@Jamie Exactly. That's why I have my preferences as well; gotta love syntax highlighting and prediction.

Notepad++ is definitely better than Notepad in every way, especially if you're going to be using it for programming. You may want to give Brackets or WebMatrix 3 a shot also, both are free. I've found both of those to be infinitely better for working on websites than anything else. Hope that helps.

why not atom or visual studio code? both free and feature rich.

or do I have to create a new file for css and point it to the html and then just run the css which I would think run the html as well?
