Ask HN: Best way to learn HTML and CSS for web design?
I run a group with almost 600 JavaScript learners.  With this many people, we've been through the vast majority of self-study resources.  My goto recommendation for learning HTML, CSS, & JavaScript is <a href="http://www.freecodecamp.com/" rel="nofollow">http://www.freecodecamp.com/</a> This has consistently had the best results for our learners!<p>It (a) assumes no knowledge coming in, (b) provides a linear progression from no knowledge to a portfolio of web applications, (c) lets you move as fast or slow as you want, (d) lets you skip lessons and topics you're already familiar with, and (e) has phenomenal online support.  (EDIT: and it's free)<p>Once your friend has the fundamentals, I'd also suggest checking out <a href="http://flukeout.github.io/" rel="nofollow">http://flukeout.github.io/</a> and <a href="http://flexboxfroggy.com/" rel="nofollow">http://flexboxfroggy.com/</a> . They're fun little games to introduce lots of css and flexbox features.
