WDS72 - How to Practice HTML and CSS?

Hi everyone, it's been 2 days seen my last post. So sorry, for this gap...but it was really unavoidable. I was also thinking what to do next in our web development journey. So let's discuss what I was planning...

The Plan

In the last 70 days, we have learned complete HTML and lot of CSS with various examples and layouts. We have covered almost all basic CSS needed for web development but yes, a lot is remaining which includes:

  • CSS Grid
  • CSS Flexbox
  • CSS Animations
  • Responsive layouts and much more...
But before going any further, I think we should practice what we have already learned so that we become perfect in what we know. 

How to practice?

According to me(and many others) there is no better way to practice web development than Free Code Camp. If you have never heard about, freeCodeCamp is a nonprofit organization that consists of an interactive learning web platform. It has small quizzes where you have to write a code which will be checked and if it is correct you go to next question.

Why I am telling this now?

Because we have completed the first part of their Front End Development and it's time for you to check how much you really learned in the last 2-3 months...The HTML and CSS part has approximately has 60 challenges and they are really nice for practice. One more reason is that I am going to be busy next week due to my exams so it will be unable to write a blog for next 5-6 days, but don't worry I will be back on next Saturday. Here is homework you will finish till then:

Homework

  1. Sign up for the Free Code Camp
  2. Complete the HTML and CSS part
  3. Sign up on Sololearn
  4. Complete HTML course on it
  5. If time permits, you can get more knowledge about various HTML and CSS concepts here:
    1. HTML Forms
    2. HTML Tables
    3. Multimedia Embedding 
Feel free to ask any doubts.That's all for today. In the next part, we will dive deep into CSS. Till then #keepCoding.

So let's get started... In the very first article on HTML, while learning basic HTML page structure we divided HTML document into two main parts: head and body.

In the last article we learned: 3 Important HTML Rules Nested and empty elements HTML Attributes   Let's start today with some important points: HTML Headings  We have already seen HTML headings represented by tags <h1> to <h6> where <h1> is most important heading while <h6> is least important heading. Now I am mentioning some important points which you should follow when using HTML headings: Search engines use the headings to index the structure and content of your web pages. This is important because you should always follow an order of heading tags. <h1> should be used for main heading, <h2> for less important subheadings and so on. In fact, it is commonly followed a system of using only one <h1> tag in the document to represent heading of your document and nowhere else. Heading tags should only be used for headings and not for making text bigger or bold. Different tags are used for this operations and we will ...
