Progressive enhancement is an approach to web development that builds accessible web pages by starting with basic content and functionality that work for all users and then is enhanced for users with more advanced browsers and devices. The core principles are to provide basic content accessible to all browsers, basic functionality to all browsers, and then enhance layout with CSS and behavior with JavaScript while respecting user preferences. The benefits are greater accessibility, better search engine optimization, and a usable site for more browsers and devices, though it requires upfront planning and can be difficult to execute.
This document discusses various front-end tooling that can help developers work smarter and more efficiently. It recommends embracing tools like terminal shells and customizing browsers with developer tools.

The document summarizes a student's web development project where they built a dynamic website using HTML, CSS, jQuery, PHP, and SQL. It outlines the technologies used including the laptop specifications, development tools, hosting, and databases. It also details the estimated time spent on various aspects of the project, challenges encountered, technologies learned, and future goals to implement original proposed ideas for the site.
This document discusses the differences between CSS and JavaScript and when each is most appropriate to use. It argues that CSS is often underestimated in favor of JavaScript solutions. CSS has advanced significantly with features like calc(), media queries, animations/transitions, flexbox, grid, variables and more. These powerful features allow many tasks to be accomplished with CSS alone without needing JavaScript. The document encourages embracing the "squishiness" of the web and considering CSS more when building interfaces.
The document discusses ways to improve website performance by reducing page load times. It identifies several factors that affect performance like request size, response size, number of components, and bandwidth. It then provides recommendations to shrink the response size through compression and optimization, reduce the number of requests by merging files, and minimize third-party scripts when possible. Specific techniques mentioned include minifying assets, using content delivery networks, browser caching, and tools for testing and monitoring performance.
The document discusses the evolution of web browsers and their impact on the advancement of the World Wide Web. It outlines the development of early browsers, the "Browser Wars" between Internet Explorer and Netscape Navigator that drove innovation, a period of stagnation for Internet Explorer 6, and a second "Browser War" between Internet Explorer, Firefox, Chrome and other browsers. It also provides details on building a dynamic website using HTML, CSS, JavaScript, jQuery, PHP and SQL.
Using a Joostrap template, Philip will be explaining & demoing how you wire frame a website right in your browser and why it will save you load's of time. There are no fancy plugins here! This is wire framing for your client, built directly in your browser & saving you untold hours messing around in other software. It is so hard sometimes, trying to get across to a client with a few drawings how the functionality of something could work. Wire framing directly in the browser gives your client a working wireframe/prototype where they can interact with links, pages & concepts. Not only that, but after client approval, you just have to style your working wireframe/prototype or switch to the template that is using the same module positions... It's a win win situation!
The document discusses Angular, a web application framework that aims to address issues with traditional JavaScript development such as messy code, difficulty testing, and poor maintainability. It notes common problems that arise in complex web apps and introduces Angular as a solution. The core concepts of Angular are described as declarative UI, extensions to HTML through directives, heavy data binding, and imperative app logic written in JavaScript with dependency injection. Demonstrations are provided and achievements of Angular are listed as simple markup without JavaScript, easy to test logic components, and automated testing support. Key takeaways cover data binding, filters, unit testing, mocking HTTP calls, routing, and services.
The document discusses various web developer tools including: - Firebug for inspecting and editing HTML, CSS, debugging JavaScript, and monitoring network activity. - YSlow for optimizing web page performance by reducing HTTP requests, compressing components, optimizing caching, and minimizing payload size. - Page Speed by Google for optimizing caching, minimizing round trips, reducing request overhead and payload size, and optimizing browser rendering. - Web Developer extension for adding developer tools to Firefox and Chrome browsers. It also mentions validators for HTML, CSS, and JavaScript and the importance of performance optimization like minimizing HTTP requests to reduce page load time.
