Lab 8: Introduction to Web Applications

If you find typos or problems with the lab instructions, please let us know.

This lab is split up into 5 parts, so that you can more easily keep track of where you left off. When you've finished the 5 parts, you've finished lab 8!

Important: In the future, you probably won't be using Repl.it. But since we're coding on Repl.it this summer, you'll need different instructions when coding locally on your own computer (not on Repl.it). Some setup and other instructions have been changed to work for Repl.it.
