Hello, this is MUESIGN.
Today, let's look at what HTML is and its terminology.
When surfing the web, you often come across the term "HTML".
HTML is a representative client language that composes the skeleton of a web page.
What does HTML stand for, and what exactly does it do?
What is HTML?
HTML is a type of Web language used to create documents that can be viewed through the World Wide Web (www), which is one of the Internet services. HTML is specifically developed for writing hypertext, and most web pages accessed via the web on the Internet are written in HTML.
So what is hypertext?
HTML is an abbreviation for Hypertext Markup Language, but in order to understand HTML, it is necessary to understand the concepts of Hypertext and Markup Language separately.
Hypertext: Hypertext
Published documents, which were the main medium for learning information before the development of the Internet, required readers to read the texts in order according to the author's intentions. However, the evolution of web pages has allowed users to select information in any order they like, regardless of the order of the content, and Hypertext has made this possible. Therefore, you can use Hypertext to connect to other resources such as external web pages and files.
Markup Language: Markup language
Markup Language is a language that uses Mark (display, code) to describe the structure of documents and data. Since the HTML Mark means the tag "<String>", it refers to the language that uses "<String>" to represent the structure of a document. (Can include various media such as photographs, visual materials, images, etc., including text in the document)
HTML markup uses various "tag elements", but for tag elements
<head>, <title>, <body>, <header>, <footer>, <article>, <section>, <p>, <div>, <span>, <img>, <aside>, <audio >, <Canvas>, <datalist>, <detatils>, <embed>, <nav>, <output>, <progress>, <video>, <ul>, <ol>, <li>, <table>, There are many tags such as <tr>, <td>, <dl> and so on.
In summary, HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) is the code used to structure web pages and the content within them. HTML is not a programming language, but a markup language that defines the structure of content.
A document written in the markup language HTML in this way is called an HTML document, and the document written in this HTML will be interpreted by the Web browser and shown to the user.
HTML is a typical markup language that composes web pages, so if you do not follow the rules and create it, you can output as the developer intended regardless of the type of browser used by the user.
HTML rules have been created by the Web standardization mechanism W3C (World Wide Consortium), and HTML5 is currently used as a standard.
