How To Build A Captivating Presentation Using HTML, CSS, & JavaScript

Building beautiful presentations is hard. Often you're stuck with Keynote or PowerPoint, and the templates are extremely limited and generic. Well not anymore.

Today, we're going to learn how to create a stunning and animated presentation using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.

If you're a beginner to web development, don't fret! This tutorial will be easy enough to keep up with. So let's slide right into it!

Getting started

We're going to be using an awesome framework called Reveal.js . It provides robust functionality for creating interesting and customizable presentations.

  • Head over to the Reveal.js repository and clone the project (you can also fork this to your GitHub namespace).

GitHub

  • Change directories into your newly cloned folder and run npm install to download the package dependencies. Then run npm start to run the project.

Localhost

The index.html file holds all of the markup for the slides. This is one of the downsides of using Reveal.js; all of the content will be placed inside this HTML file.

Themes

Built-In Themes

Reveal includes 11 built-in themes for you to choose from:

Themes

Changing The Theme

  • Open index.html
  • Change the CSS import to reflect the theme you want to use

VS Code

The theme files are:

  • solarized.css

Custom Themes

It's quite easy to create a custom theme. Today, I'll be using my custom theme from a presentation I gave called "How To Build Kick-Ass Website: An Introduction To Front-end Development."

Here is what my custom slides look like:

Slides

Creating A Custom Theme

  • Open css/theme/src inside your IDE. This holds all of the Sass files ( .scss ) for each theme. These files will be transpiled to CSS using Grunt (a JavaScript task runner). If you prefer to write CSS, go ahead and just create the CSS file inside css/theme.
  • Create a new  .scss file. I will call mine custom.scss . You may have to stop your localhost and run npm run build to transpile your Sass code to CSS.
  • Inside the index.html file, change the CSS theme import in the <head> tag to use the name of the newly created stylesheet. The extension will be  .css , not  .scss .
  • Next, I created variables for all of the different styles I wanted to use. You can find custom fonts on Google Fonts. Once the font is downloaded, be sure to add the font URL's into the index.html file.

Here are the variables I chose to use:

  • Title Font: Viga
  • Content Font: Open Sans
  • Code Font: Courier New
  • Cursive Font: Great Vibes
  • Yellow Color: #F9DC24
  • Add a  .reveal class to the custom Sass file. This will wrap all of the styles to ensure our custom theme overrides any defaults. Then, add your custom styling!

Unfortunately, due to time constraints, I'll admit that I used quite a bit of  !important overrides in my CSS. This is horrible practice and I don't recommend it. The reveal.css file has extremely specific CSS styles, so I should have, if I had more time, gone back and ensured my class names were more specific so I could remove the  !importants .

Mixins & Settings

Reveal.js also comes with mixins and settings you can leverage in your custom theme.

To use the mixins and settings, just import the files into your custom theme:

Mixins You can use the vertical-gradient, horizontal-gradient, or radial-gradient mixins to create a neat visual effect.

All you have to do is pass in the required parameters (color value) and voila, you've got a gradient!

Settings In the settings file, you'll find useful variables like heading sizes, default fonts and colors, and more!

Content

The structure for adding new content is:

.reveal > .slides > section

The <section> element represents one slide. Add as many sections as you need for your content.

Vertical Slides

To create vertical slides, simply nest sections.

Transitions

There are several different slide transitions for you to choose from:

To use them, add a data-transition="{name}" to the <section> which contains your slide data.

Fragments are great for highlighting specific pieces of information on your slide. Here is an example.

To use fragments, add a class="fragment {type-of-fragment}" to your element.

The types of fragments can be:

  • fade-in-then-out
  • fade-in-then-semi-out
  • highlight-current-blue
  • highlight-red
  • highlight-green
  • highlight-blue

You can additionally add indices to your elements to indicate in which order they should be highlighted or displayed. You can denote this using the data-fragment-index={index} attribute.

There are way more features to reveal.js which you can leverage to build a beautiful presentation, but these are the main things which got me started.

To learn more about how to format your slides, check out the reveal.js tutorial . All of the code for my presentation can be viewed on GitHub. Feel free to steal my theme!

I really love reveal.js. I haven't spoken in a while so I haven't used it. I've always used their themes and never thought about making my own. This is probably super useful for company presentations, too. I'm SO over google slides. Trying to format code in those is a nightmare LOL

The best thing in this - and now I'm not being ironic - is that while you work on a not so much technical task - creating a presentation - you still have to code. And the result is nice.

On the other hand, I know what my presentation skills teachers would say. Well, because they said it... :) If you really want to deliver a captivating presentation, don't use slides at all. Use the time to prepare what you want to say.

I'm not that good - yet, but taking their advice, if must I use few slides, with little information on them and with minimal graphical distractions. My goal is to impress them by what I say, not is what behind my head.

I'm going to a new training soon, where the first day we have to deliver a presentation supported by slides at a big auditorium and the next day we have to go back and forget about the slides and just get on stage and speak. I can't wait for it.

How about github.com/team-fluxion/slide-gazer ?

It's my fourth attempt at creating a simple presentation tool to help one present ideas quickly without having to spend time within a presentation editor like Microsoft PowerPoint. It directly converts markdown documents into elegant presentations with a few features and is still under development.

Yup, RevealJS is awesome !

Previously I either used PPT or Google Slides. One is a paid license and the other requires an internet connection.

The cool thing about it is that since it's just HTML files behind the scenes, the only software you need to view it with is a web browser. Has amazing syntax-highlighting support via PrismJS. And as a web developer, it makes it simple to integrate other npm packages if need be...

I actually just used it to present a talk this week!

Check out slides.com If you want to skip the heavy lifting and/or use a presentation platform based on reveal.js.

Everything is still easy to customize. The platform provides a UI to work from and an easy way to share your stuff.

BTW - I have no affiliation with slides.com, or even a current account. I used the service a few years back when I regularly presented and wanted to get over PowerPoint, Google Slides, Prezi, etc.

Well I guess you get to look ultra pro by skipping the moment where you have to adjust for display detection and make sure your notes don’t show because you plugged your display connector in 😩 But If the conference has no wifi then we’re screwed I guess

I like Reveal, but I still have not moved past using Google docs slides because every presentation I do has to be done yesterday. Hoping that I can use Reveal more often this year as I get more time to work on each presentation.

Basement Level 1

Press down or up to navigate.

Basement Level 2

Basement level 3.

That's it, time to go back up.

Up arrow

Not a coder? No problem. There's a fully-featured visual editor for authoring these, try it out at http://slid.es .

Point of View

Press ESC to enter the slide overview.

Hold down alt and click on any element to zoom in on it using zoom.js . Alt + click anywhere to zoom back out.

Works in Mobile Safari

Try it out! You can swipe through the slides and pinch your way to the overview.

Marvelous Unordered List

  • No order here

Fantastic Ordered List

  • One is smaller than...
  • Two is smaller than...

Transition Styles

You can select from different transitions, like: Cube - Page - Concave - Zoom - Linear - Fade - None - Default

Reveal.js comes with a few themes built in: Default - Sky - Beige - Simple - Serif - Night Moon - Solarized

* Theme demos are loaded after the presentation which leads to flicker. In production you should load your theme in the <head> using a <link> .

Global State

Set data-state="something" on a slide and "something" will be added as a class to the document element when the slide is open. This lets you apply broader style changes, like switching the background.

Custom Events

Additionally custom events can be triggered on a per slide basis by binding to the data-state name.

