Master HTML Code Formatting and Clean Structure
Write Code That Speaks to Humans and Machines Alike

In the digital architecture of the web, the difference between a functional site and a professional masterpiece lies in the invisible structure of the code. We often focus on what the user sees, but at The Transcendent, we recognize that the quality of your HTML file determines the longevity and maintainability of your project. This chapter explores the nuances of code organization, from the browser's handling of whitespace to the historical evolution of tag casing.#transcendent

01:11الحين من المكان لي دائمًا
01:15تقفيه إلي عن أكثر أصدام
01:18هنا نشعر بإمكان هذه الأصدام
01:21with additional gaps among the phrases,
01:23yet the browser will fully neglect them.
01:25A second technique that coders frequently employ
01:28to make code easier to comprehend
01:30involves recording it down,
01:32which involves adding remarks to the code
01:34to provide clarity on the actions being performed.
01:37In HTML, we add remarks to code
01:40by keying an open angle bracket,
01:42an exclamation point, then two dashes.
01:45All the content that follows is not acknowledged
01:48or taken into consideration by the web browser.
01:50In order to halt the remark,
01:52we simply conclude it by adding two dashes
01:55and then closing the bracket together.
01:57Numerous text editors are designed to automatically dim,
02:00darken, or blur any identified code segments or notes,
02:04such as the popular code pen editor,
02:06which serves as a significant advantage and assistance.
02:10This way, we are not puzzled when a feature is not functioning.
02:14We can notice that it is just noted out.
02:16We'll now address uppercase versus lowercase letters.
02:20When HTML was just created,
02:22people often capitalized their HTML elements.
02:25Over the years, as HTML matured,
02:28the web community shifted its view,
02:30thinking it is far superior to compose all elements
02:33using lowercase letters.
02:35However, the reality is this does not truly matter.
02:39We uncover an immense number of older websites accessible online,
02:44all written utilizing all capitalized HTML,
02:47while simultaneously discovering billions of current websites
02:50that rigorously avoid utilizing capitalized HTML
02:53throughout their design and construction.
02:56Therefore, the browsers will fully accommodate whichever method that we use.
03:00With that said, most everyone now writes everything in lowercase letters.
03:06It is simply or merely the established practice that is currently followed today.
03:11The use of all caps can, indeed,
03:13have a considerable and significant impact on our eyesight
03:16and can cause strain to our eyes over time.
03:19We may have observed that a few of the elements are quite brief,
03:23looking more like small snippets of information rather than comprehensive entities like
03:28P for a paragraph, B for bold text, or I for italic.
03:34In contrast, others can be much longer,
03:37especially newer ones like article or video.
03:40These longer tags are complete words in English.
03:43For instance, the tag is video, not simply v or vid.
03:48Similarly, we write section, not ssc, footer, not foot, and block quote, not just bq.
03:57So, what could be the reason behind this difference?
04:00And why is there a difference?
04:02So, HTML was primarily conceived and introduced during the late 1980s
04:08and the early 1990s this period of time,
04:11when tech experts were focused on saving every last bit and byte.
04:15Computer machines had just 1 MB of RAM and a mere 20 MB of disk space,
04:20so every letter added to the overall file size.
04:24As HTML evolved, memory capabilities within systems improved significantly.
04:29It became increasingly less crucial to save occasional letters here and there.
04:34And it is notably more crucial to ensure that the code is straightforward and easily understandable.
04:41So, these newer contemporary elements make full usage of words.
04:45This is immensely easier for individuals,
04:48particularly for those who possess remarkable abilities to communicate effectively in the English language.
04:54A final point to address regarding the way HTML is written.
04:58Should we use a closing tag or not?
05:01We've reviewed quite a few amount of time to examine and assess a variety of elements already.
05:06Almost all of them arrive at the destination in pairs, accompanied by an opening and a closing tag.
05:13The modern HTML elements consistently incorporate both an opening and a closing tag.
05:18Like the video element, which we will discuss later on.
05:21At times, we occasionally place no elements between the initial start and the concluding and tagging.
05:29But for a few of the everlasting elements, there is in no way an identifiable sheltered dome or dissonable niche in any respect.
05:37Such as image, which we will explore soon.
05:41These elements were created in the mid-90s.
05:44At that time, the creators thought,
05:46Wouldn't it be simpler and more efficient to leave out the closing tag if it isn't necessary?
05:51And why add one?
05:53Later, the mindset changed and the common practice shifted to placing a slash mark at the end of any element that did not have a matching and closing tag.
06:03The concept is that the element can both open and close all at once.
06:08For a long time, everyone insisted that we must use the slash.
06:12However, towards around the year 2010, people began to take a more laid-back attitude towards this rule.
06:18Frankly, at this time, we are uncertain if a majority of developers actually utilize a closing slash.
06:25By now, the fact that it actually doesn't make a significant difference is widely recognized.
06:31Web browsers are designed to accommodate a wide range of options for organizing and presenting our code.
06:37It is entirely at our discretion and with our team's guidance as to how we would like to proceed in making decisions and executing the plan.
