HTML is an easy language to start with if you want to get into software design or development.

You can create a very simple webpage using only notepad. Let me show you how.

First, open up notepad or any text editor and copy the contents below into the file.

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
    <head>
        <title>Simple webpage</title>
    </head>
    <body>
        <h1>Simple Webpage</h1>
        <p>Hello World!</p>
    </body>    
</html>

Next, save the file as webpage.html. Make sure to use extension html and not txt.

Navigate to the location that the file was saved and double click the file.

Your default browser will open with the contents that we coded into the html file.
