Started learning and understanding HTML tags with hands-on practice and gaining a deeper understanding of structuring and formatting web content.

Introduction to HTML

What is HTML?

HTML (HyperText Markup Language) is the markup language used to build web pages. It defines the structure and content of a webpage.

Basic HTML Structure

An HTML document consists of:


<!DOCTYPE html>         <!-- Declares HTML5 document type -->
<html>                  <!-- Root element -->
  <head>                <!-- Metadata (title, linked CSS/js) -->
    <title>My First Page</title>
  </head>
  <body>                <!-- Content visible to users -->
    <h1>Hello, World!</h1>
  </body>
</html>
