Very helpful, Thank you.

PS: I did notice that the interaction with the browsers through the developers tool can make the exercise a bit different. And the Jacob Nielsen's website looks very different nowadays (https://www.nngroup.com/)

The course was very interesting indeed because it showed the basic concepts and practical tips behind html sites. I can now understand better what is there in the 'backstage' of a webpage and avoid mistakes in translating them.

I had little to zero understanding of HTML before watching this video. I now feel very well informed, at leased well introduced to HTML and ready to start translating Web pages.

Too slow for my taste. I was expecting more emphasis on what the translator needs to translate, it's a bit blurr.

Extremely interesting. I was fascinated by the creation of my webpage. Thanks a lot, Andrea.
