>> --- The usual details follow ---
>> 
>> Learn HTML, CSS and JavaScript - and put them to good use! This weekly
>> lecture series, taught by Jeffrey Carl Faden, is aimed at complete
>> beginners who are interested in making websites, as well as seasoned
>> professionals looking to brush up on the latest and greatest.
>> 
>> Front-end web development is all about making code that runs in the browser
>> (versus code that runs on the server). There isn't a big focus on web design
>> (creating wireframes and mockups), but we do cover best practices for
>> turning these designs into beautiful code.
>> 
>> The class starts on Monday at 8pm, and goes until 10pm! Plan to arrive
>> EARLY, as the class has been filling up very fast. We will have a recap of
>> last week's material starting at 7:30pm. If you're either new, couldn't
>> make last week's class or you simply need a refresher, come early and we'll
>> go through a simple tutorial.
>> 
>> This class does go in a series, but the series can last up to half a year.
>> Don't let it discourage you if you're starting from the middle - attend
>> recaps and labs and you should be able to catch up!
>> 
>> This class and the space in which it's taught are entirely free to attend.
>> Please bring a laptop. Read all of the details here:
