Web Development Skill Tree

A web development skill tree shows a manageable path from the first building blocks to a published site. Foundations cover HTML structure, CSS selectors and JavaScript basics. The next branch turns those skills into responsive layouts, forms and accessible navigation. Working with data introduces the Fetch API, JSON and error handling without requiring a full backend. The final branch covers Git, static-site deployment and mobile testing, so the learner has a real finish line. This is a starter path rather than a complete career map. Add frameworks, databases or backend topics only after the core path is established. It stays useful for reviews.
