in #weku • 6 years ago (edited)

LESSON 1.

CORE PROGRAMS TO BECOME A FRONT-END WEB DEVELOPER/PROGRAMMER:

  1. HTML

  2. CSS

  3. JAVASCRIPT

HTML

What is HTML?

HTML is a markup language for describing web pages.

HTML stands for Hyper Text Markup Language
A markup language is a set of markup tags
HTML documents are described by HTML tags
Each HTML tag describes different document content

HTML Example

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>contains the title of the page</title>
</head>
<body>

<h1>heading</h1>
<p> paragraph</p>

</body>
</html>
EXPLANATION FOR THE ABOVE EXAMPLE:
The DOCTYPE declaration defines the document type to be HTML
The text between <html> and</html>describes an HTML document
The text between <head> and</head> provides information about the document
The text between<title> and </title> provides a title for the document
The text between <body>and </body> describes the visible page content
The text between<h1>and</h1> describes a heading
The text between <p> and</p> describes a paragraph

HTML Tags

HTML tags are keywords (tag names) surrounded by angle brackets:
<tagname>content</tagname>

HTML tags normally come in pairs like `<p>` and `</p>`
The first tag in a pair is the start tag, the second tag is the end tag
The end tag is written like the start tag, but with a slash before the tag name

Note : The start tag <>is often called the opening tag. The end tag</> is often called the closing tag.

HTML TEXT EDITORS

Write HTML Using Notepad or TextEdit

HTML can be edited by using professional HTML editors like:

Microsoft WebMatrix
Sublime Text

However, for learning HTML I recommend a text editor like Notepad (PC) or TextEdit (Mac).

I believe using a simple text editor is a good way to learn HTML.

NOW LETS LEARN HOW TO CREATE OUR FIRST WEB PAGE USING THE FOLLOWING STEPS.
Step 1: Open Notepad

Click Start . Click All Programs. Click Accessories. Click Notepad.

To open Notepad in Windows 8 or later:

Open the Start Screen. Type Notepad.

Step 2: Type these codes

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>

<h1>My First Heading </h1>

<p>My First Paragraph</p>

</body>
</html>

Step 3: Save the HTML Page on you computer

Select File > Save as in the Notepad menu.

Name the file "index.html" or any other name ending with html or htm.
Note :You can use either .htm or .html as file extension. There is no difference, it is up to you.

Step 4: View HTML Page in Your Browser

Open the saved HTML file in your favorite browser and see what your first web page looks like.
