Step 1: Set Up

Open a text editor like Visual Studio Code or Sublime Text on your computer: These programs will allow you to write the code for your website.

Step 2: HTML

Create a new HTML file and save it with a .html extension: This file will serve as the structure for your website's content.

Set up the basic structure of the HTML document: Inside the HTML file, include essential elements such as <!DOCTYPE html>, <html>, <head>, and <body> tags.

Add content to your webpage: Between the opening <body> and closing </body> tags, add elements like headings, paragraphs, images, and links to create the content of your webpage.

Step 3: CSS

Create a new CSS file and save it with a .css extension: This file will contain the styling rules for your webpage.

Write CSS styles to customize the appearance of your webpage: Target HTML elements, classes, and IDs to apply styles such as fonts, colors, margins, and padding to different parts of your webpage.

Link the CSS file to your HTML document: Inside the <head> section of your HTML file, add a <link> tag to connect the CSS file, ensuring that the styles you've written are applied to your webpage.

Step 4: Preview

Preview your webpage in a web browser: Open the HTML file in a web browser to see how your webpage looks and ensure that the HTML structure and CSS styles are rendering correctly.
