Free online course HTML

About the free online course

Learn to build solid, well-structured web pages with HTML, the essential language behind every site you visit. In this free online course, you will go from understanding what markup is to confidently writing clean pages that browsers can read and render. You will practice the core habits used in real projects: choosing the right element, writing readable code, and thinking in terms of structure and meaning rather than just visual layout.

You will start with the foundations: how an HTML document is organized, how elements work, and what makes some elements different, such as empty elements that do not require a closing tag. From there, you will create your first page and learn how spacing, line breaks, and comments affect both the browser output and the maintainability of your code. Along the way, quick knowledge checks help you confirm concepts like headings and the proper use of common tags.

As you advance, you will create practical content structures used everywhere on the web. You will work with ordered and unordered lists for organized information, build tables for structured data, and create links that connect users to other pages or to sections within the same page. You will also learn how anchor tags rely on key attributes, a detail that makes navigation work reliably.

Visual content is part of modern web development, so you will add images to your pages, control their sizing, and learn which formats are best for different goals, such as crisp logos versus detailed photographs. You will also strengthen your understanding of nested elements, an everyday concept in HTML that helps you compose complex layouts by placing elements inside others with clear intent.

Finally, you will create interactive experiences through forms. You will build single-line and multi-line text inputs, connect labels properly for accessibility, and use radio buttons, checkboxes, number inputs, drop-down lists, and date fields to capture user data correctly. You will also explore fieldsets and legends for grouping and clarity, and deepen your grasp of attributes—the flexible mechanism that adds behavior and meaning to elements. By the end, you will be able to read and write HTML with confidence and take a strong first step toward web development.
