From Scratch Web Games: A Beginners Guide to Game Development using HTML, CSS, and JavaScript

Chapter 2.1: HTML Basics Cheat Sheet

Each chapter, with the exception of the first and last, will have a cheat sheet summarizing the chapter. The cheat sheets are being written using the technologies we are discussing, and I will limit what tags and formatting used in the cheat sheet to just what I have already covered or am covering in the chapter. This means that this first cheat sheet is pretty limited in it’s presentation. The purpose of the cheat sheet is to give you a summary of the chapter and to allow readers who are already familiar with the material to review the material and decide if they want to skip the chapter. I urge those readers to attempt the project just to make sure they really do understand the material but that is up to you. Here is the cheat sheet and the source is located in my github repository.
