What is Semantic Markup? ~ GameDev Challenge

This is a submission for the Web Game Challenge: One Byte Explainer

Explainer

Semantic markup refers to the use of HTML elements that clearly describe their meaning in a way that’s both easy for developers and understood by machines e.g, use of tags like <header>, <section>, and <footer>.

Additional Context

Using semantic markup makes our code SEO-optimized and user-friendly by improving its chances of appearing at the top of search results. It also enhances code readability, enables better layouts, improves UX, and is widely used by screen readers for accessibility.
