HTML stands for HyperText Markup Language. It is used to structure content for a website. For example, it is used to establish where paragraphs of text are located, where lists are used, and where pictures are insterted.
The three main parts of an HTML element are:
-The opening tag
-The closing tag
-The content
When an element is given extra information, that is called an attribute. They might look something like “class=editor-note”
A semantic element clearly describes its meaning to both the browser and the developer. Examples of non-semantic elements: “div” and “span” - Tells nothing about its content. Examples of semantic elements: “form” , “table” , and “article” - Clearly defines its content.
