+
+ All modern websites and web applications are built using three
+ fundamental
+ technologies: HTML, CSS and JavaScript. These are the languages of the
+ web.
+
+
+ In this post, let's focus on HTML. We will learn what HTML is all about,
+ and why you too should learn it.
+
+
+ What is HTML?
+
+
+ HTML stands for HyperText
+ Markup Language. It's a markup
+ language that web developers use to structure and describe the content
+ of a webpage (not a programming language).
+
+
+
+ HTML consists of elements that describe different types of content:
+ paragraphs, links, headings, images, video, etc. Web browsers understand
+ HTML and render HTML code as websites.
+
+ In HTML, each element is made up of 3 parts:
+
+ - The opening tag
+ - The closing tag
+ - The actual element
+
+
+
+ You can learn more at
+ MDN Web Docs.
+
+
+ Why should you learn HTML?
+
+
+ There are countless reasons for learning the fundamental language of the
+ web. Here are 5 of them:
+
+
+ - To be able to use the fundamental web dev language
+ -
+ To hand-craft beautiful websites instead of relying on tools like
+ Worpress or Wix
+
+ - To build web applications
+ - To impress friends
+ - To have fun 😃
+
+ Hopefully you learned something new here. See you next time!
