS, you’ll move on to writing modular, scalable styles with Sass and adding interactivity using JavaScript and TypeScript. In the final course, you’ll build a dynamic web application using a modern frontend framework, apply Tailwind CSS for streamlined styling, and connect to external APIs to display real-time data. These projects are designed to reinforce your skills and give you portfolio-ready work that demonstrates your ability to develop polished, responsive web interfaces from scratch.
