Become familiar with the structural layer

We are moving into the web development module

What is the structural layer?

The structure or content layer of a web page is the underlying HTML code of that page. Just as a house's frame creates a strong foundation upon which the rest of the house is built, a solid foundation of HTML creates a platform upon which a website can be created. (ThoughtCo.)

To be prepared for a discussion of the first of several web page layers, read over the following:

1. HTML5 Tutorial
2. HTML Introduction
3. HTML Editors, but use the text editors you already downloaded
4. HTML Basic Examples
5. HTML Elements
6. HTML Attributes
7. HTML Links

① We will consider structure when we use HTML
② We will consider styles when we use CSS
③ We will consider dynamism when we use scripts

You may, of course, read other lessons, if you wish.

You will probably come back to them often, so you might want to bookmark the site.
