Hey HN,

I want to explain my motivation for working on this course. I'll start by saying that this is a paid course.

HTML and CSS have a relatively low barrier to getting into. Moreover, browsers are very lenient, and the HTML specification itself allows you to make mistakes. However, we've been neglecting semantic HTML for a very long time (and sometimes accessibility). This is why I wanted to work on a detailed step-by-step course that teaches HTML and CSS while focusing on semantics and accessibility from the start.

For example, `div` is only introduced in Chapter 49. Most challenges require you to pass automated accessibility checks (color contrast, main landmark, headings hierarchy, etc.)

Let me know what you think!
