Are you interested in building websites or starting a career in web development? It all begins with HTML – HyperText Markup Language, the core building block of every website on the internet. HTML is like the skeleton of a webpage. It defines how content is structured, how text appears, and how images, links, and forms are placed — making it one of the most essential skills for anyone entering the tech field.
For blind and visually impaired learners, understanding HTML is even more powerful. It allows you to create accessible websites, understand how screen readers interact with webpages, and build inclusive digital spaces for everyone. And the best part? You don’t need any prior coding experience to start!
