In this video, we will delve into the development of a landing page whose main objective is to capture leads through a newsletter signup form.

The goal is to create an attractive, modern, and functional design using only HTML and CSS. The landing page will serve as a great example for anyone looking to understand how to create effective interfaces that convert visitors into subscribers.

We will start building the page from the basic HTML structure. The idea is to create a layout that is clear and intuitive. We will begin with the document type declaration, which is essential for the browser to know how to interpret the page's content. Next, we will set the language to Portuguese, which will help with accessibility and indexing the content by search engines.

Within the head section, we will add the viewport meta tag, which is necessary to ensure that our page is responsive. This setting allows the page to adjust properly to different screen sizes, whether on mobile devices or desktops. We will also define the page title, which will appear in the browser tab and search results, and link to an external CSS file that will contain all the necessary styles to bring our project to life.

The main structure of the page will consist of a header and a body. In the header, we will create a div for the logo and the title of our brand, which in this case is "Hora de Codar." Next, we will add a navigation bar that will include links to different sections such as "Home," "Services," "About," "Contact," and "FAQ." This navigation bar will make users feel more comfortable browsing the site, increasing the likelihood of interaction.

In the body of the page, we will focus on the main content, where we will encourage visitors to subscribe to our newsletter. We will create an impactful message that highlights the importance of subscribing, using an eye-catching title that includes a subtitle with a different color highlight to draw even more attention from the user. The supporting text will be a brief description explaining the benefits of subscribing, using clear and direct language.

An essential part of the landing page is the signup form. For this, we will create fields for users to enter their name and email address, ensuring that both pieces of information are mandatory for submitting the form. The submit button will be styled to stand out, using vibrant colors that match the theme of the page. This not only increases the button's visibility but also enhances the user experience.

In addition to the textual content and the form, we will add a visual element: an image that complements the message of the landing page. This image will be strategically positioned using CSS to ensure it adapts to the screen size without losing quality. To add a design touch, we will use an elliptical shape as a background element that will provide depth to the page.

The CSS styling part is where the magic happens. We will define the colors of our page, choose appropriate fonts, and create a layout that is visually appealing. The color palette will include dark tones for the background, which will contrast well with the light text, ensuring readability and a sophisticated appearance. We will use rounded borders and gradients on some elements to give the landing page a more modern look.

Throughout the video, we will make real-time adjustments, showing how small details can impact the design and functionality of the landing page. By the end, you will have a complete project that not only demonstrates your skills in HTML and CSS but also serves as an excellent portfolio to showcase to potential employers or clients.
