HTML Notes

HTML
HTML (HyperText Markup Language) is the basic language used to create websites. It helps the browser understand what content to show, such as text, images, links, and headings.
The founder of HTML is Tim Berners-Lee. He invented HTML in 1991 and also created the World Wide Web, including URLs and the first web browser.

Markup Language
Markup language is a way to structure and organise text for computers to display properly. HTML, for example, tells the browser which part is a heading, paragraph, or link.

Difference between Markup Language vs Programming Language
A markup language (like HTML) is for structuring and displaying content.
A programming language (like Python) is for making the computer perform tasks or logic.

Scripting Language
A scripting language is a type of programming language that is used to automate tasks or add behavior to websites and apps. Scripts are usually easy to write and run directly without compiling.

HTML and CSS version
HTML’s previous versions were 1.0 to 4.01, providing basic structure, forms, and tables. The current version, HTML5, supports video, audio, and modern interactive content. CSS started with CSS1 and CSS2 for basic styling, while CSS3 adds animations, transitions, and advanced design features.
