- You don't have to write your own HTML but if you would like to, see All The HTML You Need. Web pages are created using a code called HTML (HyperText Markup Language). Visitors to the WWW do not see the HTML code unless they choose to "view source" from their web browser's menu. The ToL Easy Editor provides what is called a web editor so that you can add text and media to your treehouse without writing HTML code.
