Pulling it together

OK, that was a lot of information. Let's recap at a very high level:

1. Web frameworks are powerful programs that run on programming languages which interface with OSes and machine code to interact with the network, binding to ports and able to receive data
2. Clients (most often web browsers) request information from specific websites at ports using the HTTP model, whose requests get routed to web applications
3. Based on the requested information, a web framework will return files as responses including optionally interpolated HTML, and then CSS, JS, images, and whatever else is requested

So where does what you'll be learning at MakerSquare fit in?

HTML - You'll learn how to make your websites have meaningful content. CSS - You'll learn how to make them look awesome. JS - You'll learn how to make them interactable, fun, and interact with the backend. Ruby - You'll learn how to program, deal with logic, solve problems, and integrate various services. Rails - You'll learn how to utilize powerful software to avoid reinventing the wheel and create custom, interesting, and dynamic applications.

Drink a beer, take a break, and get on to the rest of the coding challenge prep.