Slide Backgrounds

Set data-background="#007777" on a slide to change the full page background to the given color. All CSS color formats are supported.

Image Backgrounds

Repeated image backgrounds, background transitions.

Pass reveal.js the backgroundTransition: 'slide' config argument to make backgrounds slide rather than fade.

Background Transition Override

You can override background transitions per slide by using data-background-transition="slide" .

Clever Quotes

These guys come in two forms, inline: “The nice thing about standards is that there are so many to choose from” and block:

“For years there has been a theory that millions of monkeys typing at random on millions of typewriters would reproduce the entire works of Shakespeare. The Internet has proven this theory to be untrue.”

Pretty Code

Create Incredible Web Presentations with Reveal.js

Gabriel Delight

Feb 24, 2023 · 12 min read

Create Incredible Web Presentations with Reveal.js

Reveal.js is an open-source HTML presentation framework. Anyone with a web browser can use it to make attractive presentations for free. The program allows anyone with a web browser to create fully-featured and interactive presentations that support CSS 3D transforms , nested slides, and a variety of other capabilities. It is recommended for those interested in programmable techniques and web technology.

It has lots of benefits. Some of these consist of the following:

  • Responsive design: Reveal.js presentations scale to fit the user’s screen, making them compatible with a wide range of devices.
  • Interactive elements: Reveal.js supports these elements, which can improve user experience and make presentations more interesting. Interactive elements include links, images, and videos.
  • Themes can be readily modified to reflect the user’s brand or tastes to make a presentation look more attractive when the theme matches the content in a slide.
  • Simple and intuitive user interface: Reveal.js enables users to build and edit presentations with minimal technical expertise.
  • Open-source: Reveal.js is free to use, and its source code is available for users to examine and edit.

React Reveal vs. Reveal.js: what’s the difference?

The distinction between React Reveal and Reveal.js will be demonstrated in this section:

  • HTML, CSS, and JavaScript are the foundations on which Reveal.js is constructed, but React Reveal requires React.
  • Reveal.js is the way to go if you want to make static presentations and need to deal with a vanilla JavaScript-based project. React Reveal is the greatest option for creating interactive presentations if you are working with React.
  • You can make interactive slides with Reveal.js, which has a number of features like slides and transitions. You can also make interactive slides with React Reveal, but you can also do so while using React components .
  • Additional capabilities offered by React Reveal include a higher degree of customization and support for animations.

Alternatives to Reveal.js

Many Reveal.js alternatives may be utilized to make engaging presentations with eye-catching visuals. Several well-liked choices include:

  • Impress.js , a JavaScript library that enables the creation of 3D presentations with a range of transitional effects.
  • Prezi : An online presentation tool that lets users zoom in and out of slides to make dynamic, interactive presentations.
  • PhotoSwipe : An open-source JavaScript picture gallery and lightbox, PhotoSwipe. It is modular, independent of frameworks, and made for desktop and mobile devices.
  • Owl Carousel 2 : Owl Carousel 2 is a jQuery carousel plugin with full customization and touch and drag functionality.
  • FlexSlider is a fantastic, totally responsive jQuery slider plugin. It offers designers and developers a quick way to launch a slideshow, carousel, or image slider.
  • Keynote : Apple’s PowerPoint-like presentation software for Mac and iOS devices.
  • Haiku Deck : A web-based application that enables users to design minimalistic presentations with spectacular visual effects.

Getting Started

In this session, we’ll use Reveal.js to create spectacular presentations by utilizing JavaScript. In this section, we’ll learn everything we need to know to get Reveal.js running on our project. To write code to create stunning presentations, let’s first understand the basic setup and installations before using Reveal.

Installations

The best way to install Reveal.js is to clone the source code on GitHub. Utilizing this is extremely simple for you. Just use the code below in your terminal to clone the GitHub repository.

Run the following command to install all the necessary packages and start Reveal.js after you’ve cloned the repository for it in your working directory.

Furthermore, once Reveal.js has been successfully installed in your project, you must start the Reveal.js server on port 8000 (the default port) by executing the following code:

Please use the code below if you decide to run the Reveal.js server on a different port:

You can easily install Reveal.js manually using npm or yarn if you don’t want to clone the GitHub repository:

You may easily include the Reveal.js file as an ES6 module once it has been installed in your front-end framework, such as React:

Folder Structure

This section will go over Reveal.js’ folder structure. When changes are made, the folder structure might change, but this won’t affect how Reveal.js is utilized in our project.

Since we are not the original developers, we won’t be explaining every file in Reveal.js. I’ll go over the most significant directories and files first:

  • CSS files that describe how a presentation should appear and be organized are stored in the CSS folder.
  • The JS folder houses the JS files that provide interaction and other functionality.
  • The presentation begins with a file called index.html that also contains the HTML markup for the slides.
  • A reveal.js file contains reveal.js’ setup parameters.

Reveal.js’s folder structure is shown in the image below:

-

As you can see in the screenshot above, I installed Reveal.js in the opened terminal and launched it by typing npm start .

Starter Template

The starter template is just what is loaded in the index.html page of the Reveal.js folder structure, which we mentioned in the section labeled “Folder Structure” above.

Launch your browser and navigate to the following URLs: http://localhost:8000 The link takes you to the active running page where our presentations will appear in the browser:

This section will concentrate on the contents of Reveal.js. On Reveal Web Presentation, the contents are the components of a responsive presentation. We can use Reveal.js on any project once we have worked with all the components that go into making responsive, stunning presentations, covering Markup, Markdown, Backgrounds, Media, Code Math, Fragments, Links, and Layout.

Markup is the first step in getting started with Reveal.js, and you must use the section element to build markups in Reveal.js. Please remember that the parent class will have the class name . reveal , and the reveal class div will have a child element with the class name .slide . If you place the section element line by line, as in the code below, you will have a slider that moves horizontally.

To make a vertically moving slide, add sections within a section; this is a simple technique; see the code below:

Just use the up and down arrows to view the previous and next slides.

Please use the code below to add a horizontal and vertical sliding format. It’s really simple; the horizontal section of our code will stand alone and not be inside of any section; however, the vertical section will have sections inside of a section.

Backgrounds

It’s simple to add a background color to a slider in Reveal.js; all you have to do is include an attribute that initializes the color for a specific area. You can use the data-background-color attribute to add a background color to a section and specify the value to any color name you choose. View a responsible slider with background colors by referring to the code and outputs below.

Click here to read more about background colors in Reveal.js.

In Reveal.js, media can be used as a presentation. We’ll be showing a video as a presentation in this section. The data-autoplay autoplay attribute must be included in the video tag as an attribute to make the video play when its slide section is open. Code:

You can present codes on the slide and have the code highlighted using Reveal.js. Highlight.js is the only thing that powers the code highlight. You will always use the <code> element when presenting code in Reveal.js, and all you need to do to make HTML escape the default behavior and treat the content as genuine code. Add the data-line-numbers attribute to the <code> element and specify values that will represent the line of code that will be highlighted, as shown below.

-

In Reveal.js, mathematical expressions can be displayed. To use math in your presentation, you must include the RevealMath.KaTeX plugin, which will reflect the math in your presentation.

Let’s run The Lorenz Equations as a presentation:

The Lorenz equations are a set of partial differential equations that describe two-dimensional fluid flow. Please click here to learn more.

On a slide, fragments are utilized to draw attention to or gradually reveal specific parts. Before moving on to the next slide, each element with the class fragment will be stepped through.

