HTML Tools & Workflow

Pascual Vila

Frontend Instructor // Code Syllabus

A craftsman is only as good as their tools. In Web Development, our main tools are the Code Editor, the Browser, and the Inspector.

The Text Editor

While you can write HTML in Notepad, specialized editors like VS Code or Sublime Text offer features like syntax highlighting, auto-completion (IntelliSense), and error detection.

The Browser & Rendering

Browsers (Chrome, Firefox, Safari) contain engines that parse your HTML code and render it into pixels. If your code has syntax errors, the browser often tries to fix them, but this can lead to unexpected layouts.

Developer Tools (DevTools)

Every modern browser has built-in DevTools. By pressing F12 or right-clicking and selecting "Inspect", you can view the DOM tree, debug CSS, and check the Console for JavaScript errors.
