It is very easy to setup your HTML environment on your most preferred platform so if you have a Linux, Mac, Windows or any other Operating System (OS) it will not be a problem writing HTML codes so therefore the only requirements are; Working computers with a browser to test your pages.

Let us look at our first example of html, we will make our browser print out Hello World.

First move your mouse across your desktop and right click on any empty space on your screen > move down to New > click Folder. This will create a new folder, name this folder HTML.

Next we create a our HTML in our new HTML folder by opening any text editor, for this tutorial i will be using windows so i will use my Notepad. Now In your text editor write Hello World.

move your mouse to the top left of your window, click File > click Save As or you can use a shortcut key CTRL+S > direct the save wizard to where you want to save what you've written, direct it to the Folder you created as HTML > click All Files

name it Hello World.html > Save
