How Web Works

In this module, we’ll deeply dive into how the web works, breaking it down into simple terms. We’ll begin by exploring the basics of the internet and how it interacts with the web. You’ll learn what the internet is, how it connects devices, and how it supports the web’s vast information network. Moving on, we’ll delve into the key technologies that power websites, such as HTML for structuring content, CSS for styling, and JavaScript for interactive features. We’ll then trace the journey of a web page, from the moment you type in a URL to when the page loads on your screen, explaining the roles of servers, browsers, and web protocols in this process. We’ll also clarify how domain names work and why web hosting is crucial for keeping websites accessible to everyone. Lastly, we’ll address important security aspects of the web, including how to protect yourself from online threats and the best practices for maintaining security.
