hey y'all! thank you for the views and comments, im very glad i was able to help some people make a site. im happy to answer questions, but i will not answer ones that are literally in the vid lol. (messaging me on other sites wont make me answer it either. 🗿) look through the comments as well just in case someone's asked already! ty!
adding on as someone who made a neocities but NEVER coded before - going through w3schools basic html/css tutorials and doing the practice is crucial if you don't want to be incredibly frustrated. also premade layouts exist if you just want to get started right away and learn as you go!! sadgrl has a really nice customizable one
ik this comment is a year old but thank you for this!!! i tried following this tutorial this at first (w/ limited knowledge of html, idk what i was expecting) and ended up becoming so frustrated that i stopped working on neocities for a few weeks. after i went on w3schools, studied how html worked and experimented with their "tryit editor" (i learn better from hands on approaches as well~) i felt more confident to work on my neocities again and was finally able to go from a white blank screen with black text to a self customized website with a bunch of cool pngs i found that i plastered on like a scrapbook, that i'm still continuing to work on right now lol it's still pretty simple, but i became so excited that i was finally getting somewhere~ now recently i've been learning CSS so that i can understand this tutorial better and make my website look better, so if anyone else comes across this comment and reply i HIGHLY recommend W3schools, it's been a life safer for me, an extreme beginner who just got into making websites a month ago. their explanations are also free and easy to understand for beginners, and theyre also chock full of resources and tutorials for other programs and scripts. they even give mini quizzes at the end of each tutorial! i also recommend going on the website specifically for the "hands-on" feature i mentioned! again, thank you for this recommendation!
As someone who only got to experience myspace and friendster very briefly (and never got to the chance to fully develop my brain to full customize my own) I'm happy this exists X'D
This is hands down the best beginner friendly 'tutorial' I have seen! Unlike most videos on TH-cam where it's 'copy and paste x thing', this clearly explains what the code means in simple English, along with showing what it does. In that sense, it's closer to a lesson, which is much more valuable. It was easy and fun to follow along, and I will be rewatching this multiple times over/recommending it to people who want to learn :D Thank you!
Well, I dream on making a neocities as a page for every Olympic Mascot through the years, but this time with a lot of crude humour, unnecessary edits, incredibly cursed crap, etc. Kinda like a YTP but in the form of a website, if you think about it.
Just a PSA: Make sure you put all the pages in the top folder that you have the project in. Don't make a "pages" folder for it because then you won't be able to link the images.
omg thank uuu so much for this!!! i did a myspace windows 93 profile a couple years back, but the site shut down so i didn't really have much use for basic coding anymore and forgot how to. now i found out abt neocities and this was a great refresher :D
just want to say thank you so much for this video!!! im a very visual learner so watching you explain things as you go and your explanations made the info really click in my brain
Thank you very much for this tutorial! I just started my own neocity site with a template, but I will need to learn how to make blogs. You gave me a solid foundation!
Very nice explanation! I´ve been with Neocities for several years and it´s been a blessing! non stop, and never had a problem with it! it´s always online as well! never offline!
