To create a Netflix login or sign-in page using HTML and CSS, follow these step-by-step instructions:
Create a folder. You can name this folder whatever you want, and inside this folder, create the mentioned files.
Create an index.html file. The file name must be index and its extension .html
Create a style.css file. The file name must be style and its extension .css
Download and place the Images folder in your project directory. This folder includes the Netflix logo and the hero background image.

To start, add the following HTML codes to your index.html file: This code includes various elements such as navigation, headings, paragraphs, a form, input fields, a button, and links. I've also included default form validation using the required attribute in the input elements.

```
<!DOCTYPE html>
<!-- Coding By Learn With Danial -->
<html lang="en">
<head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8">
    <meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
    <title>Netflix Login Page </title>
    <link rel="stylesheet" href="style.css">
</head>
<body>
    <nav>
        <a href="#"><img src="images/logo.svg" alt="logo"></a>
    </nav>
    <div class="form-wrapper">
        <h2>Sign In</h2>
        <form action="#">
            <div class="form-control">
                <input type="text" required>
                <label>Email or phone number</label>
            </div>
            <div class="form-control">
                <input type="password" required>
                <label>Password</label>
            </div>
            <button type="submit">Sign In</button>
            <div class="form-help"> 
                <div class="remember-me">
                    <input type="checkbox" id="remember-me">
                    <label for="remember-me">Remember me</label>
                </div>
                <a href="#">Need help?</a>
            </div>
        </form>
        <p>New to Netflix? <a href="#">Sign up now</a></p>
        <small>
            This page is protected by Google reCAPTCHA to ensure you're not a bot. 
            <a href="#">Learn more.</a>
        </small>
    </div>
</body>
</html>
```
Next, add the following CSS codes to your style.css file to achieve a design that looks like the Netflix login page. This code includes different styles for elements such as color, font, background, border, etc., and makes the page responsive for all devices. Feel free to customize these styles according to your preferences.
