⭐ What is HTML?
HTML (HyperText Markup Language) is the standard language used to create and structure webpages. It tells the browser what to display on the screen — like text, images, buttons, forms, tables, videos, and links.
HTML is not a programming language. It is a markup language, which means it uses tags to mark different parts of a webpage.
⭐ Why HTML is Important?
HTML is the foundation of every website.
No matter how advanced a website is — WordPress, React, Python, or Java — everything ultimately becomes HTML in the browser.
⭐ How HTML Works?
HTML uses opening and closing tags to define structure.
Example:
Here:
-
<h1>is a heading tag -
<p>is a paragraph tag
The browser reads these tags and displays them accordingly.
