HTML5+CSS3 Web Front-End Development Technology (2nd Edition)
Tags
Summary
Editor's review
From a professional perspective, the book is clearly structured and follows a learning path from fundamentals to advanced topics, with each chapter featuring abundant example code and end-of-chapter exercises, making it well suited to classroom teaching and self-study. The author, Liu Deshan, has many years of university teaching experience, and his writing style is rigorous and precise, presenting complex technical concepts in an easy-to-understand way. The book explains HTML5's new APIs and CSS3 effects such as animations and transitions in particular detail, providing readers with a solid theoretical foundation for building dynamic, interactive web pages.
However, the book focuses more on fundamental knowledge and standard syntax and covers relatively little of the frameworks (such as Vue and React) and engineering tools popular in today's front-end ecosystem. It is therefore better suited as a "first book" on front-end technology, helping readers build a solid core skill set rather than directly tackling enterprise-level project development. Overall, this is a reliable, comprehensive traditional textbook, suitable for readers who need to systematically learn Web standards technologies.
Who it's for
A good fit for
- College students majoring in computer-related fields, as a textbook or reference book for web design or front-end development courses
- Career changers or beginners who want to systematically learn HTML5 and CSS3 standard syntax and core concepts from scratch
- Front-end practitioners with some traditional web authoring experience (such as HTML4) who need to update their knowledge to modern Web standards
- Developers who need a clearly structured, example-rich reference book for daily lookup of tags, attributes, and CSS properties
Not a good fit for
- Impatient learners seeking to quickly get started with modern front-end frameworks such as Vue and React and immediately put them into project development
- Senior developers who have already mastered HTML5/CSS3 and wish to explore front-end engineering, performance optimization, or advanced techniques in specific domains
Reading tips
- It is recommended to study the chapters in order and practice each example code hands-on, which is the most effective way to master front-end technologies
- When learning CSS3 layout (such as Flexbox), practice with online visualization tools to deepen understanding of the layout model
- After finishing the book, try to independently complete a simple responsive personal homepage project modeled on the book's case studies, in order to integrate what has been learned

About the author
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.
Public information about Lin Bin is limited, and his nationality, dates of birth and death, and professional background cannot be confirmed at present. Judging from the three works held in the library, his writing interests span computer technology, medical history, and world history, covering a fairly wide range of subjects. Among them, HTML5+CSS3 Web Front-End Development Technology (2nd Edition) is a practical textbook in programming and design for learners of web development; The Arduous Journey of Founding Medical Education, a Century of Glory in Cultivating Talent: A Historical Picture Album of Modern Chinese Medicine Education in Guangdong traces the development of modern Chinese medicine education in Guangdong in an illustrated, accessible manner, combining historical value with readability; and A Concise World History (New Knowledge Family Civilization Reader) outlines the course of world history in a concise style for general readers. These works correspond respectively to the categories of programming and design, medicine, and world history, reflecting the author's engagement with different fields of knowledge and his orientation toward popular writing.
