How did you learn HTML?

HTML was something I learned very early on in my creating websites. I always remember I started out using Geocities to create my first websites and I used a lot of HTML when doing that and learned what I know today through trial and error.

I know there is still so much more I could learn regarding HTML, but what I know so far helps me out a great deal.

How did you learn HTML?
 
I was creating basic announcement boxes and tables on InvisionFree and I started becoming acquainted with HTML the more I used it on my message board and in assisting people.
 
I started out with resources such as MDN and W3Schools.

And just as mentioned, I also learned a lot by trying things out through trial and error.
 
By working through "The Complete Idiot's Guide to Creating a Web Page", back in 2004.

It was pretty outdated even then, though... when I went online, people told me my HTML was obsolete!
 
I am watching a lot of videos online and I gave some materials that I read as well. I am also on coding and programming platforms where I learn from professionals.
 
Watching videos, reading materials, and learning from professionals on coding platforms are very cool ways to gain all the relevant knowledge.
 
A friend of mine in school gave me some well explained video clips that touched everything about HTML. That was when I newly developed interest in coding. Of course, I also made use of YouTube and helpful research materials.

I've read bits and pieces of a lot of the "For Dummies" series myself. I have a few of the eBooks on my iPhone.
 
I used online tutorials to learn HTML and I also do a lot of experimentation too. I'll recommend Codecademy's HTML course.
 
It was more than 15 years ago. I am unsure how it all started but I know I had passion for making stuff on PC work and perhaps it started like that.
