ABCs for Web Developers

For the holiday season I thought I'd do something a bit different. Why not make a ABCs website for web developers?

What is this?

In the style of alphabet learning books of childhood, ABCs for Web Developers has a little rhyme and web technology associated with it. Over the next 25 days I'll be adding a new letter to the website.

Disclaimer

This is a bit of fun, not to be taken too seriously. There are lots of great technologies that I could have chosen for each letter but I'm limiting it to just one. Let's see what happens next year, until then I hope you enjoy.

Stay up to date with the rest of the letters, I'll add one daily until the 26th of December.

Watch the videos or visit the link to see the original web version.


A is for Angular

B is for Babel

View the web version of B


C is for CSS

View the web version of C


D is for div

View the web version of D


Check back daily for the next one in the series.

Hi there, we encourage authors to share their entire posts here on DEV, rather than mostly pointing to an external link. Doing so helps ensure that readers don’t have to jump around to too many different pages, and it helps focus the conversation right here in the comments section.

If you choose to do so, you also have the option to add a canonical URL directly to your post.

I’ve included an embedded video to alleviate this and will continue to update the post until all letters have been completed.

Thanks for letting me know, I’ll see how I can make this more suitable.

C is for CSS, our favourite little language of the web.
