I'm working on an art project where I want to recreate an old Geocities-style website that runs on a Windows 98 interface, complete with diary entries that tell a story. I want to do this as an HTML file since I plan to record it as a video. I'm not looking to run this online, and I've heard about 'vibecoding,' but as a complete beginner in coding, I'm worried about getting lost in the details. Is this something too complicated for someone with no coding experience?

If you're aiming for that nostalgic 90s vibe, I'd recommend trying out a user-friendly HTML editor like SeaMonkey Composer. It's free and has that retro feel, similar to tools people used back in the day. You can work on everything locally and just keep everything in one folder for your recordings. Also, if you want to familiarize yourself with some basic HTML tips, there's a surprisingly helpful guide on Neopets. But honestly, you don't have to be an HTML expert to recreate those fun Geocities pages!
I checked out SeaMonkey, and it's totally giving me those early 2000s vibes—thanks for the tip!
