    Couldn’t they just use No JavaScript and get the same approach? Or no JavaScript and no CSS?

    Why do we need a whole new standard? That’s never a good approach

        They were teaching HTML in Primary Schools and then again in Middle Schools. I have a hard time believing it’s easier especially when it’s not every real Markdown. It’s its own former because again - why use a standard when I can make my own???

          Admittedly I’ve only just found out about this today, but my understanding is that it’s meant to be going back to basics since modern web design is so far removed from the original intentions of HTML.

          I’m probably too young for that- I didn’t learn HTML in school, all the programming curriculum was in Scratch or Microsoft Makecode, and I assume it still is.
