--- title: Day 1: Starting My Web Dev Journey published: true description: Learning HTML from scratch ---
Hi everyone! I'm a tech enthusiast currently mastering web development and game development. I am building my foundation from scratch,learning on my phone with Sololearn and Mimo while writing my code completely on a tablet using an app called Acode . Why I'm Doing This I want to learn how to turn big ideas into reality, one line of code at a time. I'm starting with the absolute basics of the web: HTML. My First HTML Project Today, I built a multi-page setup right on my tablet. Here is the structure of my homepage ( index.html ): <!DOCTYPE html> <html lang= "en" > <head> <title> My First Blog Post </title> </head> <body> <h1> Day 1: Starting My Journey To Become A Web Developer </h1> <p> I officially started learning web development today! </p><h3> What I Learnt </h3><Some of the things I learnt today were: </ p ><ul><li> HTML code controls the structure of a webpage </li><li> HTML tags are used to add elements to a webpage </li><li> Elements like button and paragraph require container tags while elements like images and line break only require empty tags <li> Container tags consist of both opening and closing tags. </li><li> Some HTML tags known as Semantic tags </li></ul><h4> What I Built </h4><p> I started with my first project which is my portfolio website </p><h5> Looking Ahead </h5><p> Next I want to learn more on HTML and dive deeper to get a better understanding of HTML and later learn CSS and JavaScript to style and make my webpage more interactive <p> </body> </html> ``` What's Next? My next immediate goal is to learn more about HTML and to learn CSS so I can start styling these pages and making them look awesome. After that, I'll be diving into JavaScript and starting my first simple game development projects. I'm excited to document my progress here as I grow from a beginner into a software developer. If you have any tips for learning on a mobile device, let me know in the comments!