Please include the data-fragment-index attribute and set its value to a number if you wish to use fragments. The number value indexed 1 will appear first, followed by the number 2, in that order.

While watching slides, Reveal.js also simplified things for us. The following slide in a presentation can be easily reached by clicking a link , and the previous slide can likewise be reached by doing the same.

If you want to navigate to a slider, be sure that the portion of the slider you are visiting has an Id that matches the value of the “href” attribute on the HTML anchor element that is now being clicked.

To instantly navigate to the first page of the slide without passing through any intermediary sections, add ”#/0” (0 == first-slide) to the clickable link that will take you to the first page of the slide.

This section will go over the layout in Reveal.js. You can change the text size, and you can also construct a slide by showing an item on top of the previous item; this is known as staking.

Let’s practice stacking by simply laying images on top of one another.

-

Now that we understand how stacking works, let’s spend some time working with FIT TEXT. We’ll display some text in a responsive large format in this part under layout by simply utilizing the class name r-fit-text. Below is a code sample of big text applied to Session Replay:

Please note that you can move forward and backward with the arrow keys.

Customization

In this section, we’ll customize some of Reveal.js’s presentations, focusing on Themes and Transitions, the two most significant things to consider while working with Reveal.js.

Theming is essential for creating anything on the internet. In Reveal.js, you can integrate some theme collections supplied by Reveal.js developers.

To use a theme of your choice, import the theme’s CSS styles into your project. The default theme is black when you install reveal.js or clone the Reveal.js repository. A line of code for incorporating a theme into your project is provided below:

Look closely at the code above; you can see where I wrote theme-name ; please replace it with any of the theme names listed below:

  • Black (default)

Below, I used a theme name titled sky on a slide:

Utilizing the dracula theme produces the theme below:

Now that we’ve learned more about theming , I’d like you to experiment with different theme names to see how they look on your web presentation slide.

Transitions

Reveal.js provides us with some amazing transition effects to use while making a presentation on the web. It is quite simple to use these transition effects , and some of these transition effects include:

-

To use these effects, insert a data-transition attribute into your HTML element and set the attribute’s value to the name of the transition effect listed above.

That’s all for transitions in this section; if you want to learn more about Reveal.js transitions, please click here .

We’ll go through presentation features in Reveal.js, such as vertical slides and auto-slide in this section, and since we’ve already covered the implementation largely on vertical slides, we’ll go over more in depth. Let’s get started.

Vertical Slides

Moving between slides by default employs a horizontal sliding transition. These horizontal slides are the main or top-level slides in your presentation. We can’t rely on just one direction in a presentation, and the usage of presenting on slide vertically is critical. We learned how to design a slide that uses vertical direction earlier in this article.

Below is a code sample on utilizing vertical slides:

Auto-Animate

Reveal.js supports auto animation . The auto animate plays a vital role in web presentation. Auto animation applies smooth transition to a slide content, which is noticeable when viewing a presentation. For example, when you set margin-top: 40px to a section, you will see the smooth animation on how the second section comes down slowly. We’ll be implementing some examples here in this section.

To initiate the auto-animate to a section, add the data-auto-animate attribute to the two or multiple sections you want to integrate the auto-animate effect.

The code output above shows that we added margin-top: 100px to the section child (h1) using data-auto-animate , and you can see the effect applied smoothly and removing the default slide horizontal direction to a slightly vertical direction. Please remember that the element in this example is internally hidden but moved using the margin-top attribute. JavaScript will use a CSS transform to achieve fluid movement. Most CSS attributes may be animated and transitioned using the same technique, allowing you to modify positions, font-size, line-height, color, padding, and margin.

We’ll be working on auto-slide in a slide in this section. This is relatively straightforward to accomplish; simply look at our JavaScript code at the bottom of our HTML page and add the autoSlide duration as an integer and set the Boolean value of a loop to true :

JavaScript:

A play/pause icon can be found in the bottom left corner of the slide, as shown in the output above. A round loader describes the progress of the timing function in the icon. The following code is for the output presentation:

Slide Numbers

Numbering is important in slides, and you may add a slider number in two ways: obtain the current slide number and get the slide number and the overall slide count (X/X).

Set slideNumber to true in the config section at the bottom of the HTML page to obtain the real slide number.

Slide Code:

If you look closely at the output above, you will notice a page number counter in the bottom right corner of the screen. When I reached the vertical part while sliding horizontally, the counter format changed to 3.1, which indicates 3 represents the last horizontal slide page and 1 represents the first vertical slide.

To set a slide number in (X/X) format, set your config to the code below:

Please look closely at the bottom right corner of the screen; you will see the page numbering in X/X format. See the code for the output below:

Please, click here to learn more about slide numbers.

Useful hints and guidelines for Reveal.js

In this section, we’ll discover valuable hints and guidelines for working with Reveal.js, which will greatly improve our experience working with Reveal.js for presentation:

  • Use keyboard shortcuts to navigate through slides: Use arrow keys or the space bar to move ahead and back through slides.
  • Personalize the appearance and feel of your presentation: You can alter the theme, font, and background color of your slides with Reveal.js.
  • To add background images to presentations, use the data-background attribute: You can change a slide’s background image by adding the data-background attribute to the slide’ element.
  • To set the transition effect between slides, use the data-transition attribute: Transition effects such as ‘slide,’ ‘fade,’ ‘convex,’ and ‘concave’ are available.

I hope you enjoyed this article; we covered everything we needed to know to get started with Reveal.js. We also learned about how to use Reveal.js in our project. There are many more features in Reveal.js, and you can learn more by visiting Reveal’s official website . You may also begin integrating presentations into client’s projects or your project by using Reveal.js; this will help you grow your experience utilizing Reveal.js.

How to Create Presentation Slides with HTML and CSS

  • March 15, 2022

As I sifted through the various pieces of software that are designed for creating presentation slides, it occurred to me: why learn yet another program, when I can instead use the tools that I’m already familiar with? 

We can easily create beautiful and interactive presentations with HTML, CSS and JavaScript, the three basic web technologies. In this tutorial, we’ll use modern HTML5 markup to structure our slides, we’ll use CSS to style the slides and add some effects, and we’ll use JavaScript to trigger these effects and reorganize the slides based on click events. 

This tutorial is perfect for those of you new to HTML5, CSS and JavaScript, who are looking to learn something new by building.

Here’s the final preview of the presentation slide we’re going to build:

You can also find the complete source code in the GitHub repo .

Let’s begin.

Table of Contents

1. Create the Directory Structure

Before we get started, let’s go ahead and create our folder structure; it should be fairly simple. We’ll need:

index.html css/style.css js/scripts.js

This is a simple base template. Your files remain blank for the time being. We’ll fill that shortly.

2. Create the Starter Markup

Let’s begin by creating the base markup for our presentation page. Paste the following snippet into your index.html file.

<!DOCTYPE html> <html lang=”en”> <head> <meta charset=”UTF-8″> <meta name=”viewport” content=”width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0″> <meta http-equiv=”X-UA-Compatible” content=”ie=edge”> <title>Document</title> <link rel=”stylesheet” href=”css/style.css”>

<!– Font Awesome Icon CDN –> <link rel=”stylesheet” href=”https://cdnjs.cloudflare.com/ajax/libs/font-awesome/6.0.0/css/all.min.css” integrity=”sha512-9usAa10IRO0HhonpyAIVpjrylPvoDwiPUiKdWk5t3PyolY1cOd4DSE0Ga+ri4AuTroPR5aQvXU9xC6qOPnzFeg==” crossorigin=”anonymous” referrerpolicy=”no-referrer” /> </head> <body> <div class=”container” <div id=”presentation-area”> <!– slides go here –> </div> </div> <script src=”js/index.js” type=”text/javascript”></script> </body> </html>

From the base markup, you can tell that we are importing Font Awesome Icons, our stylesheet ( style.css ) and our JavaScript ( index.js ). 

