Course Description

This course was completely redesigned in November of 2019 to match the demands and trends of the industry.
You already understand the basics of HTML and CSS, but you don't necessarily feel qualified for the web developer jobs you want. In this course we'll bridge that gap by building a mobile-first responsive website, together, step-by-step. Along the way we'll learn the modern skill-set that companies are looking for in developers.
I know what companies are looking for because as a senior developer I've been on the hiring side of job interviews. Every time we passed on a candidate I'd think to myself "It would be nice if we could point them towards a course that taught the exact skill set we're looking for."
I couldn't find a course like that - so I built this one.
By the end of this course you'll be able to build sites using the modern skills, tools, and best-practices that companies need in developers.
Take your developer career to the next level by:
  • Learning Git, GitHub, and command-line basics to collaborate with other developers and deploy your sites live up onto the web.
  • Leveraging Node.js tools like NPM and webpack to save time by automating tasks.
  • Enhancing your CSS knowledge with techniques (BEM & PostCSS) to keep your styles super-organized and manageable even on larger sites.
  • Speeding up your sites with the mobile-first performance philosophy.
  • Understanding JavaScript basics like Object-oriented Programming, and how to write well-structured code using the ES6 module pattern (Babel & webpack).
  • Using the Netlify service to not only host your website but also learn the very basics of cloud (or AWS Lambda) functions.
  • Discovering tips to get more job interviews, do well in interviews, and continually progress in your career (avoid burnout & stagnation).

This course may be brand new, but this isn't my first time teaching. I've led trainings for Fortune 500 companies, and I've already helped over 7,000 people on Udemy and received the following feedback:

"Brad definitely has some of the best techniques to embed the lesson into your mind hands down these are the best tutorials I have had the opportunity to view."

"Presentation is concise without being tedious you honestly feel that you have a thorough understanding of the subject."

"[Brad] explained the process. Not memorize this or that, he explained the process. If you're looking to take a course to understand the foundations of creating websites, look no further."

I've been teaching for the better part of a decade and I consider this course my magnum opus. This is the course I wish I could have taken several years ago.
Become highly valuable and relevant to the companies that are hiring web developers; in one convenient place alongside one instructor. If you're ready to begin your transformation - I'll see you on the inside!Who this course is for:
  • You'll benefit from this course if you're looking to bridge the gap between what you currently know (HTML & CSS) and what hiring companies want you to know.

By Emil

Very good instructor, learned alot. But it's also outdated, which in turn caused me alot of problems and confusion.

By David dgl

Brad used to be one of my best instructor ever and he is. The way he explains the things is just mind-blowing and never let you stop watching the next video. I strongly recommend this course for anyone who would like to know the good practises in maintaining your code neat and clean and also minimal. Hats off to Brad. Thanks Brad for such a wonderful course.

By Frederick Tubiermont

Great course. I will need to revisit more deeply most of the skills and concepts I learned to be able to use them on my own without direct guidance but it was an exciting hands-on introduction.

By Dawid Dudek

That was the best tutorial I've ever seen!!!

By John Denver

Very good. I wish I would have taken this sooner. Learning Git is literally the 2nd most important thing when learning web development or any other kind of programming, because a project without version control is a disaster waiting to happen. I took a "Complete Web Developer Course" before this course that didn't include Git or version control. About 80% of that course I literally never use when working as an engineer, and I use 90% of what's in this course on a weekly basis.

There are a lot of courses on Udemy that for some reason get 4-5 stars that deserve 2-3. I'm happy to say that this course deserves a 4-5 star rating.

By Elisaveta Hristova

I love it.

The teacher explains so well. He goes deep into the reasons why and how the things work. I hope he will release new courses soon.

He was the first person who drew me to Udemy.

The Best web development cours i have so far!great instructor.

By R R

I took this course after finishing a different program on web development that went through front end and back end stuff but not version control or anything about workflow, so I was essentially "cowboy coding" the whole time. Git was a skill I knew I needed and didn't have any experience with. Although some of this information is a little old (the instructor does mention that tech moves fast), if you're resourceful, you can find workarounds and substitutes for anything mentioned in this course. I got good at reading docs while working through everything lol. I learned a lot, and I have a lot further to go. I'm going into the 'find work' phase now, and I hope it works out well. The final lessons are an excellent way to end the course. I would definitely recommend if this course if you have a little bit of past exp with html/css/js.

By Matthias Schmidt

Very well guided training to build a site using a professional workflow. Well explained and detailed.

By Kevin Michel

Great content and teaching style overall, but several important sections were a bit outdated (namely the GULP and Webpack sections.)

By Steven Rojas Ramírez

Great way to teach about web developing using modern tools. This is absolutely a great course!
