Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) is the standard markup language used for creating web pages and structuring web content. HTML uses a system of tags to define the elements and layout of a web page, such as headings, paragraphs, links, images, and lists.
HTML serves as the backbone of web content and is interpreted by web browsers to display web pages as users see them. For example, HTML tags like <p> define paragraphs, <a> define links, and <img> define images. Web developers use HTML to structure the content of web pages and create the layout that users interact with.