Now we’ll add the HTML markup for the actual slides inside the <div> wrapper:

<section class=”presentation”>

<!– Slide 1 –> <div class=”slide show”> <div class=”heading”> Presentation on C# </div> <div class=”content grid center”> <h3 class=”title”> What is C# ? <br /> All You Need To Know </h3> </div> </div>

<!– Slide 1 –> <div class=”slide”> <div class=”heading”> Overview </div> <div class=”content grid center”> <h3 class=”title”> Introduction to C+ </h3> <p class=”sub-title”> Basic and Advanced Concepts </p> <p>Lecture No. 1</p> <p>My Email Address</p> <p><a href=””> [email protected] </a></p> </div> </div>

<!– Add 5 more slides here –> </section>

We have seven slides in total, and each slide is comprised of the heading section and the content section.

Only one slide will be shown at a time. This functionality is handled by the .show class which will be implemented later on in our stylesheet. 

Using JavaScript, later on, we’ll dynamically add the .show class to the active slide on the page.

Below the slides, we’ll add the markup for our slide’s counter and tracker:

<div id=”presentation-area”> <!– <section class=”slides”><-></section> –> <section class=”counter”> 1 of 6 </section> </div>

Later on, we’ll use JavaScript to update the text content as the user navigates through the slides.

Finally, we’ll add the slide navigator just below the counter:

<div id=”presentation-area”> <!– <section class=”slides”><-></section> –> <!– <section class=”counter”><-></section> –> <section class=”navigation”> <button id=”full-screen” class=”btn-screen show”> <i class=”fas fa-expand”></i> </button>

<button id=”small-screen” class=”btn-screen”> <i class=”fas fa-compress”></i> </button>

<button id=”left-btn” class=”btn”> <i class=”fas fa-solid fa-caret-left”></i> </button>

<button id=”right-btn” class=”btn”> <i class=”fa-solid fa-caret-right”></i> </button> </section> </div>

This section consists of four buttons responsible for navigating left and right and switching between full-screen mode and small-screen mode. Again, we’ll use the class .show to regulate which button appears at a time.

That’ll be all for the HTML part, let’s move over to styling.

3. Make It Pretty

Our next step takes place within our stylesheet. We’ll be focusing on both aesthetics as well as functionality here. To make each slide translate from left to right, we’ll need to target the class .show with a stylesheet to show the element.

Here’s the complete stylesheet for our project:

* { margin: 0; padding: 0; box-sizing: border-box; font-family: sans-serif; transition: all 0.5s ease; }

body { width: 100vw; height: 100vh; display: flex; align-items: center; justify-content: center; }

ul { margin-left: 2rem; }

ul li, a { font-size: 1.2em; }

.container { background: #212121; width: 100%; height: 100%; position: relative; display: flex; align-items: center; justify-content: center; }

#presentation-area { width: 1000px; height: 500px; position: relative; background: purple; }

/* Styling all three sections */ #presentation-area .presentation { width: 100%; height: 100%; overflow: hidden; background: #ffffff; position: relative; }

#presentation-area .counter { position: absolute; bottom: -30px; left: 0; color: #b6b6b6; }

#presentation-area .navigation { position: absolute; bottom: -45px; right: 0; }

/* On full screen mode */ #presentation-area.full-screen { width: 100%; height: 100%; overflow: hidden; }

#presentation-area.full-screen .counter { bottom: 15px; left: 15px; }

#presentation-area.full-screen .navigation { bottom: 15px; right: 15px; }

#presentation-area.full-screen .navigation .btn:hover { background: #201e1e; color: #ffffff; }

#presentation-area.full-screen .navigation .btn-screen:hover { background: #201e1e; } /* End full screen mode */

/* Buttons */ .navigation button { width: 30px; height: 30px; border: none; outline: none; margin-left: 0.5rem; font-size: 1.5rem; line-height: 30px; text-align: center; cursor: pointer; }

.navigation .btn { background: #464646; color: #ffffff; border-radius: 0.25rem; opacity: 0; transform: scale(0); }

.navigation .btn.show { opacity: 1; transform: scale(1); visibility: visible; }

.navigation .btn-screen { background: transparent; color: #b6b6b6; visibility: hidden; }

.btn-screen.show { opacity: 1; transform: scale(1); visibility: visible; }

.btn-screen.hover { color: #ffffff; box-shadow: 0px 10px 30px rgba(0, 0, 0, 0.1); } /* End Buttons */

/* content */ .presentation .content { padding: 2em; width: 100%; height: calc(100% – 100px); z-index: 11; }

.presentation .content.grid { display: grid; }

.presentation .content.grid.center { justify-content: center; align-items: center; text-align: center; }

.content .title { font-size: 3em; color: purple; }

.content .sub-title { font-size: 2.5em; color: purple; }

.content p { font-size: 1.25em; margin-bottom: 1rem; } /* End Content Stylesheet */

/* Slide */ .presentation .slide { position: absolute; top: 0; left: 0; width: 100%; height: 100%; background: #ffffff; opacity: 0; transform: scale(0); visibility: none; }

.slide.show { opacity: 1; transform: scale(1); visibility: visible; }

.slide .heading { padding: 2rem; background: purple; font-size: 2em; font-weight: bold; color: #ffffff; }

4. Enable Slide Navigation

Whenever we click on the left or right icon, we want the next slide or previous slide to appear. We also want to be able to toggle between full-screen mode and small-screen mode. 

Furthermore, we want the slide’s counter to display the accurate slide number on every slide. All these features will be enabled with JavaScript.

Inside js/index.js , we’ll begin by storing references to the presentation wrapper, the slides, and the active slide:

let slidesParentDiv = document.querySelector(‘.slides’); let slides = document.querySelectorAll(‘.slide’); let currentSlide = document.querySelector(‘.slide.show’);

Next, we’ll store references to the slide counter and both of the slide navigators (left and right icons):

var slideCounter = document.querySelector(‘.counter’); var leftBtn = document.querySelector(‘#left-btn’); var rightBtn = document.querySelector(‘#right-btn’);

Then store references to the whole presentation container and both button icons for going into full screen and small screen mode:

let presentationArea = document.querySelector(‘#presentation-area’); var fullScreenBtn = document.querySelector(‘#full-screen’); var smallScreenBtn = document.querySelector(‘#small-screen’);

Now that we’re done with the references, we’ll initialize some variables with default values:

var screenStatus = 0; var currentSlideNo = 1 var totalSides = 0;

screenStatus represents the screen orientation. 0 represents a full screen mode and 1 represents a small screen mode. 

currentSlideNo represents the current slide number, which as expected is the first slide. totalSlides is initialized with 0, but this will be replaced by the actual number of our slides.

Moving the Presentation to the Next and Previous Slides

Next, we’ll add click event listeners to the left button, right button, full screen button and small screen button:

leftBtn.addEventListener(‘click’, moveToLeftSlide); rightBtn.addEventListener(‘click’, moveToRightSlide);

fullScreenBtn.addEventListener(‘click’, fullScreenMode); smallScreenBtn.addEventListener(‘click’, smallScreenMode);

We bind corresponding functions that will run when the click event is triggered on the corresponding element.

