Bare-Bones Basics of HTML

No source links recorded for this answer.

HTML (HyperText Markup Language) is the standard language for creating web pages. It uses tags to structure content. Key points: - Document structure - <!DOCTYPE html> — declares HTML5. - <html> — root element. - <head> — metadata: <title>, <meta>, <link>, <style>, <script> (usually not visible). - <body> — visible content: text, images, links, lists, etc. - Basic tags - <title>Your page title</title> — shown in browser tab (inside head). - Headings: <h1>…</h1> to <h6>…</h6>. - Paragraph: <p>Paragraph text</p>. - Links: <a href="https://example.com">link text</a>. - Images: <img src="image.jpg" alt="description"> (self-closing; include alt). - Lists: - Unordered: <ul><li>Item</li></ul> - Ordered: <ol><li>Item</li></ol> - Line break: <br> - Horizontal rule: <hr> - Attributes - Provide extra info inside opening tag: <tag attribute="value">. - Common attributes: id, class, href, src, alt, title, style. - Nesting and well-formedness - Tags should be properly opened and closed and nested (e.g., <p><strong>text</strong></p>). - Example minimal page <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> <meta charset="utf-8"> <title>My Page</title> </head> <body> <h1>Hello</h1> <p>This is a minimal HTML page.</p> <a href="https://example.com">Visit example</a> </body> </html> - Where to learn next - Mozilla Developer Network (MDN) HTML guide: https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML - W3C HTML specification and tutorials: https://www.w3.org/ and https://www.w3schools.com/html/ Tips: start by editing the example file, open it in a browser, and change tags/attributes to see effects.
