Day1 - HTML

Hi all. Today I Learnt about HTML.

What is HTML ?

• HTML stands for Hyper Text Markup Language
• HTML is the standard markup language for creating Web pages
• HTML describes the structure of a Web page
• HTML consists of a series of elements
• HTML elements tell the browser how to display the content
• HTML elements label pieces of content such as "this is a heading", "this is a paragraph".

What is Markup Language?

A markup language is a text-encoding system that uses tags or symbols to define the structure, formatting, or relationships within a document, allowing computers to interpret and display content properly. It separates content from presentation, defining elements like headings and links rather than performing logic.

What is Elements ?
The HTML element is everything from the start tag to the end tag with Content.

What is metaData ?

• The tag defines metadata about an HTML document. Metadata is data (information) about data.
• tags always go inside the element, and are typically used to specify character set, page description, keywords, author of the document, and viewport settings.
• Metadata will not be displayed on the page, but is machine parsable.
• Metadata is used by browsers (how to display content or reload page), search engines (keywords), and other web services.
• There is a method to let web designers take control over the viewport (the user's visible area of a web page), through the tag (See "Setting The Viewport" example below).
