Update on the swim team website. I thought I had everything figured out. However, once I started coding the site, I quickly realized how out of my depth I was. When Etienne told me to simply code the webpage in HTML instead of displaying an image, I had no clue how to do it. Etienne suggested that I learn HTML before trying to make any website, and I think he's right.
I had thought I understood the general structure/theory of HTML code. For the most part, I was right. I knew that everything was enclosed inside tags, and that text went in <p> tags, and there were other tags as well. But I didn't know enough to make an actual website. This week, I've been working on closing that knowledge gap, and going from knowing the theory of HTML to its application. I've been using Codecademy, and blazing through their <a href=www.codecademy.com>HTML Course</a>. So far, I've learned how to set styles, add text, and create lists. I'm looking forwards to learning about tables and CSS. Hopefully, I'll be able to churn out a working site that uses HTML and not an embedded image.
