Headings
Paragraphs
Lists (but unordered lists and order lists)
Adding images to a webpage
Adding links to a webpage
etc.

About me?
Well, my name is Darragh O'Neill and I first began to code during the summer of 2017 where I spent some time learning the basics of HTML and CSS on YouTube.
I then went out to do a coding bootcamp and subsequently went to study Software Development at Maynooth University.
I have a real passion for coding and if you're interested in learning the basics of web development but don't know where to start, hopefully this free course on HTML will be able to help!
I have published 2 other courses on Udemy that have received positive feedback, so hopefully this free course on HTML will help.
What to expect from this course?
HTML is only the start of any web development journey. Please leave a positive review if you'd like to see more content on Udemy in the future.
Thanks!
