If you don't know any coding whatsoever, you should start. Most people don't even have a clue as to what HTML is. They couldn't even guess within the ball park of what HTML actually is. I have to admit, I was one of those people. I'm a little embarrassed, but it just goes to show you how far people can go and come from with concerted effort and motivation to learn something and achieve new skills.
What is HTML? I'll try to explain it through an example. It's just a way to tell the browser what the website is supposed to look like and how it is supposed to be structured. So for example, if you write <strong>, that is just telling the browser that the words within that little tag is supposed to be bold. If you write <br>, you saying to the browser, hey, browser, how's it going? Could you please skip a line before you put some more content?
That's really it, structure and general look. If you want to make a website look nice, then that's where CSS comes in. You really need to know CSS if you want to make a website look nice at all. So where can you get started? Well, start with W3schools or Codecademy and you can move on after that. If you are willing to put in two weeks of concerted effort, or even less, you should have a really good concept of what HTML is. From there, you can learn new languages and gain new skills that are really valued in the marketplace at the moment. Go forth, young man or woman!
