Build a Website

Creating a website used to be time-intensive and required knowledge in programming languages. That is certainly not the case anymore! There are several ways to create your presence on the web that don’t require any technical knowledge. We will discuss some popular options that are available that can get you a simple single page or that allow you to scale up and build a complex, fully-featured website.

Please join us at the next Mini’app’les meeting!
