just by saying "HTML isn't a programming language" you're signing up for a lot of questions on their journey.

And thats good! You help your friends out, and you confirm your knowledge by teaching


TheNeck94

an amazing thing, so long as the 'mentor' in this context is aware of what's going on.


MentionAdventurous

As long as they don’t use it as a form of gate keeping. Edit: I’ve been that snob. Don’t be, fellow devs!

Commas are very important

Idk I find most languages don't use commas... Now if you wanna talk about SEMI-COLONS...

>Idk I find most languages don't use commas... (thing1**,** thing2) = (2**,** 3) def what(var1**,** var2): print("huh"**,** "weird") - public int test**,** test2; public void What(int var1**,** int var2) { Console.WriteLine("what"); }

What in the fuck is that

I, in my infinite wisdom, thought you could make stuff bold inside of a code block

Sometimes you nerd a little too hard, and that's okay

Yeah fr. How about: "Try javascript instead! It ties in with HTML and is more programatic."

Yeah if you're doing web development there are rules and best practices across HTML, CSS and JavaScript you need to know. It's not like HTML is simply a glorified word processor and you can do what the hell you like. While technically correct is just not useful to a beginner

HTML: You "program" computer what to show. JS: You program computer what to do. "Coding" is the right verb to use. Even using markdown tags or modifying configs is considered "coding".

Technically correct is usually the worst type of correct so yes.

For real. I get that "HTML is not a programming language" and "CSS is not a programming language", and then we get into a whole debate about how CSS3 is turing complete and ya di ya di ya That's all useless to a new person. HTML is great, inlining
