Introduction to HTML
HTML (HyperText Markup Language) is the standard markup language for creating the structure and content of webpages. As a senior engineer transitioning into frontend development, it's important to have a solid understanding of HTML.
HTML uses a system of tags and elements to define the structure and content of a webpage. Tags are used to surround different elements and provide meaning to the browser. Elements can be headings (<h1>, <h2>, etc.), paragraphs (<p>), lists (<ul>, <ol>), links (<a>), and many more.
Here's an example of an HTML document:
1<!DOCTYPE html>
2<html>
3 <head>
4 <title>My First Webpage</title>
5 </head>
6 <body>
7 <h1>Welcome to My Webpage!</h1>
8 <p>This is a paragraph of text.</p>
9 <ul>
10 <li>Item 1</li>
11 <li>Item 2</li>
12 <li>Item 3</li>
13 </ul>
14 </body>
15</html>In the above example, we have an HTML document with a title, a heading, a paragraph, and a list. The <!DOCTYPE html> declaration tells the browser that this is an HTML5 document.
HTML provides the basic structure for a webpage, and it's essential for frontend development. By mastering HTML, you'll be able to create well-structured and semantically meaningful webpages.
