Hi Ninjas, I'm Sean from The Net Ninja and this is CSS for Beginners Lesson 1
0:13
So in this video I just want to talk about a couple of things. The first one is what you need to know before you start this course, and secondly just a
0:21
brief overview of everything we're going to be covering in this course
0:25
So first of all, what do you need to know? Well not a lot, just a little bit of HTML
0:32
And this is not exactly necessary, but it's going to benefit you a lot as we go through
0:37
this course. Now I've done a course on HTML basics, I'll pop the link to that in the description below
0:43
so you can click that, and perhaps maybe go through this course before you come back to
0:48
this one. So what are we going to be covering in this course
0:55
Well first of all we're going to take a quick look at what CSS actually is, and the part
0:59
it plays in creating websites. Next we're going to take a look at CSS syntax, and it's pretty simple so you're going to
1:07
grasp that pretty quickly. And then we're going to dive into the different types of selectors we use in CSS
1:13
Now there's tons of selectors, and we don't have time to cover every single one, but we're
1:17
going to take a look at most of them. Next we're going to look at formatting some text, we're going to look at colours and backgrounds
1:24
and different things like that. And then we're going to take a closer look at the box model, which concerns things like
1:30
padding and margin, that kind of thing. Finally, once we've learnt enough, we're going to put it all together and we're going to
1:36
style up a complete HTML webpage. So that's about it for this introduction video, I hope you're ready to take this course, we're
1:45
going to take your skills from zero to ninja in about 35 or so lessons
