Welcome to the HTML Elements guide! This section covers essential HTML tags and their usage in web development. Let's dive into the basics and explore how to build structured web pages.

Core HTML Elements 📦

Here are fundamental elements every developer should know:

  • <html>
    The root element that wraps all content.
    Example: 

    <html>
  <body>
    Hello World!
  </body>
</html>

  • <head>
    Contains metadata about the document.
    Example: 

    <head>
  <title>My First Page</title>
</head>

  • <body>
    Holds the visible content of the webpage.
    Example: 

    <body>
  <h1>Welcome</h1>
  <p>This is a paragraph.</p>
</body>
