HTML TUTORIAL FOR BEGINNERS

While many online guides try to use a lot of mind-boggling theory to teach
HTML, this tutorial will instead concentrate on giving you the practical skills to
create your first site.

The goal is to show you how to build your first web page without focusing too
much on the "why" in the entire tutorial.

You will have the know-how to build a simple website by the end of this
tutorial and we hope this will motivate you to further delve into the HTML
world using our follow-on guides.

Starting in 1989, Tim Berners-Lee, Robert Cailliau, and others first developed
HTML. It stands for Hyper Text Markup Language.

Hypertext means that there are links in the document that allow the reader to
leap to other places in the document or completely to another document. The
most recent release is known as HTML5.
Features of HTML

Well, there are so many HTML features but we're going to cover the most
important ones in this HTML tutorial.

• HTML defines a web page structure.


• Tags, which are human-readable, are represented by HTML elements.
• HTML is supported by any known browser available today.
• Learning and using it is quite easy. In a few days, you can easily learn
HTML programming and create your first web page or design an entire
website, but it depends on how long you spend practising.
• It is independent of the platform, which ensures that it runs on all
operating systems.

• <! DOCTYPE >: Describes the document type in the HTML version.

tag, i.e., it also has a < /html > closing tag. Anything inside those tags
will be written.
• <head >: contains information about the document, such as its title,
information about the author, website description, etc. To achieve these
tasks, it has various tags. It is a paired name, as well.
• < title >: inside < head > is used and the document title is specified.

If you want to view something on the webpage you must write it in this
