What is HTML ?



HyperText Markup Language (HTML) is the common language used to build and design websites and web applicationsą„¤ HTML provides the basic structure and markup for web contentą„¤ Here are some important HTML concepts and components:

1. HTML Document Structure:

  • HTML elements, which are represented by tags, are used to structure an HTML documentą„¤
  • An HTML document's basic structure consists of the <!DOCTYPE html> declaration, the <html> element, the <head> element, which contains meta-information, and the <body> element, which contains the actual content.

2. HTML Tags:

  • Elements on a webpage are defined by HTML tags.
  • Angle brackets (< >) enclose tags, and the majority of tags are found in pairs (opening and closing tags).
  • Example: <p> for paragraph, <h1> for heading, <a> for hyperlink, etc.
3. Headings: 
  • HTML has six levels of headings, ranging from <h1>, which is the biggest and most significant, to <h6>, which is the smallest and least significant.
4. Attributes:
  • HTML tags can have attributes that provide additional information about the elements.
  • Attributes are usually included in the opening tag and provide extra details or settings.
  • Example: <a href="https://www.example.com">Visit Example.com</a>
5. Paragraphs: 
  • To define a paragraph, use the <p> tag.
6. Links:
  • To make a hyperlink, use the <a> (anchor) tag.
  • Using <a href="https://www.example.com"> as an exampleGo to Example.com.
7. Images: 
  • To embed images, use the <img> tag.
  • Example: <img alt="Description of the image" src="image.jpg">
8. Lists:
  • HTML allows list items (<li>), unordered lists (<ul>), and ordered lists (<ol>).
9. Forms:
  • Text fields, radio buttons, checkboxes, and buttons are examples of input elements found in forms, which are made with the <form> tag.
  • Example: <form action="/submit" method="post">...</form>
10. Tables:
  • The <table> tag is used to create tables, and the <tr> and <td> (data cell) or <th> (header cell) tags are used to define rows and cells.
11. Comments:
  •  <!-- comment goes here --> can be used to add HTML comments.


This example has an unordered list, a heading, a paragraph, and a basic HTML structure. The basis for web development is HTML, which is frequently combined with JavaScript for online interaction and CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) for styling.
