What is HTML ?



HyperText Markup Language (HTML) is the common language used to build and design websites and web applications। HTML provides the basic structure and markup for web content। 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 document।
  • 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.
