Welcome to Intro to Programming, the first class in Code the Dream’s six-part Web Development course. Intro to Programming serves as an introduction to computer programming. You’ll start with Treehouse’s Digital Literacy track, which covers basic computing principles and introduces you to HTML, CSS, JavaScript, & Git. By the time you finish your final project, you’ll have the foundations every programmer needs!

Below is a quick outline containing the class timeline followed by a Course Overview links to each Treehouse library course or CTD supplemental course. Remember to keep pace with the mentor groups, and don’t hesitate to ask lots of questions. This is just the beginning, and it’s ok to get stuck!
