What is HTML?<\/strong><\/span><\/h2>\n

HTML stands for HyperText Markup Language<\/strong>. It\u2019s a markup language used to create the structure of web pages. HTML consists of elements represented by tags, such as <html<\/span>><\/code>,<\/strong> <head<\/span><\/strong>><\/code>, <body<\/span><\/strong>><\/code>,<\/span> and many more. These elements define the layout and content of a webpage.<\/span><\/p>\n

For example:<\/span><\/p>\n

<!DOCTYPE html>\r\n<html>\r\n<head>\r\n    <title>Welcome to My Website<\/title>\r\n<\/head>\r\n<body>\r\n    <h1>Hello, World!<\/h1>\r\n    <p>This is a paragraph in HTML.<\/p>\r\n<\/body>\r\n<\/html><\/span><\/code><\/span><\/pre>\n
This simple HTML document displays a web page with a title and a heading.<\/span><\/p>\n
