  developer should learn first is these three basic
  building blocks i.e.
• HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
• You will be using HTML and CSS in frontend for
  interfaces. Just right click on your web browser
  and then select
• view page source option. You will find the
  structure of your website where a lot of HTML
  tags are used for different
• purposes.
• CSS is also used in the frontend that decides the
  style, design, layout and how HTML elements need
  to be
• displayed on the screen.  If youre gonna
  specialize in JavaScript like MEAN Stack or MERN
  stack then youre
• gonna deep dive into this language because
  this one will be your frontend as well as backend
  language.
