Basics of HTML

🌱 Blog 1: Mastering the Basics of HTML – My Journey with @devsync

πŸ“ Introduction to HTML

HTML stands for HyperText Markup Language, and it's the building block of all websites. Before you can style a site with CSS or add interactivity with JavaScript, you need to understand how to structure content with HTML.

When I began learning web development at @devsync, I had no idea where to start. Thanks to the structured training, mentorship, and live coding sessions at devsync.in, I quickly understood the core concepts and began building real websites.


πŸ’‘ What is HTML?

HTML is not a programming language, it's a markup language. It uses tags to define different elements of a webpage.

Some of the first tags I learned during my @devsync training were:

– Root of the document

– Contains metadata – Title of the page – Contains the visible content

to

– Headings (H1 is the largest)

– Paragraph text

– Anchor tag for links

– For embedding images

    ,
      ,
    1. – Lists

      Every HTML element can have attributes like href, src, alt, title, and style that help control its behavior and appearance.


      πŸš€ Key Lessons I Learned at @devsync

      Here are some concepts that emphasized during the early HTML modules:

      πŸ”Ή Semantic HTML

      Using meaningful tags like , , , , and instead of generic helps improve SEO and accessibility.

      πŸ”Ή HTML Forms

      @devsync helped me understand how to build input forms using:

      Name:

      Submit

      πŸ”Ή Nesting and Hierarchy

      Properly nesting elements inside each other is critical. Lists inside

        , images inside containers, headings above paragraphs – all matter.

        πŸ—οΈ Projects I Built with HTML at @devsync

        Learning HTML hands-on helped me create mini-projects like:

        βœ… A personal bio page

        βœ… A clean resume layout using semantic tags

        βœ… A photo gallery with image captions

        βœ… A portfolio page linking to my social media

        These projects were not just theory-based; I built them under expert guidance from mentors at @devsync.


        ✨ Why HTML with @devsync Was a Game-Changer

        🎯 Focused training from scratch

        🧩 Real-world projects from day one

        πŸ§‘β€πŸ« Personal mentorship and doubt-solving

        πŸ’‘ Concept reinforcement with daily challenges

        @devsync didn’t just teach me HTMLβ€”they helped me think like a web developer.


        If you’re someone curious about building websites, start with HTML. And if you want the best guidance, I highly recommend @devsync at devsync.in.

       Thank you......!
