HTML Guide

HTML (HyperText Markup Language) is the most basic building block of the web. It describes and defines the content of a webpage. That does not include the appearance (CSS) or functionality (JavaScript) of a webpage.

"HyperText" refers to links that connect webpages to one another, either within a single website or between websites.

HTML uses "markup" to annotate text, images, and other content for display in a Web browser. HTML markup includes special "elements" such as <head>, <title>, <body>, <header>, <footer>, <article>, <section>, <p>, <div>, <span>, <img>, and many others.
