@bw@social.lol Congrats, any efforts to lighten the Web and return it to the people are worthwhile. I noticed that the request to https://htmlforpeople.com/assets/js/hero.js is currently serving a redirect loop but thankfully it doesn't seem to affect the site functionality.

@bw@social.lol This looks really good! I’ll take a deeper look later and will probably start recommending it to people. :D

@bw@social.lol When a client asks me to build a website that they can maintain, I use basic HTML. IMHO It’s easier to teach them HTML than Wordpress or other CMSs. Years later their sites are still online, updated, and I haven’t heard any complaints. Your book is likely to make my job even easier! 💻️ 👍️ 😁

@bw@social.lol The link doesn't seem to work for me, at least with Firefox.

@bw@social.lol fwiw I’m getting a couple of different “too many redirects” warnings on iOS Safari and a “too many HTTP redirects” in Firefox & Firefox Focus. I tried your link as well as typing it in directly. Maybe you’re too popular? I can’t wait to check it out!

@bw@social.lol The page won’t load for me… I’m getting a too many redirects error :(

@bw@social.lol Hi, I just tried to take a look at this and it seems like the server is in an infinite loop of redirects to the same URL. (Tested with a couple of different browsers as well as curl, so I don't think it's browser-specific.)

@bw@social.lol Nice! I recently committed to (eventually) coding my own website by hand, and this will be an invaluable resource.

@bw@social.lol this is so cool wtf. how'd you get this idea

@bw@social.lol Wonderful!! I first learned HTML 3.5 from a Dummies book. I'm a writer now, and to my shock, in 2021 I worked as an SME with a young web dev my client hired. He not know a lick of HTML. I ended up doing some of the web dev work for him, even though my skills are still stuck in 2003. I've found it hard to find good HTML quick-lookup reference materials online now for when I want to just bang out a quick site but forgot an attribute. Awesome of you to teach this skill. HTML is very easy and versatile, and kids can be empowered like I once was.

@bw@social.lol I should buy this book because I was a designer for a short time in 2006 and the internet was still wonky at the time but had improved a lot since then.

@bw@social.lol That's an excellent introduction to building websites - nice work!

@bw@social.lol Just going through the book now, should pick this kind of thing back up anyway. Oh, you put tags on their own lines? That's cool, I've usually seen them on the same line as the content, but that does seem more organized to put them on their own line.

@bw@social.lol What an absolutely lovely ressource! 🏆 Can’t wait to dig in. And teach my son enough English so he can use this to learn HTML 😄 ⚠️ Heads up: In dark mode, the aside boxes with the robot mascot are currently showing white text on a white background.

@bw@social.lol This looks really cool! I'll be saving this for later. However, I didn't know these boxes were supposed to have text in them until I highlighted it. Using Firefox 115 on Linux
