lea_hazelSo I'm watching the introductory HTML 5 videos on Code School (they helpfully sent me a "hall pass" to watch paid videos for free for a limited time). And I can't escape the feeling that what's being taught here is definitely something other than coding, but I can't put my finger on what. Is it design? Not exactly.
The elements covered are things like subtitles and pull quotes, in addition to web design elements like logos and menus. I feel like it's almost a crash intro to composition. Deciding which content elements to group together is, after all, not dissimilar from deciding where to break passage in a well-written essay. And titling is basically a SAT problem.
It's kind of strange
