HTML5+CSS3 Web Front-End Development Technology
Tags
Summary
The book is divided into three main parts. Part 1 covers HTML5 and its applications (Chapters 1–12), introducing HTML and HTML5, including basic HTML elements, the new elements of HTML5, and new APIs such as canvas, SVG, Web Workers, and Web Storage. Part 2 covers CSS3 and its applications (Chapters 13–15), introducing CSS and CSS3, including basic selectors, compound selectors, and using CSS to style elements, as well as the CSS3 box model, CSS3 layout, and image borders. Part 3 consists of Chapter 16, an integrated case study that walks through a sample website. The book offers comprehensive coverage and abundant examples in an easy-to-learn, easy-to-use style, weaving knowledge points into more than 200 cases, with all code and asset files provided to help readers learn and master front-end website development technologies.
This book is suitable as a textbook for website design courses in universities and vocational colleges, and as a reference for readers in information technology-related majors or for practitioners engaged in front-end website development.
Editor's review
From a professional standpoint, the book's highlight is its in-depth treatment of new CSS3 features—Flexbox layout, grid systems, animations, and other skills essential to modern front-end development—topics that other textbooks of this kind often cover only briefly. The book also clearly explains core HTML5 content such as semantic tags, multimedia support, and Canvas drawing. It should be noted that, given the rapid iteration of front-end technologies, the book touches only lightly on integrating cutting-edge frameworks such as Vue and React, making it better suited as a tool for solidifying fundamentals.
For self-learners, the chapter design is friendly, with a summary and exercises at the end of each chapter to aid knowledge consolidation. Readers should note, however, that some sample code requires a specific development environment to run, and basic computer literacy is recommended. Overall, this is a solid introductory front-end textbook, suitable for readers who want to systematically master the core technologies of HTML5+CSS3 and build a firm foundation for subsequently learning JavaScript and front-end frameworks.
Who it's for
A good fit for
- Students majoring in computer-related fields who want to systematically learn front-end development fundamentals
- Self-learners transitioning into web development who need a clearly structured introductory tutorial
- Technical professionals with some front-end experience who want to systematically fill gaps in their HTML5+CSS3 knowledge
- Hobbyists interested in web page creation who want to master modern web development technologies from scratch
Not a good fit for
- Developers seeking in-depth integration with the latest front-end frameworks (such as React or Vue 3)
- Practitioners who only need a quick API reference and do not intend to study the theory systematically
Reading tips
- Read the chapters in order and focus on hands-on practice with each chapter's code examples
- Use an online development environment (such as CodePen) to debug the book's CSS3 effects in real time
- When reading Chapters 7–9, consult the official W3C documentation alongside the book for specification details

About the author
Geek Academy is a collective byline commonly seen in Chinese computer technology books. Publicly available information about it is limited, and its exact institutional nature and staffing cannot be confirmed. Judging from the four works held in the collection, its writing focuses on general computing and programming design, covering topics such as front-end development, Python fundamentals, WeChat public platform development, and Java Web development based on Struts2, Hibernate, and Spring. Most of these titles correspond directly to specific technology stacks or development frameworks, showing a style centered on introductory teaching and hands-on examples for readers who want to learn programming and Web development systematically. Overall, the byline reads more like a writing team focused on practical technology tutorials than an author known for personal works, and its books offer some reference value for readers of introductory technical material.
Liu Deshan is an author writing in computer-related fields, though publicly available information about him is limited, and details of his life and background cannot be verified. Judging from the four works held in the collection, his writing focuses on two areas: web front-end development and programming. These include HTML5+CSS3 Web Front-End Development Technology and its second edition, as well as Python 3 Programming. He has also addressed software design methods in Java Design Patterns and Application Cases (2nd Edition). Categorized under computer basics, programming design, and examinations, these works cover both practical web page construction and scripting languages, and the application of object-oriented patterns, reflecting an approach that combines foundational introductions with engineering practice. They are suitable as course textbooks or self-study references. Given the lack of biographical material, his writing style and actual influence are difficult to assess in detail.
Zhang Zeng'an is a Chinese author of computer books, though limited public information is available about him. What can be confirmed is that he has written two works: HTML5+CSS3 Web Front-End Development Technology and its second edition. Both books center on HTML5 and CSS3, the two core technologies of web front-end development, and are aimed at learners in programming design and general computing. Their content focuses on the fundamentals and practical application of front-end development. Judging from the subject matter, Zhang's writing concentrates on introducing and advancing specific technologies, making his books typical technical tutorials suitable for readers who wish to systematically learn web structure and styling. The appearance of a second edition suggests that the first edition found a readership, prompting the author to update and refine the content. Overall, Zhang Zeng'an's main writing focus is web front-end development technology, and his works offer some reference value for basic computer teaching and self-study. However, owing to limited public information, further details about his personal background and academic experience cannot be provided.
Sun Meiqiao: publicly available information is limited. At present, the only known work by this author is HTML5+CSS3 Web Front-End Development Technology, catalogued under general computer science. Judging from the title, the book focuses on front-end web development and is likely centered on the two foundational technologies of HTML5 and CSS3, aimed at readers who wish to systematically learn web page structuring and style design. As an author of technical books, Sun Meiqiao appears to take a practical, introductory approach, emphasizing the combination of basic front-end knowledge with hands-on practice, making the work suitable for computer science students and self-learners. Because only one work is held and no biographical details such as nationality or educational background are available, no further account of the author's career or full body of work can be given.
