Exploring HTML for Web Development

Welcome to the world of web development! Building a website can be an intimidating process, but taking it step-by-step can help simplify the process. For starters, let’s talk about HTML - Hypertext Markup Language. Many websites are written in HTML, and with a few basics, you can create your own dynamic pages. HTML consists of elements which are made up of tags that tell your browser how to display content to viewers. Tags are used to define the structure of your page. The two main types of tags are start tags and end tags. Start tags are surrounded by < >, while end tags are the same but have an extra slash before the tag name. For example, to make a heading on your page, you would use the

start tag followed by the

end tag. Anything in between those tags would be shown as a large heading on the page. When displaying text, you should use

tags. This tells the browser that what is between the

and

tags is a paragraph. You can also use font styling to make your text look better on the page. To do this, you can use the for emphasized text and for bold text. Linking to other webpages is an important part of web development, and HTML has specific tags for this task. The tag for linking is the tag, and it has an attribute called href. The href attribute takes the address of the webpage you want to link to, like https://example.com. Now that you understand the basics of HTML, you are ready to start developing your own webpages. With a few simple tags, you can quickly create dynamic and interactive websites. Happy coding!
