About Web Development

GoConqr Original

What you will find

The unit follows the path of a web page, from the browser to the server. The front-end material covers HTML tags, fonts, images, tables and CSS layout. The JavaScript material covers variables, arrays, data types, closures and inheritance. Further along are Node.js, Express, Mongoose, Angular, PHP and web services.

Where to start

Begin with the basics. The quiz HTML Basics asks what HTML and HTTP stand for and which server handles resource requests. The quiz HTML & CSS: Introduction & Chapter 1 goes on to ask how a browser finds a web server, and what an ISP is. The flashcard deck HTML + CSS then drills font-family, font-style, font-weight and font-size, along with web safe and fallback fonts.

  1. Read a mind map such as HTML or CSS to see the shape of the topic.
  2. Take a basic quiz to check what stuck.
  3. Use flashcards to fix the terms you missed.
  4. Move on to JavaScript and server-side topics.

Going further

Once the markup is comfortable, try Prototypes in Javascript. It gives you a Cat constructor and asks what a prototype property returns for each object. The quiz SOAP + WSDL covers web service operations and request-response patterns. The deck Intro to D3.js practises selecting elements and binding data arrays. The Angular mind map links TypeScript, components, modules and bootstrapping in one place.

The mind maps on client-side and server-side processing are useful for seeing where code actually runs.

Exams and levels

Some resources mention GCSE ICT, GCSE Computer Science and National 5 Computing Science, for example the quiz N5 Computing Science (WDD) - HTML + CSS. Others mention CIW and TYPO3 certification. University students and professional candidates will find the most here, with plenty for school students too. Teachers can pick out quizzes and maps to set as ready-made tasks.

Where it sits

This unit belongs to the strand Web, Mobile, Games and Digital Media in Computing and ICT. Choose one topic that suits you, open its quiz, and see how far you get before building your own flashcards.

Frequently asked questions

Which quiz should I try first?

HTML Basics is a gentle start. It asks what HTML and HTTP stand for and which part handles resource requests from many computers. If you want a bit more, HTML & CSS: Introduction & Chapter 1 adds questions about IP addresses, ISPs and how a browser locates a web server.

What do the mind maps cover?

There are over 800 mind maps. Many are on HTML and CSS, while others cover JavaScript, jQuery, MVC, Node.js, Angular and ASP.NET. A set on client-side and server-side processing shows where code runs, and one on website structure helps with planning pages.

Are these resources free to use?

Yes. Every resource listed here is free to open, study and take, with no account needed. They were made by GoConqr users, not by GoConqr itself. A free account also saves your quiz scores and lets you make your own quizzes, mind maps, flashcards and notes.

Which exams do the resources relate to?

The listed resources mention GCSE ICT, GCSE Computer Science and National 5 Computing Science for school students. They also mention CIW, TYPO3 CMS certification and the TYPO3 CMS Certified Integrator exam, which suit professional candidates. Check each resource to see how closely it matches your course.

Is there anything on JavaScript beyond the basics?

Yes. Prototypes in Javascript tests constructors and inherited properties. Other items cover closures, arrow functions, sets in ES6, arrays and data types, and the Advanced Web Scripting flashcards. There are also notes on AJAX basics and regular expressions for when you are ready to go deeper.

What if I cannot find my topic?

Look at related topics first, as the same idea often appears under another name, such as Client-side Processing and Client and Server Side Processing. You can also make your own mind map, flashcards or notes on the missing topic with a free account.
