Six Important HTML Tags

<header>: another grouping tag similar to the <div>, covers the top of the webpage. Without css, it will not do anything on its own

<section>: another grouping tag similar to the <div>, covers the middle and main-content of the webpage. Without css, it will not do anything on its own

<footer>: another grouping tag similar to the <div>, covers the bottom footer of the webpage. Without css, it will not do anything on its own

<code>: a special tag used to type code, gives it a special font but nothing else. can be restyled with css

<button>: only useful when we add javascript to this tag, otherwise its useless. creates a button on the webpage which does nothing without javascript. can be styled with css

<marquee>: creates an automatic horizontal scrollbar, can be restyled with css. do keep in mind that many browsers or devices don’t recognize this tag in the new html, so use at your own risk

Coding Challenges

Here are some ways you can practice the skills you learned :)

Begin creating a personal resume webpage. A personal resume webpage is where you showcase all about yourself, your works, your projects, a blog maybe, and more cool stuff all relating to you. It can help a person get ahead and compare much better than other people in life. You may even choose to continue adding on to your personal resume webpage in the future, but try creating a layout of it. Come up with questions if you have any.