Here are the two functions responsible for changing the slide:

function moveToLeftSlide() { var tempSlide = currentSlide; currentSlide = currentSlide.previousElementSibling; tempSlide.classList.remove(‘show’); currentSlide.classList.add(‘show’); }

function moveToRightSlide() { var tempSlide = currentSlide; currentSlide = currentSlide.nextElementSibling; tempSlide.classList.remove(‘show’); currentSlide.classList.add(‘show’); }

In the function moveToLeftSlide, we basically access the previous sibling element (ie. the previous slide), remove the .show class on the current slide and add it to that sibling. This will move the presentation to the previous slide.

We do the exact opposite of this in the function moveToRightSlide. Because nextElementSibling is the opposite of previousElementSibling, we’ll be getting the next sibling instead.

Code for Showing the Presentation in Full Screen and Small Screen

Recall that we also added click event listeners to the full screen and small screen icons.

Here’s the function responsible for toggling full-screen mode:

function fullScreenMode() { presentationArea.classList.add(‘full-screen’); fullScreenBtn.classList.remove(‘show’); smallScreenBtn.classList.add(‘show’);

screenStatus = 1; }

function smallScreenMode() { presentationController.classList.remove(‘full-screen’); fullScreenBtn.classList.add(‘show’); smallScreenBtn.classList.remove(‘show’);

screenStatus = 0; }

Recall that presentationArea refers to the element that wraps the whole presentation. By adding the class full-screen to this element, we trigger the CSS that will expand it to take up the whole screen. 

Since we’re now in full-screen mode, we need to show the icon for reverting back to the small screen by adding the class .show to it. Finally, we update the variable screenStatus to 1.

For the smallScreenMode function, the opposite is done – we remove the class full-screen, show the expand button icon, and reupdate screenStatus.

Hidding Left and Right Icons in First and Last Slides 

Now, we need to invent a way to hide both the left and right buttons when we’re on the first slide and last slide respectively.

We’ll use the following two functions to achieve this:

function hideLeftButton() { if(currentSlideNo == 1) { toLeftBtn.classList.remove(‘show’); } else { toLeftBtn.classList.add(‘show’); } }

function hideRightButton() { if(currentSlideNo === totalSides) { toRightBtn.classList.remove(‘show’); } else { toRightBtn.classList.add(‘show’); } }

Both these functions perform a very simple task: they check for the current slide number and hide the left and right buttons when the presentation is pointing to the first and last slide respectively.

Updating and Displaying Slide Number

Because we’re making use of the variable currentSlideNo to hide or show the left and right button icons, we need a way to update it as the user navigates through the slides. 

We also need to display to the user what slide he or she is currently viewing.

We’ll create a function getCurrentSlideNo to update the current slide number:

function getCurrentSlideNo() { let counter = 0;

slides.forEach((slide, i) => { counter++

if(slide.classList.contains(‘show’)){ currentSlideNo = counter; } });

We start the counter at 0, and for each slide on the page, we increment the counter. We assign the active counter (ie. with the class .show) to the currentSlideNo variable. 

With that in place, we create another function that inserts some text into the slide counter:

function setSlideNo() { slideNumber.innerText = `${currentSlideNo} of ${totalSides}` }

So if we were on the second slide for example, the slide’s counter will read as: 2 of 6

Putting Everything Together

To ensure that all of these functions run in harmony, we’ll run them in a newly created init function that we’ll execute at start of the script, just below the references:

function init() {

getCurrentSlideNo(); totalSides = slides.length setSlideNo(); hideLeftButton(); hideRightButton(); }

We must also run init() at the bottom of both the moveToLeftSlide and moveToRightSlide functions:

function moveToLeftSlide() { // other code

function moveToRightSlide() { // other code

This will ensure that the function init runs every time the user navigates left or right in the presentation.

Wrapping Up

I hope this tutorial helped you understand basic web development better. Here we built a presentation slideshow from scratch using HTML, CSS and JavaScript.

With this project, you should have learned some basic HTML, CSS and JavaScript syntax to help you with web development.

5 of the Best Free HTML5 Presentation Systems

Google Slides Template

Frequently asked questions (faqs) about html5 presentation systems.

I have a lot of respect for Microsoft PowerPoint. It may be over-used and encourages people to create shocking slide shows, but it’s powerful and fun. I have just one criticism: all PowerPoint presentations look the same. It doesn’t matter how you change the colors, backgrounds, fonts or transitions — everyone can spot a PPT from a mile away. Fortunately, we now have another option: HTML5. Or, more specifically, HTML5 templates powered by JavaScript with CSS3 2D/3D transitions and animations. The benefits include:

  • it’s quicker to add a few HTML tags than use a WYSIWYG interface
  • you can update a presentation using a basic text editor on any device
  • files can be hosted on the web; you need never lose a PPT again
  • you can easily distribute a presentation without viewing software
  • it’s not PowerPoint and your audience will be amazed by your technical prowess.
  • you require web coding skills
  • positioning, effects and transitions are more limited
  • few systems offer slide notes (it’s a little awkward to show them separately)
  • it’s more difficult to print handouts

  • CSSS — CSS-based SlideShow System ( download )
  • Slides ( download )
  • HTML5Rocks (no direct downloads, but you can copy the source)

What are the key features to look for in an HTML5 presentation system?

When choosing an HTML5 presentation system, consider features such as ease of use, customization options, and compatibility with various devices. The system should have an intuitive interface that allows you to create presentations without any coding knowledge. Customization options are important for personalizing your presentation to match your brand or style. Additionally, the system should be compatible with different devices, including desktops, laptops, tablets, and smartphones, to ensure your audience can view your presentation without any issues.

How does HTML5 improve the presentation experience compared to traditional methods?

HTML5 enhances the presentation experience by offering interactive and dynamic content. Unlike traditional methods, HTML5 allows for the integration of multimedia elements like videos, audio, and animations directly into the presentation. This makes the presentation more engaging and interactive for the audience. Additionally, HTML5 presentations are web-based, meaning they can be accessed from any device with an internet connection, providing convenience and flexibility for both the presenter and the audience.

Are HTML5 presentations compatible with all browsers?

HTML5 presentations are generally compatible with all modern web browsers, including Google Chrome, Mozilla Firefox, Safari, and Microsoft Edge. However, there may be slight variations in how different browsers render HTML5 content. Therefore, it’s always a good idea to test your presentation on multiple browsers to ensure it displays correctly.

Can I use HTML5 presentation systems for professional purposes?

Yes, HTML5 presentation systems are suitable for a variety of professional purposes. They can be used for business presentations, educational lectures, product demonstrations, and more. The ability to incorporate multimedia elements and interactive features makes HTML5 presentations a powerful tool for conveying complex information in an engaging and understandable way.

How can I make my HTML5 presentation accessible to all users?

To make your HTML5 presentation accessible, ensure that all content is readable and navigable for users with different abilities. This includes providing alternative text for images, captions for videos, and using clear and simple language. Additionally, make sure your presentation is responsive, meaning it adjusts to fit different screen sizes and orientations.

Can I convert my existing PowerPoint presentations to HTML5?

Yes, many HTML5 presentation systems offer the ability to import and convert PowerPoint presentations. This allows you to leverage your existing content while benefiting from the enhanced features and capabilities of HTML5.

Do I need to know how to code to use HTML5 presentation systems?

While having some knowledge of HTML5 can be beneficial, many HTML5 presentation systems are designed to be user-friendly and do not require any coding skills. These systems often feature drag-and-drop interfaces and pre-designed templates to help you create professional-looking presentations with ease.

