Introduction to HTML

HTML, or HyperText Markup Language, is the standard markup language used to create web pages. It forms the backbone of web content and allows developers to structure text, images, links, and other media on a webpage.

Key Features of HTML:

Elements and Tags: HTML is composed of elements, which are represented by tags. For example, <p> for paragraphs and <h1> for headings.
Attributes: HTML elements can have attributes that provide additional information. For instance, the href attribute in <a> tags defines the URL of a link.
Structure: HTML documents have a defined structure, including a <head> section for meta-information and a <body> section for content.

Basic HTML Document Structure

Every HTML document begins with a declaration that specifies the version of HTML being used. Here's a simple structure:

                    <!DOCTYPE html>
                    <html lang="en">
                        <head>
                            <meta charset="UTF-8">
                            <meta name="viewport" 
                            content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1.0">
                            <title>My First Web Page</title>
                        </head>
                        <body>
                            <h1>Hello, World!</h1>
                            <p>Welcome to my first webpage!</p>
                        </body>
                    </html>
