I will just be defining a few key terms I will be using throughout this blog and explain here what they mean so I do not have to do it every time I mention the terms.
HTML: Acronym for HyperText Markup Language. It is the language that web browsers read to turn into the websites you see today. Originally released in 1993.
CSS: Acronym for Cascading Style Sheets. It is a type of language which works with the HTML and can control how the document can look, positions of things, font, font size, styles and many more things. This gives a much better and easier way to modify how a website looks. Initially released in 1996.
PHP: Used to be an Acronym for Personal Home Page but now has evolved to stand for Hypertext Preprocessor. This is scripting language which lets you manage things server-side. This essentially means that the PHP code that people use is not available to see from the source of a website as it is read by the server to produce HTML code or some other data which the clients (the people who visit the website) can see.
SQL: This is basically a special language which helps you store, retrieve, delete and modify data in a database. I will not explain this much more as I will not be going in depth into it.