Can I share my HTML5 presentations online?

Yes, one of the major advantages of HTML5 presentations is that they can be easily shared online. You can publish your presentation on your website, share it via email, or even embed it in a blog post or social media update.

Are HTML5 presentations secure?

HTML5 presentations are as secure as any other web content. However, it’s important to follow best practices for web security, such as using secure hosting platforms and regularly updating your software to protect against potential vulnerabilities.

Can I track the performance of my HTML5 presentations?

Yes, many HTML5 presentation systems include analytics features that allow you to track viewer engagement and behavior. This can provide valuable insights into how your audience interacts with your presentation, helping you to improve and refine your content over time.

When working with WYSIWYG editors, it is easy to get distracted by the styling options. Slidev remedies that by separating the content and visuals. This allows you to focus on one thing at a time, while also being able to reuse the themes from the community. Slidev does not seek to replace other slide deck builders entirely. Rather, it focuses on catering to the developer community.

HTML BASICS Slides Presentation

Click to access all Slides..

This slide presentation shows basics of HTML.

HTML and XHTML are the foundation of all web development. HTML is used as the graphical user interface in client-side programs written in JavaScript. Server-side languages like PHP and Java also receive data from web pages and use HTML as the output mechanism. The emerging Ajax technologies likewise use HTML and XHTML as their visual engine. HTML was once a very loosely-defined language with very little standardization, but as it has become more important, the need for standards has become more apparent. Regardless of whether you choose to write HTML or XHTML, understanding the current standards will help you provide a solid foundation that will simplify all your other web coding. Fortunately HTML and XHTML are actually simpler than they used to be, because much of the functionality has moved to CSS.

Common Elements

Every page (HTML or XHTML shares certain elements in common.) All are essentially plain text files, with the .html extension. HTML files should not be created with a word processor, but in some type of editor that creates plain text. Every page has a large container (HTML or XHTML) and two major subcontainers, the head and the body. The head area contains information useful behind the scenes, such as CSS formatting instructions and JavaScript code. The body contains the part of the page that is visible to the user.

Tags and Attributes

An HTML document is based on the notion of tags. A tag is a piece of text inside angle brackets (<>). Tags typically have a beginning and an end, and usually contain some sort of text inside them. For example, a paragraph is normally denoted like this:

The <p> indicates the beginning of a paragraph. Text is then placed inside the tag, and the end of the paragraph is denoted by an end tag, which is similar to the start tag but with a slash (</p>.) It is common to indent content in a multi-line tag, but it is also legal to place tags on the same line:

Tags are sometimes enhanced by attributes, which are name value pairs that modify the tag. For example, the tag (used to embed an image into a page) usually includes the following attributes:

The src attribute describes where the image file can be found, and the alt attribute describes alternate text that is displayed if the image is unavailable.

Nested tags

Tags can be (and frequently are) nested inside each other. Tags cannot overlap, so <a><b></a></b> is not legal, but <a><b></b></a> is fine.

HTML VS XHTML

HTML has been around for some time. While it has done its job admirably, that job has expanded far more than anybody expected. Early HTML had very limited layout support. Browser manufacturers added many competing standards and web developers came up with clever workarounds, but the result is a lack of standards and frustration for web developers. The latest web standards (XHTML and the emerging HTML 5.0 standard) go back to the original purpose of HTML: to describe the structure of the data only, and leave all formatting to CSS (Please see the DZone CSS Refcard Series). XHTML is nothing more than HTML code conforming to the stricter standards of XML. The same style guidelines are appropriate whether you write in HTML or XHTML (but they tend to be enforced in XHTML):

Most of the requirements of XHTML turn out to be good practice whether you write HTML or XHTML. I recommend using XHTML strict so you can validate your code and know it follows the strictest standards.

XHTML has a number of flavors. The strict type is recommended, as it is the most up-to-date standard which will produce the most predictable results. You can also use a transitional type (which allows deprecated HTML tags) and a frameset type, which allows you to add frames. For most applications, the strict type is preferred.

HTML Template

The following code can be copied and pasted to form the foundation of a basic web page:

The structure of your web pages is critical to the success of programs based on those pages, so use a validating tool to ensure you haven't missed anything

Validating Tool Description
WC3 The most commonly used validator is online at http://validator.w3.org this free tool checks your page against the doctype you specify and ensures you are following the standards. This acts as a 'spell-checker' for your code and warns you if you made an error like forgetting to close a tag.
HTML Tidy There's an outstanding free tool called HTML tidy which not only checks your pages for validity, but also fixes most errors automatically. Download this tool at http://tidy.sourceforge.net/ or (better) use the HTML validator extension to build tidy into your browser.
HTML Validator extension The extension mechanism of Firefox makes it a critical tool for web developers. The HTML Validator extension is an invaluable tool. It automatically checks any page you view in your browser against both the w3 validation engine and tidy. It can instantly find errors, and repair them on the spot with tidy. With this free extension available at http://users.skynet. be/mgueury/mozilla/ , there's no good reason not to validate your code.

USEFUL OPEN SOURCE TOOLS

Some of the best tools for web development are available through the open source community at no cost at all. Consider these application as part of your HTML toolkit:

Open

Firebug https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/1843 is an add-on that adds full debugging capabilities to the browser. The firebug lite version even works with IE.

PAGE STRUCTURE ELEMENTS

The following elements are part of every web page.

Element Description
<html></html> Surrounds the entire page
<head></head> Contains header information (metadata, CSS styles, JavaScript code)
<title></title> Holds the page title normally displayed in the title bar and used in search results
<body></body> Contains the main body text. All parts of the page normally visible are in the body

KEY STRUCTURAL ELEMENTS

Most pages contain the following key structural elements:

Element Name Description
<h1>
</h1>
Heading 1Reserved fo strongest emphasis
<h2>
</h2>
Heading 2Secondary level heading. Headings go down to level 6, but <h1> through <h3> are most common
<p>
</p>
ParagraphMost of the body of a page should be enclosed in paragraphs
<div>
</div>
DivisionSimilar to a paragraph, but normally marks a section of a page. Divs usually contain paragraphs

LISTS AND DATA

Web pages frequently incorporate structured data so HTML includes several useful list and table tag

Element Name Description
<ul></ul> Unordered list Normally these lists feature bullets (but that can be changed with CSS)
<ol></ol> Ordered list These usually are numbered, but this can be changed with CSS
<li></li> List item Used to describe a list item in an unordered list or an ordered list
<dl></dl> Definition list Used for lists with name-value pairs
<dt></dt> Definition term The name in a name-value pair. Used in definition lists
<dd></dd> Definition description The value (or definition) of a name, value pair
<table></table> Table Defines beginning and end of a table
<tr></tr> Table row Defines a table row. A table normally consists of several <tr> pairs (one per row)
<td></td> Table data Indicates data in a table cell. <td> tags occur within <tr> (which occur within <table>)
<th></th> Table heading Indicates a table cell to be treated as a heading with special formatting

Standard List Types

HTML supports three primary list types. Ordered lists and unordered lists are the primary list types. By default, ordered lists use numeric identifiers, and unordered lists use bullets.

However, you can use the list-style-type CSS attribute to change the list marker to one of several types.

Lists can be nested inside each other

Definition lists

The special definition list is used for name / value pairs. The definition term (dt) is a word or phrase that is used as the list marker, and the definition data is normally a paragraph:

Use of tables

Tables were used in the past to overcome the page-layout shortcomings of HTML. That use is now deprecated in favor of CSS-based layout. Use tables only as they were intended, to display tabular data.

