You’re Getting Powerful Now

With HTML, CSS, and JavaScript, you can fundamentally make any webpage, and you’ll understand how webpages get displayed.

Here are some simple examples that you could be doing next:

• make a landing page for a new product
• make a custom poll
• make a webpage that fetches some sports data and displays some charts

To build a complex site like Facebook, you also need to understand how to host your own server and work with databases, and we get to those topics in later chapters.
