# HTML

Getting started with the basics of HTML

## What is HTML? 

HTML stands for Hypertext Markup Language, and it is the standard language used for creating web pages and other information that can be displayed in a web browser.

HTML consists of a series of tags and attributes that define the structure and content of a web page. For example, you can use HTML to define headings, paragraphs, lists, links, images, and many other types of content. 

HTML is not a programming language, but a markup language, meaning it describes the structure and content of a web page but does not specify how that content should be displayed or behave. When you combine HTML with other technologies such as JavaScript and CSS, it provides a powerful and flexible way to create an interactive, efficient and dynamic website.

The HTML file extension is saved in this format `"`**`File name.html"`** and **f**or every web page you create in a HTML editor you save it with a **.html** extension.

`An example is`` `**`Index.html`**
