🌐 Introduction to HTML – The Foundation of Every Website

HTML, which stands for HyperText Markup Language, is the basic building block of every website on the internet. Whether you visit social media, watch videos, or read blogs, HTML is always working behind the scenes to structure the content you see.

In this blog, we will learn what HTML is, why it is important, and how beginners can start learning it.

📌 What is HTML?

HTML is a markup language used to create the structure of web pages.
It tells the browser what to show, such as:

Headings
Paragraphs
Images
Links
Tables
Forms

Example of simple HTML code:


<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <title>My First Page</title>
</head>
<body>

<h1>Hello World</h1>
<p>This is my first HTML page.</p>

</body>
</html>

This code creates a simple web page with a heading and a paragraph.

📌 Why HTML is Important

HTML is important because:

✅ It is the foundation of web development
