So your dream is to have your own website. But you don’t have the coding skills to create it.
Now’s the time to turn your dream into a reality! All you need to make a static website is a knowledge of HTML and CSS code, the basic languages of websites. If it’s a dynamic website you want – like a web application – you may also need JavaScript and/or server-side scripting.
