Websites & HTML
Making a website from scratch is easier than most people think. Considered nothing more than a fun novelty of technology in the 90s, websites have become a part of our necessary every-day infrastructure in many countries. By learning how to use some simple reference tools, you can have the power of a multimedia sandbox, shareable with billions of people, to use however you can imagine.
You can still find places to host a site for you for free, ad free! Just like the host this website uses - Neocities. Registering your own domain name is also cheaper than ever, some can be purchased for only a few dollars.
