HTML — Structure & Content
Think of every web page you have ever visited in a browser. Underneath the colors, fonts, and animations there is a plain text file made of HTML. HTML is the skeleton — it holds the content and gives it meaning. CSS adds the visual design on top; JavaScript adds interactivity. But everything starts here.
If you have ever built a design in Figma, you already understand structure. Frames, layers, components, and text boxes all have a logical order. HTML works the same way — it is a list of named content blocks, nested inside each other, that the browser reads from top to bottom. There is nothing to compile, nothing to install. Open a text file, save it as .html, and drag it into your browser.
