modern web dev is not empowering
so many things if you try to look up guides for beginners try to tell you about frameworks and optimizing for phones and static site generators and whatever instead of *just telling you how to put formatted text on a screen.*
Setting up a web server is still rather difficult for a novice but simply writing the "meat" of a static website (HTML, perhaps some rudimentary CSS) should not be. And to be honest it still isn't, but good luck finding guides that start with the basics when most of the "guides" are aimed at 9-5 salesforce employees and other soulless husks (not to mention people without any other choice) -

In the German Sphere there is selfhtml since 1995 which explains the basics very well. Do not know if there is something equivalent in english.

@monkee i have a solid foundation in this stuff from long ago. nowadays i just go off the old specs
@wyatt@soc.megatokyo.moe
Long time ago i learned with selfhtml
Back in the day: https://www.w3schools.com/ also was a very good source for the bascis. So i think that is something one can recommend to beginners.
