VBScript: Build Web Converters & Calculators

Overview

Learners will be able to analyze development environments, construct structured webpages, apply CSS styling, and implement VBScript logic to design and evaluate functional online converters and calculators. This course is designed to provide hands-on experience with building interactive browser-based applications using HTML, CSS, and VBScript. By completing this course, learners will benefit from mastering the essentials of web design and scripting through a guided project approach. They will not only understand how to set up a project in Visual Studio 2022 but also gain the ability to create well-structured HTML pages, style them for usability, and integrate scripting for real-time data processing. What makes this course unique is its practical case-study format, where theory directly translates into a working online converter and calculator. Instead of focusing on abstract concepts, learners see immediate results as they apply code, test functionality, and evaluate outputs. This applied methodology ensures learners leave with both knowledge and a tangible project portfolio piece, equipping them with skills that are both industry-relevant and future-ready.

Syllabus

Building the Foundation
