Introduction

A Chapter by Brandon Lockman

HTML stands for Hypertext Markup Language. It is the programming language that makes up the entire web. The best part about HTML is that it is not hard to learn, unlike programing languages like C++, C#, and BrainF***.

You start HTML code like this (Basic version)

<!DOCTYPE html>

<html>

<head>

<title>Page Title</title>

</head>

<body>

Here is a more complex version

<!DOCTYPE html>

<head>

<title>Page Title</title>

<body>

Simply, you end an HTML program by writing:

</body>

</html>

The greater than/less than symbols start and end a tag. An HTML tag is commonly defined as a set of characters constituting a formatted command for a Web page. At the core of HTML, tags provide the directions or recipes for the visual content that one sees on the Web.
