For example: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Learn/HTML https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/Learn/HTML
But really, if you want to learn html+CSS, you need to spend a bunch of time just making layouts if you want to get a mental model into your head. It is just too finicky to reason about otherwise
- WorldWideWayne 12y agoI prefer W3Schools over MDN since W3Schools gets right to the point. MDN would rather have you read three paragraphs on the history of the feature you're trying to use, but I usually don't need a full history on my reference cards.
- m000z0rz 12y agoI think you nailed it here. I started learning SQL years ago from W3Schools, and it was great because it got right to the point. I can't imagine trying to get a handle on something completely new by starting with full reference material. Seems that people hate W3Schools for not being something it isn't supposed be?
- lloeki 12y agoMDN contains both guides[1] and reference documentation[0] (which I happen to have read some minutes ago). While I have seen the occasional digression on a particular history point that explains some particular design choice, I found references to be often concise, complete, to the point, and correct (even across browsers, providing details if need be). BTW w3schools apparently contains squat about MutationObserver. [0]: https://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Web/API/MutationObserver https://developer.mozilla.org/en/docs/Web/API/MutationObserv...
