Welcome to the HTML Reference!

Everything you need to know about HTML.

What is HTML?

HTML stands for HyperText Markup Language.

Think of it like a skeleton that gives your browser a basic layout of the page. In most cases, this is styled with CSS to look much better, as regular bare HTML can often not look as good when viewed as a web page in your browser.

Structure

Let's look at the HTML Structure of a basic web page.

<!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>

    </body>
</html>
