Reading Assignment

Semantic HTML

HTML always (and only) provides structure and content, never appearance

• Semantic Markup: <tags> describe what the content within is
• Tags are surrounded by angle brackets <>
• Tags must be closed
  • Self Closing: <img />
  • Surrounding Content: <span>Words</span>
• Tags can have attributes to describe in more detail
  • <img height="300" />

Javascript Conditionals

Allow us to make decisions in our code and do different things based on whether something is true or false.

“IF it is raining, THEN put on a raincoat, OTHERWISE just go out”

var wearingCoat = '';
if(isRaining === true) {
  wearingCoat = "yes";
}
else {
  wearingCoat = "nope!";
}
