Personality and friendliness don't come from unnecessary words. A book should be written with authority and emphasize with the reader. Some parts of the text do this well, such as this:

> Learning HTML and CSS is hard, but it doesn’t have to be.

That's a great start. It's friendly and it doesn't have unnecessary words in it. It's actually quite powerful.

There's a fine line between being friendly and starting to babble.

You should empathize with the reader.
The reader appreciates a readable text. Empathise and provide that.
Oh yeah, thanks for pointing out the typo. Too late to fix it.
