Challenge - Intermediate capstone

HTML course · Intermediate · Lesson 67/67

Write a docs site that combines all intermediate topics.

Bring the intermediate level together

This documentation site combines every intermediate topic. It has a full <!DOCTYPE html> skeleton, semantic landmarks (<header>, <nav>, <main>, <aside>, <footer>), advanced text tags, and an accessible table.

A skip link moves keyboard users straight to the main content. The form section includes <fieldset>, <legend>, <label for> and validation attributes.

Exercise Write a documentation site

Write a complete documentation site. Include <!DOCTYPE html>, <html> with lang, and a <head> with charset/viewport/<title>. In the body add a skip link (targeting the id on main) and <header>+<nav>, <main>, <aside>, <footer>. Inside <main> put an <article> with an <h2> and a <pre><code> block, plus a <table> with <caption> and a scoped <th>. Inside <aside> put a form with <fieldset>+<legend>, <label for>↔id, required and pattern.
