How did you learn HTML?

[Kyng]

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.

Yeah, I had "C++ for Dummies" as well.

I think "The Complete Idiot's Guide to Creating a Web Page" pre-dated the "For Dummies" series, but the premise was certainly similar!

I never see those "The Complete Idiot's Guide" books anymore, but the "For Dummies" books are everywhere. I've not read through any of my coding books extensively enough, but I like the "For Dummies" series and O'Reilly Media when it comes to learning via books.

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.

I originally started coding html when I was 14. I learned how to from w3schools.

Never knew you were so into programming.

I start with the basics and that involves nnderstanding the HTML structure, tags, and attributes and I also use the online tutorials like Codecademy, FreeCodeCamp, and W3Schools.

If I remember correctly, that's his career.

Same here.

I got into html at college. A very daunting experience. I thought I would never understand it. Yet today I can code html css with my eyes closed... I love coding for the experience of always learning something new and the flexibility of control. You almost feel like a superhuman of the digital space haha.

I see schools now implement this from early grades, even javascript.. It is amazing to see the progression of the digital space today.

I learned HTML mainly as a self-taught, but some time later I did a 2-year course in computer science where I learned much more about HTML and also CSS and javascript, so it has been both obtaining an official degree and self-taught.

I would say that the most I learned was in the computer course because the study lasted longer.

Based on my experience, I noticed that the feeling of control and constant learning is indeed very empowering and it makes you feel like a superhuman. Trust me, I know the feeling because I've been there.
