April 4, 2026

What is HTML?

HTML (HyperText Markup Language) is the standard language used to create the structure of web pages.

Basic Document Structure

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <title>My First Page</title>
</head>
<body>
    <h1>Hello, World!</h1>
    <p>This is a simple HTML page.</p>
</body>
</html>

Key Points

  • HTML uses tags to define elements (e.g., <h1>, <p>).
  • All pages start with <!DOCTYPE html>.
  • Content visible in the browser goes inside <body>.
