HTML & CSS
HTML
HTML is a markup language that specifies that structure and content of documents
that are displayed in web browsers
HTML are the building blocks of web pages
HTML elements are represented by tags
HTML is called a programming language but it has no logic, so it
is a markup language. HTML tags provide semantic meaning
and machine-readability to the content in the page.
Browsers (e.g. Brave, Opera GX, Chrome etc.) do not display the HTML tags, but
rather they use them to render the content of the page
Some History
HTML was invented by Tim Burners-Lee in 1991
HTML5 reached recommendation status in October 2014
The previous HTML was standardised in 1999 (HTML 4.01)

HTML: Tags
HTML documents delimit most elements with a start tag and end tag with the content
inserted between them
<tagname>Content goes here</tagname>
A start tag consists of the element name inside angle brackets
<starttag>
An end tag follows the same principle, except the tagname is preceded by a forward
slash
</starttag>
Some tags do not have end tags. These are known as “void tags”
<meta>
Many start tags have attributes that provide additional information about an element,
which browsers use to determine how to process the element
Each attribute has a name and a value separated by an equal sign “=”. Note quoted
attributes
<div id = “mainContainer”> or <p style “color:red;”>
