Every website I've ever made, every web page I've ever written, I started with HTML. It's the first language I truly learned and mastered, and it's where all the creativity comes from. It is truly special to me.
Back in the Christmas of 2020, my parents bought me the book that changed me forever. The Wizards of the Programming Island first introduced me to web development, and the first thing it taught me was HTML. I followed its examples, tried it on coding playgrounds, looked up different resources, learned more techniques... and just like that, I got completely hooked up with web development. I started going on amazing websites like W3Schools and Sololearn and so many more, eager to learn more HTML, watched hours of YouTube tutorials on HTML projects, and finally, after nearly 3 years of experimenting, failing, and learning, I mastered HTML. I liked it so much I even used it to make websites for my school projects!
After so many years into web development, I'm still relying on the special language a lot. Looking back on this journey, I'm grateful that my parents bought me that book 🔥.
