Introduction to HTML

HyperText Markup Language (HTML) is the standard markup language for documents designed to be displayed in a web browser. It defines the basic structure of all web pages.

Why Learn This?

The Foundation of the Web

Every website on the internet relies on HTML to structure its content. Without it, the web literally would not exist.

Easy to Learn

Simple, semantic tag structures make it incredibly beginner friendly. You can build your first webpage in a matter of minutes.

Semantic Accessibility

HTML5 introduces structural tags that help screen readers and search engines naturally understand exactly what your page is about.

How to Get Started

HTML requires absolutely no installation, downloads, or build engines! It runs natively inside every browser on earth.

Your first index.html file:
