Intro to HTML

HTML stands for HyperText Markup Language. It's the standard language for creating web pages.

HTML uses tags to define elements. Tags are written with angle brackets:

<tagname>content</tagname>

For example, a paragraph is written as:

<p>Hello, World!</p>

Most tags come in pairs — an opening tag and a closing tag (with a /).

HTML has 6 heading levels (<h1> through <h6>) and paragraphs (<p>).

Try editing the code below — add an <h2> and a <p> tag:

Links use the <a> tag with an href attribute:

<a href="https://example.com">Click me</a>

Unordered lists use <ul> with <li> items. Try building a list with a link:

1. Which tag creates the largest heading?

2. What attribute does an <a> tag use to specify the URL?

3. Which tag wraps each item inside a list?
