Yes, To be a web developer these three skills are enough : ✧HTML5 ✧CSS3 ✧JavaScript ➮ Learning these things are sufficient for "front-end web development". ⚠ **(But as a web developer you have to learn “server side scripting” languages, like Php or python.)**

It's enough to make basic and static website but there are many people's how only know about HTML, CSS, and JS. And one more thing that u can't be a good front end developer by learning this 3 stuff only. you better learn more about front end. msg me on instagram for more details. my Instagram I'd is @_omkar_raykar_

Web design IS NOT frontend development and neither backend development. Just a note, PHP is not the only server side language, you can also use javascript or other languages. Take a look into Node.js if you’re interested in javascript.

Ghost Man If you wanna go specifically in designing then it's not enough you could also learn graphic designing tools like figma, inkscape, etc. & optionally some HTML5 SVG & Canvas API

HTML, CSS and JavaScript they are specifically for that. For example: Now I would like to make web pages with Python, but apart from the library you have to know HTML, CSS and JavaScript.

A web DESIGNER needs additional skills in UI/UX, video editing, Photoshop, Illustrator, ... But as a web frontend DEVELOPER you should at least add PHP and SQL and you are ready for a job in frontend web development.

Yes, after learning HTML, CSS and JS, you can be a professional Front-End Developer. But after learning these languages, I recommend you to learn any backend language to write server-side codes to be a Full-Stack web Programmer. Best of luck!

If what you want to be is just a web designer , then those three are enough . but to become a web developer you need more than that. You have to learn server side languages like php

Hmm if you want to achieve more in your coding life you should also consider learning backend. Front-end is enough but when you want more you have to learn more

Since HTML, CSS and JS is enough to create a website, they require a lot of time to develop with best practices and it’s difficult to mantain on large projects. You should expand your knowledge learning about modern tools and frameworks for web development. Typescript makes your code a lot more readable and easy to mantain and catch bugs. You should learn a frontend framework like Vue.js (my favorite) or React.js, and some CSS frameworks like TailwindCSS, Bootstrap, Material… In this roadmap you’ll find a lot of useful information: https://roadmap.sh/frontend

Yes in theory, but learning a framework is what most people are looking for nowadays. Also you have to decide if you want to be a front end or a back end web developer or a full stack and go from there. but I suggest that on top of those three you learn a framework too

I think you should learn them but learn some more languages as a backup like #php #wordpress etc. It can be helpful to you
