Practicing HTML

[CreepyPro]

I recently learned HTML but I would like to know the best way to practice it.

Uhm notepad? That's how we did learn HTML back in high school.

Make stuff, that's about it.

If there comes no insparation to you, just try to copy some sites.

Try to see if you can make it the way they have with HTML and CSS.

 

Just make a few samples, then move on to probably something interactive so give the User Experience a nice touch.

Yep, like anything - have a reason and just do it. 

 

Start here:

Also draw a design of a site you would like to make and try and work out how to implement it.

 

use notepad or google web designer https://www.google.co.uk/webdesigner/

 

You can use apache web server or IIS (windows only) to have a local web server for testing. (http://localhost)

 

Or pay for classes and learn from a professional teacher.

 

Don't do inline CSS, get used to having a separate CSS file for styles. don't use dreamweaver as it makes everything in tables and puts garbage code everywhere.

 

Actually NEVER used tables - because it messes up screen readers.

Layers, floats and divs will be better than tables.

 

Good luck.

Thanks

HTML goes with CSS. 

you can use codepen to generate ideas you have for a simple static site. 

there are a lot of examples there too.

just go to codepen.io
