π» Website Design Lesson 10: Introduction to CSS
After learning HTML, the next important technology in web design is CSS.
CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) is used to style and design a website. While HTML creates the structure of the page, CSS makes it beautiful and attractive.
π¨ What CSS can do:
Change text colors
Add backgrounds
Control spacing and layout
Make websites responsive
Create animations and effects
π Example of CSS
h1 {
color: blue;
font-size: 36px;
text-align: center;
}
This code tells the browser to:
Make the heading blue
Increase the size of the text
Align the text to the center
π‘ Important Tip:
A good website is not just about information β it must also look professional and easy to read. That is why CSS is very important.
π Assignment:
Create a simple HTML page and try changing the color and size of the text using CSS.

π Web Design Lesson 6 β Understanding HTML Structure
When creating a website, every web page follows a basic HTML structure. This structure helps the browser understand how to display your content.
A simple HTML page has three important parts:
πΉ β This is the root of the web page. Everything on the page is inside this tag.
πΉ β This section contains information about the page like the title, meta tags, and links to styles or scripts.
πΉ β This is where the actual content appears such as text, images, buttons, and videos.
Example:
My First Website
Welcome to My Website
This is my first web page.
This is the foundation of every website on the internet.
π Next Lesson: I will show you how to add images and links to your website.
Web Design Lesson 6 β Viewing Your Web Page in a Browser
After creating your index.html file, the next step is to open it in a web browser to see your website.
Simply follow these steps:
1οΈβ£ Save your file as index.html
2οΈβ£ Go to the folder where the file is saved
3οΈβ£ Double-click the file or right-click and choose Open with Chrome / Edge / Firefox
Your browser will display the webpage you created with HTML.
This is how developers test and see their websites while building them.
In the next lesson, we will learn how to add headings and paragraphs to your webpage.
