Introduction to HTML Fundamentals

Reference Document & Educational Guide

1. What is HTML?
HTML stands for HyperText Markup Language. It is the standard markup language for creating web
pages and web applications. With Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) and JavaScript, it forms a triad of
cornerstone technologies for the World Wide Web.

2. Document Structure
A basic HTML document consists of a document type declaration, a root html element, a head
section containing metadata and titles, and a body section containing the visible webpage content
such as headings, paragraphs, images, and hyperlinks.

3. Common Elements and Tags


Web developers use various structural tags including headings (h1 to h6), text formatting blocks (p,
strong, em), lists (ul, ol, li), and structural containers (div, span, section, article) to organize text and
layout elements on a page.
