What do other students think about Web Development?
In Web Development, we learnt about a lot of different web-based concepts, from how to build simple web pages to how to make sure images are formatted correctly for use in a web browser. I most enjoyed the unit on social media and how to use this to direct traffic to a web page – there were things you can do with Instagram that I never knew were possible.
