You've reached the end of this

module on web development. Over the course of this module, you've

explored the basics of how the web works and familiarize yourself with key
concepts in core internet technologies. Let's recap the key skills
that you gained along the way. You started the module with
an overview of how the web works and explored the basics of web pages,
web servers and web browsers. In terms of web pages,
you should now be able to, differentiate between a website and a web page by
outlining the key elements of each. Outline the purpose of html and CSS and
provide an explanation of how they work. And identify the benefits that
Javascript provides to a web page like interactivity and data processing. You've
also explored the basics of
web servers, and should be able to explain how a data center provides
storage and power for web servers. Differentiate between the key
functions of web server hardware and software and outline how a web server
handles requests through HTTP or hypertext transfer protocol. And you explored the
third key technology
of the web, which is web browsers. Following this exploration, you should now
be able to, explain what a web browser is, describe how a web browser receives
content from a web server and displays it for users and
outline the request response cycle. After your study of how the web works, you
investigated core internet technologies. You should now be able to explain
the concept of IP addresses and how they facilitate the transfer of
data across the internet, demonstrate an understanding of how HTTP functions and
identify common HTTP methods and outline how HTMl, CSS and
Javascript interact with one another. To generate web pages, differentiate
between a web page, website and web app, identify the front end and
back end of a web app and list common web browser developer tools. And finally, you
should be able to
demonstrate an understanding of libraries and frameworks along with
their advantages and disadvantages, identify an application
programming interface or API and explain how its utilized in application
development and explained the purpose and benefits of an IDE or
integrated development environment. Now that you have completed this module,
you should be able to demonstrate your knowledge of the basic
concepts of how the web works. And you've also demonstrated your
understanding of core Internet technologies. You've made a great start
on your learning journey. Excellent work.
