Very cute! I did something similar with my dad when I was a kid. First basic HTML then Dreamweaver. A couple years down the road and I’m working at a SaaS company. Beware.

I remember as a kid (like at 13 or 14) using BBEdit then Adobe PageMill

7 years old? Don't force kids If you need your kid to be kid. Hand coding HTML is just trash than collecting leaves & beautify the kindergarden book. I've no memory for last 10+ years other than computer and programming. All I've pretty beautiful memory from childhood.

HTML is fine to lean to code by hand.

Tags can provide clear starts and ends for beginners, as well as concepts of nesting.

Folks who learned to code HTML using a wysiwyg html editor may be able to describe how it helped them learn.

Earlier quoted context omitted.

Is this code review of HTML written by a 7 year old too hackernews, or just hackernews enough? Who can tell!

When the Trump assassination attempt happened last week and every single post on here was still about computers that's when I realized this place is different

There do seem to be posts.

I’m not sure of the activity level of HN at the time it occurred.

That's why I come here instead of other places.

Exactly as I would do it if I were a 7yo. Speak what you will about the virtues of CSS and semantic markup, these things get in the way of having fun. And can be learned later.

On the contrary, CSS is where the fun starts.

Funny how?
