open build/index.html- Web pages are HTML files rendered in a browser.
- HTML is made up of building blocks that can be rendered by the browser, e.g.
<body>...</body>. - These building blocks will have some default formatting when rendered (font, size, position, etc.)
- CSS is used to customise this formatting.
- You're quite limited in what you can do in just HTML. e.g. you can't factorize out common parts of a web page, to be used across multiple pages of a website (e.g. a site-wide header and footer).
- One way of doing this is with PHP. In PHP you can write HTML, but also with extra features like templates.
- A web server can interpret PHP files to produce HTML, but your browser can't (and nor can github pages, because it only supports static sites).
- You can either view .php files in you browser by installing php locally and:
- Starting a local php server,
php -S localhost:port -t your_folder/ - Compiling the php into html:
php file.php > file.html
- Starting a local php server,
- An alternative is to use a templating framework like
