HTML5&CSS3 Part I-Eng
Android App Review by AndroidAppsReview.com
Reviewed by Luke Patrick
When it comes to things we know, we only really like to say we’re good at two things: Writing app reviews, and coding for the web. Today, we get to indulge both of our flights of fancy!
Today, we’re taking a look at HTML5&CSS3 Part 1-Eng. The app is designed to show you the ropes, helping you become a proficient web developer using nothing more than your Android device and a little patience.
If you’re a confident, self-styled learner of the modern age, then come on aboard for our full review! You’ll find it encased below. Starting with:
Concept and Functionality
As stated, the idea behind HTML5&CSS3 is really pretty simple, though the information contained therein certainly is not.
The app is designed to walk beginners through the basics of how to code in HTML, as well as how to style the elements created using CSS.
The extra numbers on each of these (HTML5 and CSS3) just indicate that the latest versions of each are being taught.
Without going into too much technical detail, the lessons here guide the user—via text and copious picture examples—into their own knowledge of web development. A lesson is taught, an example is given, and the user will hopefully have absorbed the concepts.
And that’s the real downside here: There’s no real interactivity, at least not on the same level as something like Treehouse. Or, for that matter, simple just cracking open the developer tools on your installation of Google Chrome and having at it.

Still, the information is good, and if you’re a total newbie to the realm, any help at all is better than no help, and you’ll not come away disappointed with the lessons here.
Design and Interface
An area where HTML5&CSS3 loses some major points, sadly, is in its design. The application just doesn’t look that great. We’ve already mentioned it once, but Treehouse is absolutely tearing it up when it comes to code education, and a large part of its success stems from its tight interface.
HTML5&CSS3 is a lot more traditional, and we might say a little drier. In fact, the only reason you’d have it on your phone is for the convenience of mobility. Otherwise, there’s not much integration with the Android device itself, nor really any phone-specific features.
Overall Value
At the end of the day, though, at a dollar in the Google Play Store HTML5&CSS3 is easily worth its price of entry as nothing more than a reference. If you gain nothing else out of it, it’d still be worth the money.
However, we highly doubt you’d come away that unenlightened. HTML5&CSS3 still offers some solid information, and we have no doubt that it could get you started on the path to web excellence.
HTML5&CSS3 requires Android 1.6+ and up. A small expedite fee was paid to speed up the publication of this review.
