Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) is the standard markup language for documents designed to be displayed in a web browser. It defines the content and structure of web content. It allows the creation and structure of sections, paragraphs, and links using HTML elements (the building blocks of a web page) such as tags and attributes.
What is the role of HTML in frontend development?
Front-end development refers to the process of creating the parts of a website or application that users see and interact with directly. Front-end developers use a combination of programming languages, tools, and technologies to build user interfaces and user experiences, namely HTML, CSS, and JavaScript.
CSS styles the visual presentation of HTML content, including colours, fonts, layouts, and responsive design for different screen sizes.
JavaScript is used to add interactivity, dynamic behaviour, and client-side functionality to web pages, such as form validation, animations, and real-time updates.
