HTML Tutorials
Learn how to build webpages with HTML through clear explanations, practical examples, reference guides, and an interactive HTML editor.
Learn HTML
HTML, or HyperText Markup Language, is the standard markup language used to structure content on the web. It defines the headings, paragraphs, links, images, forms, tables, navigation, and other content that make up a webpage.
This tutorial is designed to take you from the basics of creating your first HTML document through the elements, attributes, forms, media, semantic markup, accessibility, and other features used to create modern webpages.
What You’ll Learn
The HTML Tutorial is organized so you can start with the fundamentals and gradually build your knowledge as you move through each topic.
- How HTML documents are structured.
- How HTML elements and attributes work.
- How to create headings, paragraphs, links, lists, and images.
- How to build tables and forms.
- How to add audio, video, and other media.
- How to use semantic HTML to organize webpage content.
- How to write accessible and meaningful HTML.
- How basic CSS can be used to style HTML content.
- How to test and experiment with your code using the HTML Editor.
How to Use the HTML Tutorials
If you are new to HTML, begin with the first tutorial and work through the lessons in order. Each topic builds on concepts introduced earlier, making it easier to understand how different parts of HTML work together.
Each tutorial includes explanations and code examples that demonstrate the topic being discussed. Many lessons also include examples that can be opened in the HTML Editor so you can change the code and immediatelysee the results.
If you already know HTML, you can use the tutorial navigation and reference pages to jump directly to the topics you need.
Practice with the HTML Editor
Learning HTML is easier when you can experiment with the code yourself. Throughout the tutorials, interactive examples allow you to edit the code and see the results directly on the page. Selected examples also include a Play in Editor button that opens the same example in a full browser window, giving you more space to view, edit, and experiment with the code.
Once an example is open, try changing the HTML or CSS and watch how those changes affect the webpage. You can modify text, add elements, remove code, change attributes, or experiment with different CSS properties without affecting the original tutorial example.
Try Making Changes
Instead of only copying an example, experiment with it. Change a heading, add another paragraph, replace an image, change a color, or move elements around. Seeing what happens when you change the code is one of the best ways to understand how HTML works.
Open HTML EditorThe Best Way to Learn HTML & CSS
The best way to learn HTML is to combine reading with hands-on practice. Learn one concept at a time, look at how it works in an example, and then modify the code yourself.
- Learn the structure. Start by understanding HTML documents, elements, tags, and attributes.
- Study one topic at a time. Avoid trying to memorize every HTML element at once.
- Type the examples yourself. Writing the markup helps reinforce what each element does.
- Experiment in the HTML Editor. Change the examples and observe the results.
- Build small webpages. Combine headings, paragraphs, links, images, lists, and other elements.
- Learn basic CSS alongside HTML. Use CSS when styling helps explain how HTML content is displayed.
- Use the reference pages. You do not need to memorize every element or attribute - learn how to find the information when you need it.
HTML References
Use the HTML reference guides when you need quick information about elements, attributes, browser support, character encoding, accessibility, and other common HTML topics.
Start Learning HTML
If you are new to HTML, start at the beginning and work through the tutorials in order. You will begin with the basic structure of an HTML document and gradually move into the elements and features used to create complete webpages.