A table mainly consists of a series of table rows (tr.) Each table row consists of a number of table data (td) elements. The table heading (th) element can be used to indicate a table cell should be marked as a heading.

The rowspan and colspan attributes can be used to make a cell span more than one row or column.

Each row of a table should have the same number of columns, and each column should have the same number of rows. Use of the span attribute may require adjustment to other rows or columns.

LINKS AND IMAGES

Links and images are both used to incorporate external resources into a page. Both are reliant on URIs (Universal Resource Indicators), commonly referred to as URLs or addresses.

<a> (anchor) The anchor tag is used to provide the basic web link:

In this example, http://www.example.com is the site to be visited. The text "link to example.com" will be highlighted as a link.

absolute and relative references

<link>

The link tag is used primarily to pull in external CSS files:

<img>

The img tag is used in to attach an image. Valid formats are .jpg, .png, and .gif. An image should always be accompanied by an alt attribute describing the contents of the image.

Image formatting attributes (height, width, and align) are deprecated in favour of CSS.

SPECIALTY MARKUP

HTML / XHTML includes several specialty tags. These are used to describe special purpose text. They have default styling, but of course the styles can be modified with CSS.

<quote>

The quote tag is intended to display a single line quote:

Quote is an inline tag. If you need a block level quote, use <blockquote>.

<pre>

The <pre> tag is used for pre-formatted text. It is sometimes used for code listings or ASCII art because it preserves carriage returns. Pre-formatted text is usually displayed in a fixed-width font.

<code>

The code format is used to manage pre-formatted text, especially code listings. It is very similar to pre.

<blockquote>

This tag is used to mark multi-line quotes. Frequently it is set off with special fonts and indentation through CSS. It is a block-level tag.

<span>

The span tag is a vanilla inline tag. It has no particular formatting of its own. It is intended to be used with a class or ID when you want to apply style to an inline chunk of code.

The em tag is used for standard emphasis. By default, <em> italicizes text, but you can use CSS to make any other type of emphasis you wish.

<strong>

This tag represents strong emphasis. By default, it is bold, but you can modify the formatting with CSS.

Forms are the standard user input mechanism in HTML / XHTML. You will need another language like JavaScript or PHP to read the contents of the form elements and act upon them.

Form Structure

A number of tags are used to describe the structure of the form. Begin by looking over a basic form:

The <form></form> pair describes the form. In XHTML strict, you must indicate the form's action property. This is typically the server-side program that will read the form. If there is no such program, you can set the action to null ("") The method attribute is used to determine whether the data is sent through the get or post mechanism.

Most form elements are inline tags, and must be encased in a block element. The fieldset is designed exactly for this purpose. Its default appearance draws a box around the form. You can have multiple fieldsets inside a single form.

You can add a legend inside a fieldset. This describes the purpose of the fieldset.

A label is a special inline element that describes a particular field. A label can be paired with an input element by putting that element's ID in the label's for attribute.

The input element is a general purpose inline element. It is meant to be used inside a form, and it is the basis for several types of more specific input. The subtype is indicated by the type attribute. Input elements usually include an id attribute (used for CSS and JavaScript identification) and / or a name attribute (used in server-side programming.) The same element can have both a name and an id.

This element allows a single line of text input:

Passwords display just like textboxes, except rather than showing the text as it is typed, an asterisk appears for each letter. Note that the data is not encoded in any meaningful way. Typing text into a password field is still entirely unsecure.

Radio Button

Radio buttons are used in a group. Only one element of a radio group can be selected at a time. Give all members of a radio group the same name value to indicate they are part of a group.

Attaching a label to a radio button means the user can activate the button by clicking on the corresponding label. For best results, use the selected attribute to force one radio button to be the default.

Checkboxes are much like radio buttons, but they are independent. Like radio buttons, they can be associated with a label.

Hidden fields hold data that is not visible to the user (although it is still visible in the code) It is primarily used to preserve state in server-side programs.

Note that the data is still not protected in any meaningful way.

Buttons are used to signal user input. Buttons can be created through the input tag:

This will create a button with the caption "launch the missiles." When the button is clicked, the page will attempt to run a JavaScript function called "launchMissiles()" Standard buttons are usually used with JavaScript code on the client. The same button can also be created with this alternate format:

This second form is preferred because buttons often require different CSS styles than other input elements. This second form also allows an <img> tag to be placed inside the button, making the image act as the button.

The reset button automatically resets all elements in its form to their default values. It doesn't require any other attributes.

Select / option

Drop-down lists can be created through the select / option mechanism. The select tag creates the overall structure, which is populated by option elements.

The select has an id (for client-side code) or name (for serverside code) identifier. It contains a number of options. Each option has a value which will be returned to the program. The text between <option> and </option> is the value displayed to the user. In some cases (as in this example) the value displayed to the user is not the same as the value used by programs.

Multiple Selections

You can also create a multi-line selection with the select and option tags:

DEPRECATED FORMATTING TAGS

Certain tags common in older forms of HTML are no longer recommended as CSS provides much better alternatives.

The font tag was used to set font color, family (typeface) and size. Numerous CSS attributes replace this capability with much more flexible alternatives. See the CSS refcard for details.

I (italics)

HTML code should indicate the level of emphasis rather than the particular stylistic implications. Italicizing should be done through CSS. The <em> tag represents emphasized text. It produces italic output unless the style is changed to something else. The <i> tag is no longer necessary and is not recommended. Add font-style: italic to the style of any element that should be italicized.

Like italics, boldfacing is considered a style consideration. Use the <strong> tag to denote any text that should be strongly emphasized. By default, this will result in boldfacing the enclosed text. You can add bold emphasis to any style with the font-weight: bold attribute in CSS.

DEPRECATED TECHNIQUES

In addition to the deprecated tags, there are also techniques which were once common in HTML that are no longer recommended.

Frames have been used as a layout mechanism and as a technique for keeping one part of the page static while dynamically loading other parts of the page in separate frames. Use of frames has proven to cause major usability problems. Layout is better handled through CSS techniques, and dynamic page generation is frequently performed through server-side manipulation or AJAX.

Table-based design

Before CSS became widespread, HTML did not have adequate page formatting support. Clever designers used tables to provide an adequate form of page layout. CSS provides a much more flexible and powerful form of layout than tables, and keeps the HTML code largely separated from the styling markup.

HTML ENTITIES

Sometimes you need to display a special character in a web page. HTML has a set of special characters for exactly this purpose. Each of these entities begins with the ampersand(&) followed by a code and a semicolon.

Non-breaking space   Adds white space
< Used to display HTML code or mathematics

HTML 5 / CSS3 PREVIEW

New technologies are on the horizon. Firefox 3.5 now has support for significant new HTML 5 features, and CSS 3 is not far behind. While the following should still be considered experimental, they are likely to become very important tools in the next few years. Firefox 3.5, Safari 4 (and a few other recent browsers) support the following new features:

Audio and video tags

Finally the browsers have direct support for audio and video without plugin technology. These tags work much like the img tag.

The HTML 5 standard currently supports Ogg Theora video, Ogg Vorbis audio, and wav audio. The Ogg formats are opensource alternatives to proprietary formats, and plenty of free tools convert from more standard video formats to Ogg. The autoplay option causes the element to play automatically. The controls element places controls directly into the page.

