Next learn how to code a JavaScript game in one minute: kzbin.info/www/bejne/aXzagaqqeZJ8Y7s

[@ayyoubm]

I learnt how to code in HTML and CSS last week, and have been wondering:" okey I can make a simple website now, but how can I put it online so that people can visit it?". the video came just in time. special thanks to you.

[@CrissCHG]

How long did it took you to learn it?

[@CrissCHG]

@@Ayasir-lo3ir from the momento You started learning yo now ? Only 2 days or more like 2/3 months

[@Ayasir-lo3ir]

​@@CrissCHG nope I learned it a long time ago I have learned javascript, react, python,, basics of c++ and java and learned data structures and algrothuims fully now I am 16 years old, I suggest you learn a language then do data structure and the algorithm it can be daunting but it's okay what about you?

[@CrissCHG]

@@FoxInFlame but like to learn Javascript with HTML and css to be competent and get Jobs how much time

[@FoxInFlame]

@@CrissCHG You want jobs in your local area making homepages for bakeries and small businesses? Not many require advanced JavaScript, so if you are focused every day, doable also in 1-2 months. You want jobs at Google and major tech companies? You need to learn a different language, since mastering HTML/CSS/JavaScript is absolutely not enough. Around 5 years of continued experience with various programming languages would be acceptable.

[@coderchic]

This is actually really helpful. My website wasn't directing to my domain name and for months didn't know what it was until today. Thank you!

This is a useful video. I like how it tells you the most basic start to finish on a basic website, but it's enough to branch off from and start creating big things!

[@levi9613]

I didn't know that putting a website online is more difficult than coding😭😆
