Introduction To HTML
HTML (HyperText Markup Language) is the standard language used to create and design webpages. It provides the basic structure for web content, organizing text, images, links, and other multimedia elements in a browser-friendly format. HTML uses a system of tags and attributes to describe the content and layout of a webpage.
Basic Structure of HTML:
An HTML document typically consists of the following elements:
<!DOCTYPE html>: Declares the document type and version of HTML (HTML5 here).<html>: The root element that contains the entire HTML document.<head>: Contains meta-information about the document, such as title, character set, and linked stylesheets.<title>: Specifies the title of the webpage, which appears in the browser tab.<body>: Contains the content of the webpage that will be visible to users, including text, images, links, and more.
Example of a Simple HTML Document:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="UTF-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
<title>My First Web Page</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Welcome to My Website</h1>
<p>This is a simple HTML document to introduce you to web development!</p>
<a href="https://www.example.com">Visit Example</a>
</body>
</html>
Common HTML Elements:
- Headings:
<h1>,<h2>, etc. (used for headings and subheadings) - Paragraph:
<p>(used for text paragraphs) - Links:
<a>(used for hyperlinks) - Images:
<img>(used for images) - Lists:
<ul>(unordered list),<ol>(ordered list), and<li>(list item)
HTML is a powerful tool for building the structure of webpages, and it works together with other technologies like CSS (for styling) and JavaScript (for interactivity).
