Every web page is actually a HTML file. Each HTML file is just a plain-text file, but with a
.html file extension instead of .txt, and is made up of many HTML tags as well as the content
for a web page.
A web site will often contain many html files that link to each other. You can edit HTML files
with your favourite editor.
HTML Tags

HTML tags are the hidden keywords within a web page that define how the browser must
format and display the content.

HTML5 is a cooperation between the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) and the Web
Hypertext Application Technology Working Group (WHATWG).