The code between the beginning and ending tag will execute if the browser cannot process the audio or video tag. You can place alternate code here for embedding alternate versions (Flash, for example)

The canvas tag offers a region of the page that can be drawn upon (usually with Javascript.) This creates the possibility of real interactive graphics without requiring plugins like Flash.

This is actually a CSS improvement, but it's much needed. It allows you to define a font-face in CSS and include a ttf font file from the server. You can then use this font face in your ordinary CSS and use the downloaded font. If this becomes a standard, we will finally have access to reliable downloadable fonts on the web, which will usher in web typography at long last.

An Introduction to HTML for Beginners

Joan Ayebola

HTML, which stands for HyperText Markup Language, serves as the foundation of web development. It enables you to create interactive web pages, structure content, and effectively communicate your message.

In this guide, we'll explore HTML comprehensively, addressing essential questions to provide a strong foundation for budding web developers.

The Crucial Role of HTML in Web Development

HTML plays an essential role in web development as it defines the structure and content of web pages. It serves as the backbone upon which websites are built.

HTML accomplishes this by utilizing a system of tags and elements, each serving a unique purpose.

How Do I Write HTML Code?

Writing HTML code is a matter of understanding HTML tags.

Tags are enclosed within angle brackets, each comprising an opening and closing part. They function as building blocks that define the structure of your web page.

Think of them as the bricks and mortar of web development. Understanding their roles is essential for web development.

How to Create a Website Using HTML?

Creating a website using HTML involves several key steps. Let's go over them in the following sections.

Website Planning

Before you start coding, take time to plan your website thoroughly.

Identify your target audience, outline the content and structure of your site and design a layout that aligns with your goals.

Keep in mind that the visual design can be enhanced with CSS (Cascading Style Sheets), a topic we'll explore later in your web development journey.

Writing HTML Code

Open a text editor, such as Visual Studio Code or Sublime Text, and begin writing HTML code.

Start with the basic structure, including <!DOCTYPE html> , <html> </html> , <head> </head> , and <body> </body> .

Then, populate the body with your content.

Saving as .html

Save your HTML files with a .html extension to indicate that they are web pages. Proper file naming is essential for organizing your project.

Local Testing

To see how your website looks and functions, open your HTML files in a web browser. This local testing phase allows you to fine-tune your design and layout.

Hosting and Publishing

For your website to be accessible on the internet, you'll need web hosting services. Various providers offer hosting, and you'll typically obtain a domain name (for example, www.yourwebsite.com) to point to your hosted site.

How to Start HTML Code?

Starting HTML code is straightforward. Let's go over each step in the following sections.

Text Editor Selection

Choose a text editor that suits your needs. Popular options include Visual Studio Code, Sublime Text, and Atom. These editors offer features like syntax highlighting and autocompletion tailored to web development.

HTML5 Declaration

Initiate your HTML document with <!DOCTYPE html> . This declaration signifies the use of HTML5, the latest HTML standard.

Building the Structure

Inside the <html> </html> tags, create your HTML structure.

The <head> </head> section contains metadata, including the page title, and the <body> </body> section houses the visible content of your web page.

Adding Metadata

Within the <head> </head> section, utilize the <meta> tag to specify the character encoding, ensuring proper rendering.

How Do I Run HTML Code Step by Step?

Executing HTML code is straightforward, thanks to modern web browsers. Here's a step-by-step guide:

Save Your HTML File

Ensure that your HTML file is saved with a .html extension. This signals to your computer that it's an HTML document.

Double-Click to Open

Double-click the HTML file, and your default web browser will automatically open it. Your browser renders the HTML, displaying your web page.

Alternative Browsers

If you prefer a specific web browser, you can right-click the HTML file and choose "Open with" to select your preferred browser.

Inspect and Debug

Modern web browsers come equipped with built-in developer tools that enable you to inspect and debug your HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.

Access these tools by right-clicking on your web page and selecting "Inspect" or by pressing F12 or Ctrl+Shift+I (Windows) or Cmd+Option+I (Mac).

How Do You Write "Hello" in HTML?

Displaying "Hello" on a web page is straightforward. You can use the <h1> tag to create a top-level heading, as demonstrated earlier.

HTML offers multiple ways to present "Hello." For instance:

Or you can use a paragraph tag:

Both options result in "Hello!" being displayed on your web page. The choice depends on the context and your styling preferences.

It's worth noting that HTML has six levels of headings, ranging from <h1> (the highest) to <h6> (the lowest). Headings are used to structure content hierarchically, with <h1> representing the main heading and <h6> representing subheadings.

How to Create an HTML File with an Example?

Creating an HTML file is your gateway to web development. Here's an expanded step-by-step guide:

Choose a Text Editor

Select a text editor that suits your workflow and preferences. Modern editors offer features like syntax highlighting and autocompletion, enhancing your coding experience.

Structure Your HTML

Begin your HTML document with <!DOCTYPE html> , followed by <html> </html> tags to enclose your content. Inside the <head> </head> section, set metadata, such as the page title and character encoding, using the <meta> tag.

Add Content

Within the <body> </body> section, insert your content. Experiment with various HTML tags to format your content, including headings, paragraphs, lists, links, and images.

Save with .html Extension

Save your file with a .html extension. This naming convention ensures that your computer recognizes it as an HTML document.

Preview Locally

Double-click the HTML file to open it in your web browser. This provides an instant preview of your webpage, allowing you to see how it appears to your audience.

Introducing CSS for Styling

While HTML defines the structure of your web page, CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) is used for styling. You can link an external CSS file to your HTML to control the design and layout of your webpage. For example:

This separation of content (HTML) and presentation (CSS) is a fundamental practice in web development.

How Do You Write a Sentence in HTML?

To create a sentence in HTML, you can employ the <p> (paragraph) tag, as mentioned earlier. However, HTML offers flexibility, allowing you to use other inline tags for shorter text snippets. Here's an example:

Alternatively, for shorter text, you can use the <span> tag:

The <p> tag is typically used for paragraphs, while the <span> tag is more versatile and is often used for inline elements within a sentence or paragraph. Choose the tag that suits the context of your content.

Additional HTML Elements to Explore

While we've covered the basics, HTML offers a plethora of elements and attributes for creating rich and interactive web experiences. Here are some additional HTML elements you can explore:

HTML provides elements like <form> , <input> and <button> to create user-friendly forms for collecting data.

You can use <table> , <tr> , <td> and other related tags to structure tabular data.

Embed images, audio, and video using <img> , <audio> , and <video> tags.

Links and Anchors

Create hyperlinks using the <a> tag to connect web pages and external resources.

Use <ul> for unordered lists, <ol> for ordered lists and <li> for list items.

Semantic Tags

HTML5 introduced semantic elements like <header> , <nav> , <section> , <article> and <footer> to enhance the structure and accessibility of web pages.

Further refine your document with meta tags, including those for specifying character encoding, viewport settings, and author information.

In closing, HTML is your gateway to web development. It provides the foundation upon which you can build stunning web experiences and effectively communicate with your audience.

Whether you're embarking on creating a personal blog, launching an e-commerce site, or showcasing your portfolio, HTML forms the foundation of your online presence.

As you progress in web development, remember that HTML is just the beginning of your journey. Complement your HTML skills with CSS for styling and JavaScript for interactivity. This approach empowers you to create dynamic and engaging websites that captivate the attention of your audience.

In your pursuit of web development excellence, embrace the challenges and endless possibilities presented by HTML and the ever-evolving field of web technologies. Stay curious, never stop learning, and remain current with the latest standards and best practices. Connect with me on Twitter .
