HTMLkoding

HTMLkoding is the process of writing HTML to create the structural markup of a web page. It is the foundation of most web content, describing elements such as headings, paragraphs, links, images, and forms. HTML files are plain text that a browser renders as a visual page, while styling and interactivity are provided by CSS and JavaScript respectively.

An HTML document begins with a DOCTYPE declaration and the html, head, and body elements. Inside the body, developers use tags to mark up content, such as h1-h6 for headings, p for paragraphs, a for links, img for images, ul/ol and li for lists, table with tr/th/td. Modern HTML emphasizes semantic elements like header, nav, main, section, article, aside, and footer to convey meaning to users and assistive technologies.

HTML5 introduced many multimedia and interactive features, including the video and audio elements, canvas, forms controls, and better support for structured data with microdata and ARIA roles. Practice separation of concerns: HTML provides content and structure, CSS handles presentation, and JavaScript handles behavior. Accessibility considerations include alt text for images, meaningful link text, and proper heading order.

Good practices include using UTF-8 encoding, a responsive meta viewport, and validating markup with tools such as the W3C validator. Writing clean, well-formed markup improves compatibility across browsers and devices.

For learners, common starting points are tutorials and reference resources from MDN Web Docs and the W3C HTML Living Standard. Development often uses plain text editors or IDEs, with version control and browser developer tools to test and debug HTMLkoding.