Hello!! Question, how do you actually connect brackets to neocities? When I press live preview it just takes me to a plain base. I rewatched the video a couple of times but I still don"t get how to connect the index to brackets
@@ethancruz7290 yepp, the live preview isnt actually on neocities, its in brackets. you see the code in brackets and then paste that code into neocities
Hey, hoping this isn't too much to ask but as someone who is overwhelmed easily by code of all kinds and having to download multiple things at once, can you also, if you haven't already, make some kind of tutorial on downloading Brackets? i'm sorry to ask this i am just so confused by trying to download this and all the things i have to do to get it to download, i'm just so overwhelmed by all of it and i have no idea what in the world i am doing 😅
@@MistressTammuz well, I'm going through some stuff right now and I'm not sure how much longer I'll have internet for, so I'd rather focus on that for now, but if i work things out I'll make sure to give you a call, thank you! :)
im having a problem on neocities: im trying to log in on my account on neocities again but my email was already taken by me, how do i fix this? i tried contacting neocities but theyre taking a while to respond
sorry if this is a silly question, how did you get all the html lines/tags/etc into brackets? im trying to connect the neocities code to the things i have in brackets but i dont know where to start
I could be wrong, but she was working with her offline files, meaning: these files are on her PC.. not on the actual Neocities site... So.. once you are ready working offline, what you gotta do next is drag your fles into the Neocities Manager window! that´s how you get your site up and running on the net.. Don´t forget that you first webpage must be called index
theres a button to download your entire site, youll have a zip file, then drag all the files in the zip into your website folder on your computer and you can use that in brackets
This tutorial is amazing. Everything is explained really clearly! I also love the background music its the right volume and vibe. Thanks so much, I am trying to make a website for my art portfolio and this was great x
hello, i just started learning how to code html and css to make my own site a few days ago and i have a question: how do you go about learning how to code without getting overwhelmed/what is the best way to learn this at a good steady pace? ive been trying to learn by searching up "how to do x or y thing" for specific things on my site, but the results ive found werent really helping me, or i was having a hard time really understanding them. i dont know where to start with learning code since there are 100s of terms and whatnot ive also tried joining some discord servers for general coding tips but thats been hit or miss, and there were hardly any users willing to really help me out, so right now im really looking for a good way to learn on my own for the most part
everyone learns differently, but my best friend who's never coded anything learned from using the sadgrl layout builder and looking through the code, since everything was commented showing you what every part does. then she went on w3 schools to learn the basics. on w3schools, just click html and start from the first page! if neither of these help, you might need to invest in buying some books or a bootcamp!
hello guys!! does anyone know how to fix this problem i have? when i try to upload the html file to neocities the whole page is white (blank) and i dont know what to do ! :P
U HAVE A TH-cam??? i just wanted a cool neocities video for beginners and found u here….. cool :-) i follow u on tumblr and this video definitely makes things feel approachable
this was helpful but i'm still super confused. Im using the built-in neocities coding thing, (not a file, on the neocities site itself) and none of the code in the video works, and i'm trying to translate most of it, but it doesnt work! could you make another explaining it but in the built-in index? (i also have no idea how to convert the code into a file), please and ty!
I only half-understood HTML (That's on me for abandoning it 🥲), but now I believe that I'll be able to process what I see/create with HTML w/o my brain short circuiting because you explained it in a more simple way. Thank you❤❤❤!!!
how can i link the css file from brackets into html if i want an external css file? ive tried to put in the style section but it doesnt apply, and in the video you show how to do the css in the index file so im not quite sure how to do it TT
Not sure if you still have this problem but if you’re just trying to link an css file to your html file in brackets make sure that the file you’re linking is actually called style.css and that in it you have all your style commands correctly labelled so you can call back to them in the html file instead of needing to write a style tag for every single html element. If you’re having trouble with your website not finding the stylesheet, make sure you have a copy of it in the neocities editor folders or somewhere else where you can link it by hyperlink and not just through your computer files, I know I was trying to figure that one out for a while… if I got your question wrong feel free to elaborate!
most of you social media is not accessible to me because im really young, but is there some way i could talk to you regarding neocities and assets? i want to draw all my stuff out like the box for the main page and other assets, but i'm not sure how to make it the correct size..
just draw at whatever size then make it the background image of whatever box/div its for. if your box is 500px, you can draw the asset at 500px, 1300px, etc etc it doesnt rly matter.
