Two founders talk about learning HTML from beginner books and tools like Dreamweaver, then landing their first web design jobs. They trace how they went from following tutorials to actually getting paid to build websites.
I bought a HTML for Dummies book and literally went page by page and just typed out all the code and learned how to code HTML site back then.
Did you?
Shortly after that, I started getting jobs.
That's how I started. MAN On On Dreamweaver. I used to. Or, excuse me, GeoCities. I'd make websites for the bands at my high school. Did you ever use Dreamweaver? I don't know.
That's like an old Dreamweaver. Yes. Before that, it was home site. I think it was called a layer home site. It's a text editor, basically, and you could save your own snippets. Dreamweaver was more drag and drop, and then it was Microsoft front page. Yeah, I started doing that, and I literally started knocking on doors at businesses in these industrial parks and commercial parks.
