🍎How to Get Started

Getting started with HTML is a great first step into web development. HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) is the standard markup language for creating web pages. Here's a simple guide to help you get started:

1. Understand the Basics:

HTML Structure: HTML consists of elements, which are defined by tags. The basic structure of an HTML document includes a <!DOCTYPE html> declaration, <html> element, <head> and <body> sections.
```
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <title>Your Title</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    
  </body>
</html>
```

2. Elements and Tags:

Heading: Use <h1> to <h6> for headings.
```
<h1>This is a Heading</h1>
```
Paragraph: Use <p> for paragraphs.
```
<p>This is a paragraph.</p>
```
Lists: Use <ul> for an unordered list and <ol> for an ordered list. Use <li> for list items.
```
<ul>
  <li>Item 1</li>
  <li>Item 2</li>
</ul>
```

3. Links and Images:

Links: Use <a> for links.

<a href="https://www.example.com">Visit Example.com</a>

Images: Use <img> for images.
```
<img src="image.jpg" alt="Description">
```

4. Forms:

Form and Input: Use <form> for forms and <input> for user input.

<form action="/submit" method="post">
  <label for="username">Username:</label>
  <input type="text" id="username" name="username">
  <input type="submit" value="Submit">
</form>

5. Attributes:

Elements can have attributes that provide additional information about them.
```
<a href="https://www.example.com" target="_blank">Visit Example.com</a>
```

6. Validation:

Always validate your HTML code using online validators like the W3C Markup Validation Service.

7. Resources:

Refer to the Mozilla Developer Network (MDN) for detailed HTML documentation.

8. Practice:

The best way to learn is by doing. Create simple HTML pages, experiment with different elements, and gradually move on to more complex structures.

Remember, HTML provides the structure of your web page. You'll often use it in combination with CSS for styling and JavaScript for interactivity to create complete web applications. Good luck!
