Overview of this book

With knowledge of CSS and HTML, you can build visually appealing, interactive websites without relying on website-building tools that come with lots of pre-packaged restrictions. The HTML and CSS Workshop takes you on a journey to learning how to create beautiful websites using your own content, understanding how they work, and how to manage them long-term. The book begins by introducing you to HTML5 and CSS3, and takes you through the process of website development with easy-to-follow steps. Exploring how the browser renders websites from code to display, you'll advance to adding a cinematic experience to your website by incorporating video and audio elements into your code. You'll also use JavaScript to add interactivity to your site, integrate HTML forms for capturing user data, incorporate animations to create slick transitions, and build stunning themes using advanced CSS. You'll also get to grips with mobile-first development using responsive design and media queries, to ensure your sites perform well on any device. Throughout the book, you'll work on engaging projects, including a video store home page that you will iteratively add functionality to as you learn new skills. By the end of this Workshop, you'll have gained the confidence to creatively tackle your own ambitious web development projects.

Summary

In this chapter, we appended several media elements in an HTML5 document. We studied the applications of the audio element and video element and learned how to add custom controls to those elements, as well as how we can style them.

We also learned how to add a text track to provide accessible content for users who can't hear audio and video for various reasons.

We studied several different image formats available in HTML5, including SVG and the canvas element and img and picture elements. These introduced us to how these different options can help make our web pages more responsive and how we can use these tools to program our own icons, art, and animations.

In the next chapter, we will look at how we can animate the content of a web page using CSS. Combining the techniques for adding rich content that we have learned in this chapter with those you will learn in the next chapter will allow you to enhance and enrich web pages further with greater interactivity...
