Congratulations!

Congratulations, you've completed the HTML course! You've built a whole web page on your own, from the document type declaration all the way to a form.

So far, your page lives only in the editor. To keep it, save it as a file on your computer:

1. Take the code you copied in the previous exercise (or copy the example in the editor here).
2. Open a plain text editor, such as Notepad on Windows or TextEdit on a Mac, or a code editor such as Visual Studio Code. In TextEdit, first switch the document to plain text (Format → Make Plain Text).
3. Paste the code and save the file as index.html.
4. Double-click the saved file, and the page opens in your web browser.

Watch out for images: an image with an address like /learn/html/cats.webp won't appear on your computer, because that address only works on our website. Use the full address of the image starting with https:// (our cats are at https://www.startcoder.com/learn/html/cats.webp), or save the image into the same folder as index.html and write just its file name, for example src="cats.webp".

Your page works, but it still looks plain: black text on a white background. HTML describes what is on the page; how it looks (colors, fonts, layout) is the job of CSS. In the CSS course, you'll learn to style your page so it looks exactly the way you want.
