Lesson 1.1: What is HTML?
🔹 Overview:
HTML (HyperText Markup Language) is the standard language used to create and structure web pages. It defines the layout of content like headings, paragraphs, images, and links using "tags".
🔹 Key Concepts:
- HTML is not a programming language – it's a markup language.
- Every website is built with HTML at its core.
- HTML elements are written with angle brackets, like
<p>
.
🔹 Example:
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>My First Web Page</title>
</head>
<body>
<h1>Hello, World!</h1>
<p>This is my first web page using HTML.</p>
</body>
</html>
