Admittedly, I was a bit intimidated to begin to learn something I had absolutely no experience in. But I think I grasped it quite quickly.
We began looking at the <head> section of a HTML file. Within this you can include:
<title>
<base>
<link>
<style>
<meta>
<script>
<noscript>
<template>
We began marking up a section of text given to us. I found this slow at the start but it became easier with practice. This gave us a HTML file which was available on the web:
It was quite enlightening to learn about this as I honestly had no clue prior how a website came to be. We learned all the basic functionalities of HTML such as <p>. Learning pieces of code such as <h1> and <h2> made it possible to create some form of visual hierarchy at this early stage. We also learned how to code a basic navigation. Apparently this will look nicer when we add CSS but at the moment it doesn’t look that nice at all.
