HTML Syntax

Like any other programming language, HTML has syntax rules that must be followed to write it correctly. What I like about HTML is its simplicity in creating things. When adding attributes to elements, they can be added inside the opening tag. In other programming languages, more complex techniques are used, like parsing or encapsulation to manipulate data, which can get very complex. HTML is simple and straight to the point. When writing HTML, it is very helpful to use an IDE, which will assist you in writing the code by automatically creating the closing tags for you, ensuring the code is written properly.
