This module sets the stage, getting you used to important concepts and syntax such as looking at applying HTML to text, how to create hyperlinks, and how to use HTML to structure a web page. Our HTML Learning Area features multiple modules that teach HTML from the ground up - no previous knowledge required. The articles below can help you learn more about HTML. For example, the tag can be written as, , or in any other way. That is, it can be written in uppercase, lowercase, or a mixture. The name of an element inside a tag is case insensitive. HTML markup includes special "elements" such as, ,, ,, ,, ,, ,, ,, ,, ,, ,, ,, ,, and many others.Īn HTML element is set off from other text in a document by "tags", which consist of the element name surrounded by " ". HTML uses "markup" to annotate text, images, and other content for display in a Web browser. By uploading content to the Internet and linking it to pages created by other people, you become an active participant in the World Wide Web. Links are a fundamental aspect of the Web. "Hypertext" refers to links that connect web pages to one another, either within a single website or between websites. Other technologies besides HTML are generally used to describe a web page's appearance/presentation ( CSS) or functionality/behavior ( JavaScript).

#Phpstorm minify css code
However, in the Project Tree, the file with the minified code is shown under the source CSS file which is displayed as a node. The location of this generated file is defined in the Output paths to refresh field of the New Watcher dialog. The generated minified code is stored in a separate file with the name of the source CSS file and the extension min.css. You can specify other events that invoke CSSO. To minify your code automatically, you need to configure a CSSO File Watcher which will track changes to your files and run CSSO.īy default, minification starts as soon as a CSS file in the File Watcher's scope is changed and saved. If you're not using build tools, you can use stand-alone tools, such as CSSO or cssnano. Most often compression is done as a step in your build process, with tools like webpack. At the production stage, they only increase the size of code to be transferred. During development and debugging, these characters make code easier to read. Minification or compression means removing all unnecessary characters, such as spaces, new lines, comments, without changing the functionality of the source code.
