Being old school, I typically create a web site in Notepad. Yes, Notepad. Sometimes Notepad++. I usually code the content in HTML, then code the CSS (again, in Notepad). Then I tweak the CSS to make the site look decent. I add the graphics last. Almost never use JavaScript.

Influenced by yours and your contemporaries work, I would teach my “web design” students to write their websites with pen & paper first. Not draw, but write semantically. Then describe to me what it was. That’s how I’d force content-first, semantic HTML and CSS.

Indeed my friend. And so much more than that... infrastructure, security, #a11y global, scalable systems including social ones. Evolution was the idea. But "we are Devo."
