Welcome to the course Text and Code.

In this series of classes from the Publication Station you will use code to load and layout large bodies of text on the web. The visitor of your online publication will be given the option to display the text in several ways. We will also make the publication interactive, allowing the user to find, filter and highlight the text. As a final touch you will create animated SVG’s exported from Illustrator.
