HTML Document Structure

How does an HTML document structure look?

HTML document structure contains some set of tags. Tags are some text enclosed within <…> angle braces. A tag is like a container for either content or other HTML tags. The below text shows how the HTML document structure looks:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <title>Document</title>
</head>
<body>
   <!-- content -->
</body>
</html>

Do not be afraid. I will explain what is being represented above to you.

NOTE: These are the five must-use tags for HTML

<!DOCTYPE html>, <html>, <head>, <title>, <body>

1.	<!DOCTYPE html>

The <!DOCTYPE> declaration tag is used by the web browser to understand the version of the HTML used in the document. The current version is 5 i.e. HTML 5.

2.	<html>

The <html> tag is the root of an HTML page.

3.	<head>

The <head> tag contains page metadata.

4.	<title>Document</title>

The <title> tag contains the title of a page and is shown in the browser title bar.

5.	</head>

The </head> tag is closing of <head> tag.

6.	<body>

<body> tag is the main tag of HTML. It contains the main body of the page and is shown in the white part of the browser.

7.	</body>

The </body> tag is closing of <body> tag.

8.	</html>

The </html> tag is closing of <html> tag.

Every HTML page needs at least these 8 lines to define a layout of a page. We will learn more about HTML tags in the upcoming tutorial.
