Let’s review what you’ve learned so far:

​ HTML stands for HyperText Markup Language and is used to create the
structure and content of a webpage.
​ Most HTML elements contain opening and closing tags with raw text or
other HTML tags between them.
​ HTML elements can be nested inside other elements. The enclosed
element is the child of the enclosing parent element.
​ Any visible content should be placed within the opening and closing <body>
tags.
​ Headings and sub-headings, <h1> to <h6> tags, are used to provide titles for
sections of content.
​ <p>, <span> and <div> tags specify text or blocks.
​ The <em> and <strong> tags are used to emphasize text.
​ Line breaks are created with the <br> tag.
​ Ordered lists (<ol>) are numbered and unordered lists (<ul>) are bulleted.
​ Images (<img>) and videos (<video>) can be added by linking to an existing
source.
​ The <!DOCTYPE html> declaration should always be the first line of code in
your HTML files. This lets the browser know what version of HTML to
expect.
​ The <html> element will contain all of your HTML code.
​ Information about the web page, like the title, belongs within the <head> of
the page.
​ You can add a title to your web page by using the <title> element, inside
of the head.
​ A webpage’s title appears in a browser’s tab.
​ Anchor tags (<a>) are used to link to internal pages, external pages or
content on the same page.HREF TAG
​ You can create sections on a webpage and jump to them using <a> tags
and adding ids to the elements you wish to jump to.
​ Whitespace between HTML elements helps make code easier to read while
not changing how elements appear in the browser.
​ Indentation also helps make code easier to read. It makes parent-child
relationships visible.
​ Comments are written in HTML using the following syntax: <!-- comment
-->.
