HTML Editor
Write HTML Using Notepad or TextEdit
HTML can be edited by using professional HTML editors like:
- Microsoft WebMatrix
- Sublime Text
- Adobe Dreamweaver
However, for learning HTML we recommend a text editor like Notepad (PC) or TextEdit (Mac).
We believe using a simple text editor is a good way to learn HTML.
Follow the 4 steps below to create your first web page with Notepad.
Step 1: Open Notepad
- To open Notepad in Windows 7 or earlier:
- Click Start (bottom left on your screen). Click All Programs. Click Accessories. Click Notepad.
- To open Notepad in Windows 8 or later:
- Open the Start Screen (the window symbol at the bottom left on your screen). Type Notepad.
Step 2: Write Some HTML
Write or copy some HTML into Notepad.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<h1>My First Heading</h1>
<p>My first paragraph.</p>
</body>
</html>
Step 3: Save the HTML Page
- Save the file on your computer.
- Select File > Save as in the Notepad menu.
- Name the file "index.html" or any other name ending with html or htm.
- UTF-8 is the preferred encoding for HTML files.
- ANSI encoding covers US and Western European characters only.
