HTML
Stands for HyperText Markup Language

It is the language used to design the structure of websites

HTML uses ‘tags’ to create elements on the website. They are the building
blocks of the webpage.

Each tag needs an ‘opening’ and ‘closing’ tag, which is why you often see two of
the same tag next to each other

<h1> Hello World </h1>


Examples
<h1> </h1> → The header element
<h2> </h2> → The subheading element (can go all the way to <h6> which is
smallest)
<p> </p> → The paragraph element
<img> </img> → The image element
<br> </br> → The break element (creates a new line)
<em> </em> → The italic element
<strong> </strong> → The bold element
CSS
CSS controls how the website looks, how it is styled. (aka stylesheet)

It can do things like change the font, size, and colour of words.

A style sheet contains rules for how each HTML element should look like on the
webpage

It does this by creating an object for each element and adding properties to it, like
such:
