HTML1/CSS - intro to web development

• HTML is the computer language that structures all the web pages on the internet. It stands for Hypertext Markup Language.
• To create a button, we use <button>Like</button> . These are called HTML tags
• Opening tags are surrounded by <> , while closing tags are surrounded by </>
• In HTML, the keywords of some tags are obvious, but there are some tags that use a shortened form. For example, we use p for a paragraph.
• The heading tag emphasizes texts by making them bigger and bolder. h1 is the biggest and boldest and h6 is the smallest and least bold
• <br> is an empty tag. Empty tags have no closing tag and no content
• There's an element for giving emphasis to text, it makes it italic. It's called the em element.
• To define texts as important, we use the <strong> and </strong> tags. It makes text bold.
• Uniform Resource Locator (URL)
• <a> stands for "Anchor" tag.
• href is short for "hypertext reference".
• href is an attribute. All attributes have two things in common: they provide extra information and they go inside the opening tag.
• To add images to a webpage, we start with the <img> tag.
• To display an image, an image tag needs the src attribute. src stands for source
• The html and body elements form the structure of a webpage. We place elements we want to display inside of the body
• The head element, is a container for information about the webpage, like it's title. It goes before the body tag
• The doctype tells the web browser what version of html were using.
• Rel attribute defines the relationship between a linked source and the current document
• Href attribute indicates the destination of the hyperlink
