HTML is a means of presenting information in the World Wide Web in a beautiful and attractive way. HTML was created in 1991 by Tim Berners lee. HTML is managed as a standard by the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C). The W3C is an international community that works to create and manage web standards.
When a technology or language is chosen as the standard, all platforms, developers and organizations follow it unconditionally. It does not matter which operating system or editor you are using, HTML is always used to create webpages.
HTML TAGS
Basic tags are tags that are essentially used in all HTML documents. These tags define the core structure of an HTML document. The list of basic tags of HTML is given below.
• <html> - This tag defines an HTML file. Every HTML file is started with this tag and ends with this tag.
• <head> - This tag defines the scripts and styles related to the webpage.
• <title> - The title of the webpage is defined by this tag.
• <body> - The main content of the webpage is defined in this tag.
