Welcome to the course Text and Code.

In this series of classes from the Publication Station we 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 we work on creating animated SVG’s exported from Illustrator.
