<ABOUT CODERDOJO>
This book is about coding. Maybe the first steps you’ll take towards becoming a seriously good coder. And, if you’re interested in coding, you may have heard of CoderDojo.
CoderDojo is a coding club for young people which lets you hang out with other coders, learn new stuff and generally have fun with computers. It’s free and you work with your friends. If you’re lucky, there’s a Dojo near you. Maybe you’ve been down and done some coding? But maybe there isn’t – or maybe you just want to do even more coding?
If so, don’t worry. You can just get your own official mini-Dojo, a Dojo Nano, up and running. How? It’s easy.
Ingredients for a Dojo Nano:
one or more friends
a computer

WHAT’S A DOJO NANO?
What happens at your Dojo Nano? Basically, whatever you think is cool coding-wise. In this book we’re going to meet the Nanonauts, who have set up their own Dojo Nano where they will be learning to make a website for their band. They’ll be combining HTML, CSS and JavaScript to make their website, and you can learn these skills to make your own website as well!
IDEAS + FRIENDS + CODE = DOJO NANO
As a start, with the help of this book, you’re going to make your Dojo Nano website, and then maybe a couple of sites for your friends. It’s easy, it’s fun, and this book will set you on the way! You can follow along with building the site at http://nano.tips, and find more about CoderDojo at http://coderdojo.com
<INTRODUCING THE NANONAUTS>
Holly, Dervla, Daniel and Sam are in a band called the Nanonauts. Holly plays guitar, Dervla piano, Daniel sings and Sam plays bass. They’ve started to play quite a few concerts and think it would be great if they could build a website to tell the world about their music.
HOLLY
DERVLA
DANIEL
SAM
As soon as the Nanonauts start talking about it they had loads of ideas for their site –
• we could tell people when we were playing our next concert
• we could advertise our CD and T-shirt
• we could have links to our YouTube videos
• we could have tips on buying instruments – and taking care of them
• we could have tips on practising without driving the neighbours crazy
... which they eventually turn into this site map:
HOME
ABOUT US
OUR SONGS
SEE US PLAY
PLAYING A CONCERT
OUR NEW CD
VIDEOS
UPCOMING CONERTS
TOP TIPS
BUY OUR T-SHIRT
In this book, we’ll start to build the site that the Nanonauts sketched in their site map. If you want to, you can follow the examples and build a site about the Nanonauts. But if you have your own band, or want to make the pages about something completely different, that’s fine too! Just get stuck into the code and don’t be afraid to experiment. If something doesn’t work at first, don’t get disheartened. Look at your code carefully and see if you can spot where it’s not working. Programmers call that ‘debugging’.
Read on to find out how to turn Holly’s site map into a real website!
THINGS TO DO NEXT
Why not sketch out a site map of your own for a website that you’d like to make? If you don’t want to make one about a band, here are some ideas:
a site about your pets
a site about your favourite games
a site about your school friends
a site about your hobby
a site about things to do in your town
NINJA TIP
All of the pages you will make in this book are online. You can follow along as the Nanonauts build their website, and copy the code to save time. For more information, go to http://nano.tips/examples
<ABOUT US>
EDITING YOUR FIRST WEB PAGE
So, let’s get going! This is the code for a simple web page:
1. Type this code into a simple plain-text editor such as Notepad (Windows), GEdit (Ubuntu) or in a code editor such as Brackets, Notepad++ or Atom. If you’re not sure how to do this go to http://nano.tips/ texteditors
