I find a course like that overwhelming. If its for someone who knows nothing but is serious about learning this the course should go one way step by step to create and publish a website with an OS built in text editor.
Local dev is apache and a sites folder. they go and buy a shared hosting package for 5 to 10 dollareuros with a provider that gives them ssh access.
And you don't even mention any of the other ways to do this - they will find out about them in their own good time. You leave javascript out in this beginner course and you show them how to create a static site that loads in 1 second max on mobile pagespeed, gets 0 errors and 0 contrast errors on wavewebaim, an A+ on securityheaders and a proper dmarc rating on dmarcian.com
- and when they are done and see what a good looking blazing fast secure and accessible website they can make themselves while fully understanding how they did this, thats when the course can be called a learning experience.
- skydhash 2y agoMy first venture in programming was typing out HTML in notepad and refreshing Internet explorer. No CSS files, No JS (altough I found a book on Javascript 1.6 later). Just one single file. Later I found about shared hosting and cPanel and this was more than enough to get something out in the real world.
