Introduction😀

Once upon a time... 😂 No worry guys, I won't narrate a boring story. For each and everyone going into the web development journey, the best roadmap should include HTML as the primary item.

What is HTML?🤔

HTML in its full form, Hypertext Markup Language is the basic language when it comes to web development. Officially released in the 90s and nowadays we are up to version 5 (HTML 5). HTML is mainly for web formating and creating pages that are displayed on the world wide web.

Transitioning through HTML versions

Going through Html versions we have versions 4 and 5 as trending nowadays.

Main differences between HTML 4 and 5

The main differences are as seen in the image above. Last but not least is the Doctype tag at the beginning of HTML5 pages.

HTML5 Structure

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
        <head>
             <title>HTML5 basic structure.</title>
       </head>
       <body>
             <header> </header>
             </header>
             <nav> </nav>
             <article> </article>
            <footer> </footer>
      </body>
</html>

HTML4 Structure

<html>
       <head>
             <title>HTML5 basic structure.</title>
       </head>
       <body>
             <div class="header"> </div>
             <div id="new"> </div>
      </body>
 </html>

Difference between ` `, ` ` or ` `

Let's work on this to reduce our items to be differentiated to 2. As concerned with   and <br\> they are the same representation just the gap which has a minor effect on the code output.

` ` 🆚 ` `

Main Language of use :

In XML(Extended Markup Language) all tags can be self-enclosed like this <tag-name \>. That being said   is the syntax for break statement in XHTML and XML.
