What is HTML?
HTML (HyperText Markup Language) is the standard markup language for creating web pages and web applications. HTML files define the structure and content of web pages using a system of tags and attributes that describe headings, paragraphs, lists, links, images, forms, and other elements. The latest version, HTML5, introduced semantic elements, multimedia support (audio, video), canvas for drawing, and APIs for geolocation, local storage, and more. HTML files are the building blocks of the World Wide Web, rendered by web browsers to present content to users. They work in conjunction with CSS for styling and JavaScript for interactivity. HTML is maintained by the W3C and WHATWG as a living standard that continues to evolve.
