Wide-eyed newcomers to the exciting world of web development are taught to specialize in one of three facets of the practice: a design and frontend development language, a backend scripting language and a database technology. Having all three in your arsenal results in elevation to the coveted position of full-stack developer. Whatever your area of specialization is, and especially if you’ve gone full-stack, being able to get a website live and learning to deal with code maintenance is essential.
SitePoint and DreamHost have teamed up to give developers, designers and entrepreneurs the opportunity to make a seamless transition from picking up coding skills to deploying their creations on the Internet. Customers will have access to DreamHost’s hosting packages at the lowest price available and one year of Premium-level access to SitePoint’s dev education library, which itself has a value of $108.
Here’s what SitePoint CEO Simon Julian had to say of the partnership:
“Our new partnership with DreamHost allows us to continue offering our audience of web and IT professionals the best available tools and resources to build innovative and smart digital tools and businesses.”
