HTML Introduction

Last Updated : 20 Apr, 2026

HTML (HyperText Markup Language) is the standard language for creating and structuring web pages using tags and elements. It defines how content like text, images, and links appear in a browser.

  • It is a markup language, not a programming language.
  • This means it annotates text to define how it is structured and displayed by web browsers.
  • It is a static language, meaning it does not inherently provide interactive features but can be combined with CSS for styling and JavaScript for interactivity.
