HTML, CSS and JavaScript are the three essential technologies for building websites. HTML provides the structure of the page, CSS the style and JavaScript the interactivity.
HTML is the basic language for creating web pages. It provides the structure of the page, with tags for headings, paragraphs, images and so on. CSS is used to style the HTML, adding colours, fonts, borders and other effects. JavaScript is used to add interactivity to the page, such as buttons that change the text or images when clicked.
To create a web page, you need to create a file with the extension .html or .htm. The file can be created in any text editor, such as Notepad on Windows or TextEdit on Mac. The contents of the file should look something like this:
My page content goes here.
The first line is the doctype, which tells the browser which version of HTML the page is written in. The tag tells the browser that the entire page is written in HTML. The
tag contains information about the page, such as the title. The tag contains the main content of the page.To style the page, you can add CSS between the
and tags. For example, this CSS will make the text black and the background white:To add interactivity to the page, you can add JavaScript between the
and tags. For example, this JavaScript will make a button that changes the text when clicked:To learn more about HTML, CSS and JavaScript, visit w3schools.com.
