Have you ever wondered how websites that you use every day are made or even structured? ranging from the most basic websites to big and complex websites that are beautifully created Every website comprises HTML(Hypertext Markup Language).
This language deals with the structure of a webpage or a whole website. I can assure you that 100% of websites online have HTML in them. In relatable terms, just as a skeleton is the structure of a human body, so is HTML the structure of any website or web app you see online. It is important to get a firm grasp of what HTML entails so as to design and develop well-structured websites and web apps. The structure of the webpage is very vital to how the website looks. Sometimes developers neglect the structure of the web (HTML) due to the fact that they feel it is less important. In a scenario where a builder of a house decides to build a mansion or a bungalow without setting the plan and structure of how it looks, in the long run, there would be major issues. In this wonderful series, we will be touching HTML and all the currently available tags and building using those tags.
The interesting thing about HTML is that it isn't difficult to write in terms of syntax, so it is easy for beginners to grasp their way around understanding the concepts. One of the truths I have learned while building stuff is that the fastest way to learn how to build something is to know how it really works, and nothing beats that fact. In our HTML journey, have an open mind because we will be having fun all throughout this series, and always remember that the best way to build is to learn the concepts first.
