HTML has many colors, fonts, and sizes for the document. A way to start off with HTML could be making a website about yourself!
Here is a video to help get a better understanding on HTML and the position is holds in the real world.
This is an example of a web page. I first made this last year over the summer when I had just finished a web page class during the school year. This image clearly shows the fonts, image, and at the bottom I also added a video I found on YouTube of sounds I find soothing. With the knowledge I have gained from programming in other languages, I can enhance this page more if I wanted to!