So brackets is just a text/code editor and when you save a file as an html you can view it through the internet, it’s not actually on the internet you’re just opening up a local file. Then you upload it to neocities afterwards
at around 23:00 you are showing how to add different things like width and height. but, after i put one line as the height and go to the next to put the width its not working. im not sure what the problem is
WHY DOES BRACKETS KEEP ASKING ME TO RUN CHROME IN REMOTE DEBUGGING MODE I DONT KNOW WHAT THAT MEANS !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! (please excuse my yelling)
has anyone also gotten the error " element is not permitted as content under (element-permitted-content) "?? I also am struggling with images showing up when i use a url. Am i missing something or not understanding? QwQ?
how do i link brackets to my neocities site? when i try to upload it it says that i cant. Its only for supporters. Am i linking the wrong file??? I literally cant figure it out. I figured out how to make the live previeew work but if i save nothing changes
im almost certain ive answered this but i will answer again anyway. 😅 everything you do in brackets is local, aka on your personal computer. you will have to manually upload everything to neocities when youre Done with the page. saving things on brackets will not show up on urname.neocities.org bc they are not linked. if you're a supporter, you can link brackets to neocities and have it update automatically. i dont have supporter so i must do it by hand. copy paste your local index.html file's text into your site's index.html file. save. refresh.
so about the old version of my website all i really did was copy the old code and paste it to another page and erased the index and shit in favor for the new one
hii! ik this video was made a year ago and idk if u check comments still but is it possible to change the size of an image thats from a link and not a local file?? and how do u insert local files? sorry if these are dumb questions lol
You gotta do the same that local images! just use the selector and type the height and width of the image for uploading local files, after everything is ready you go to the edit page of your site, there you can upload them1!

The part about describing html as a pile of bones and css as the order/style of the bones was actually a great example

Sorry but what does OC mean ?
No jokes, this is by far the best, most in-depth, practical guide to html and css ever. Awesomely done video 👍
You are good at showing things to people on the internet.
Just a PSA: Make sure you put all the pages in the top folder that you have the project in. Don't make a "pages" folder for it because then you won't be able to link the images.
It's often better to have a folder per page with the relevant resources included in said folder. Makes it easier to keep track of stuff.

I have already did my website now.
But it is cooooool
wait is it necessary to put twice to add more space?
i cant seem to upload brackets to the site. it takes abnormally long
how do u get brackets to open up the neocities thing tho? im fairly lost
i know this is 2 months ago
but you dont
you press the lightning button on the right side in brackets
can somebody explain how to connect brackets? it wont show up
could you show us something actually from scratch? like, without just already having a base?
@tarreye everything in this video was coded by me so it is by scratch.. 😭
@@cinnimani sorry, i mean as in without the base
i might just be slow when it comes to coding though
for your tutorials do you use 64 bit or 32 bit?
has anyone also gotten the error " element is not permitted as content under (element-permitted-content) "??
I also am struggling with images showing up when i use a url. Am i missing something or not understanding? QwQ?
how do i link brackets to my neocities site? when i try to upload it it says that i cant. Its only for supporters. Am i linking the wrong file??? I literally cant figure it out. I figured out how to make the live previeew work but if i save nothing changes
having the same issue :(
im almost certain ive answered this but i will answer again anyway. 😅 everything you do in brackets is local, aka on your personal computer. you will have to manually upload everything to neocities when youre Done with the page.

hii! ik this video was made a year ago and idk if u check comments still but is it possible to change the size of an image thats from a link and not a local file?? and how do u insert local files? sorry if these are dumb questions lol
You gotta do the same that local images! just use the selector and type the height and width of the image
for uploading local files, after everything is ready you go to the edit page of your site, there you can upload them1!
Which type of ads we can add in the Neocities platform. Can you please tell me my Friend.
how do u get more options for fonts on brackets? you only get a few
I kinda understand code, but have no idea what neocities mean
How to add the background image on here???
I don't want to instal brackets so its dificult for me to make something
It seems you can use it in the browser
i am having an extremely difficult and infuriating time simply putting my own pictures in a website
Thanks, you're the best
ive coded before, its just my site isnt pretty enough
thaaankkkyouuuu!!!!
