Overview

HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) is a markup language used to create web pages and other online content. It consists of a series of tags and attributes that define the structure and content of a document, including text, images, links, and other multimedia.

HTML is the foundation of the World Wide Web and is essential to creating and publishing content online. It allows web developers to create structured and semantically meaningful content that can be accessed and interpreted by browsers and other web-enabled devices.

HTML has gone through several iterations since its initial release in the early 1990s, with HTML5 being the latest version. HTML5 includes a number of new features and elements designed to improve the user experience and make it easier to create dynamic, interactive web content.

Basic syntax for an HTML document:

                    
                            
                            <!DOCTYPE html>
                            <html>
                            <head>
                                <title>Page Title</title>
                            </head>
                            <body>
                                <h1>Heading 1</h1>
                                <p>This is a paragraph.</p>
                            </body>
                            </html>
                            
                    
                

Let's break down each part of this code:

  • <!DOCTYPE html> declares the document type as HTML5.
  • <html> is the root element of the document, containing all other elements.
  • <head> contains metadata about the document, such as the page title and links to external stylesheets and scripts.
  • <title> is used to set the page title, which appears in the browser\'s title bar and search engine results.
  • <body> contains the visible content of the document, such as text, images, and other HTML elements.
  • <h1> is a heading element, used to indicate the main heading of the page.
  • <p> is a paragraph element, used to contain blocks of text.

It\'s important to note that HTML is a markup language, which means that the tags and attributes are used to define the structure and meaning of the content, rather than specifying how it should look. To style the content, you'll need to use CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) or other web technologies.
