in mspl •  7 years ago 

Congratulations to @h0bby1. In addition to your post earning $150 You're also getting an additional 50 SBD from me!!! (You didn't put the post in the comments, so I missed the resteem window otherwise I would have done that too!)

Here's the winning post on the basics of Linux!

Time to archive

I'm going to send this link off to steemshelves through @rhondak and you're officially in the MSPL!!!

Next Contest: HTML

Let's keep this baby rolling! We're trying to help people become developers and provide some posts that will encourage them. Before we get to actually coding on the block chain let's get some basic programming stuff in the library. I'm running a contest to write about coding so we can build a library about it (everything gets archived at steemshelves.com). The best post will get 50 SBD from me, archived in the library, resteemed, and probably some fat post rewards on it's own.

What we're looking for here is for you to make a post that covers some of the basics of writing in HTML. It's eventually meant to help people build and design applications for the Steemit blockchain, so while you're writing please keep that in mind.

You can use @h0bby1's guide as a starting point. I'd ask that you consider adding a video as well. But just walk us through HTML.

If you write a post, tag it with MSPL, and link it in the comments in here. I'll resteem it, so even if you don't win the contest you'll get some sweet exposure (and I have some good whales who would be happy to support someone on a topic like this that follow me).

So, HMTL basics, write like you're talking to a total noob (more advanced stuff later), tell us where HTML is a good fit, and walk us through the some of the starting commands, link the post you make in the comments below, and you have a good shot at sitting 50 SBD + post rewards richer.

Good Luck!

Sort Order:  

I feel it would be better to talk about HTML, CSS and Javascript first. As neither of these really stands alone any more. Without that, you sort of ... throw out everything you learned about HTML to start using CSS.

I think that it will be in the next contests. We have to start somewhere. First structure and content, then presentation and finally dynamic elements.

So... You're saying you're going to write an intro!

I am working on many writings.
I have worked many of these things, such as this specific topic, out in my head.
But that was for HTML 3

Anyway, if I do, I would like a much better idea of where to start and end with HTML 5.
As, if I had all the time in the world, what I wrote would be a book.

I made introduction to html css and js, jquery and http protocol already.

https://steemit.com/programming/@h0bby1/web-application-programming-with-php-and-javascript-using-jquery

I think the post on html base structure, html4/5 + xhtml and basics of css will be ready tomorrow.

It will skip javascript for the moment just define the broad standard and commons tags and html document and ressources structuring.

I will see how that goes, can always answer question in comments, or complete latter or in another post to get more into javascript and jquery and advanced html5 features.

Nice !

I'll try to make a more complete post on html.

One thing i found bothering is it seems hard to integrate html code into the steemit post, because the parser will strip the html tags, if anyone know how to integrate html code into the markup that would be nice.

For the moment i use html entities like & lt ; and & gt ; for the '<' and '>' but even with this, need to add a space after '& lt ; ' otherwise its still stripped.

If there is no way ill use screenshots :p

Maybe you can make use of code block formatting. See https://github.com/adam-p/markdown-here/wiki/Markdown-Cheatsheet#code
