i am correcting myself after I watched Ivans HTML basics video: apparently you do not have to name it as “index.html” it is just the extension that it is important.
Another thing that may help you guys who are beginners like me: you can install packages in Atom that they are useful:
the first one is (atom-html-preview) so you can see directly how your website looks like (you find it under “settings” then “install” and you just search for it and install it)
the second one is : “autoclose-html” that enable automatically to close the tag after you open it. It make it easier :slightly_smiling_face:

1What is HTML?
Hypertext Markup Language
2What is HTML used for?
It the code to help structure websites with a list of bullet points or images
3Why are we learning HTML?
Building a website this will help how it will look and act for users who would visit your website.
4What is an HTML tag?
As someone who knows nothing about programming other answers if I’ve got my understanding incorrect.
There are like commands that highlight text with opening and closing tags e.g

then something.
To close it off you need to do this at the right place or you get something different using the same tag but with a forward slash

I believe there are loads of them but the command are the same Open <?> to close remembering the forward slash
5What is the structure of an HTML tag?
Think I covered this question 4
6What is an attribute?
You have an opening and closing tag and all together this is an element. inside this element you can have attribute for targeting later with style things and other stuff. I’ll guess I understand this later.
7What is the anatomy of an HTML document?
This wraps up the basics of the HTML elements starting with Doctype html you have your head elements and body elements
this bit I didn’t undertsand — this element sets the character set your document should use to UTF-8, which includes most characters from the vast majority of human written languages. Essentially it can now handle any textual content you might put on it. There is no reason not to set this, and it can help avoid some problems later on. think its importance.

Really enjoying this
