HTML is a markup language, not a programming language.

HTML is used to define the structure of content.

Our goal is to create a website as a graphical front-end for interacting with our own smart contracts.

A tag is used to wrap some content up as a specific element.

There is an opening and a closing tag to set the extent of a new element. Both have opening and closing angle brackets around the name of the element. The closing tag has a forward slash after the opening bracket.

Attributes contain extra information about the element that you don’t want to appear in the actual content. They are part of the opening tag.

It defines how individual elements are combined to form an entire HTML page. There is a head part and a body part. The latter contains the actual content of the page, the former everything else.

  1. HTML > HyperText Markup Language: it is the code used to outline and structure a web page and its contents.

  2. it is a language that defines the structure of your content. It consists of different elements which you can use to enclose or wrap different parts of the content to make it look or function on a certain way. you can add hyperlinks to other sites and even edit the look of your font.

  3. to help with understanding of front-end systems and how to interact with them.

  4. tags are used to define different parts of the HTML document into things like paragraphs, italics. they consist of opening tag (start of the element) and closing tag (end of element)

  5. -opening tag
    -closing tag
    -content
    -element

  6. Attributes contain extra information about the element that you don’t want to appear in the actual content.

    • <!DOCTYPE html> — doctype. It is a required preamble. In the mists of time, when HTML was young (around 1991/92), doctypes were meant to act as links to a set of rules that the HTML page had to follow to be considered good HTML, which could mean automatic error checking and other useful things. However these days, they don’t do much and are basically just needed to make sure your document behaves correctly. That’s all you need to know for now.
  • <html></html> — the <html> element. This element wraps all the content on the entire page and is sometimes known as the root element.
  • <head></head> — the <head> element. This element acts as a container for all the stuff you want to include on the HTML page that isn’t the content you are showing to your page’s viewers. This includes things like keywords and a page description that you want to appear in search results, CSS to style our content, character set declarations, and more.
  • <meta charset="utf-8"> — This element sets the character set your document should use to UTF-8 which includes most characters from the vast majority of written languages. Essentially, it can now handle any textual content you might put on it. There is no reason not to set this and it can help avoid some problems later on.
  • <title></title> — the <title> element. This sets the title of your page, which is the title that appears in the browser tab the page is loaded in. It is also used to describe the page when you bookmark/favorite it.
  • <body></body> — the <body> element. This contains all the content that you want to show to web users when they visit your page, whether that’s text, images, videos, games, playable audio tracks, or whatever else.

4. What is an HTML tag?
It is a definition to direct the browser to interpret a visual activity.
5. What is the structure of an HTML tag?
An opening < tag > and closing < /tag > are used. Opening tags may have attributes to further define markup.

They are additional properties that further describe the tag. An example would be sizing an image file with certain pixel height and length through the < img src > tag.

  1. HTML is short for Hypertext Markup Language and it is the code that makes up websites.
  2. HTML is used to establish a web structure so that websites are easily usable and readable.
  3. We are learning about HTML because it is the basis of code that makes up the structure of the internet, which blockchains are then built on top of.
  4. HTML tags are coding indicators that are placed before and after a paragraph to establish where any given paragraph begins and ends.
  5. The structure of an HTML opening tag is the letter P between brackets,

    , which is an indicator that a paragraph has started; while the structure of the HTML closing tag is similar except it also includes a slash symbol to indicate that a paragraph has ended;

  6. An attribute is extra information that is included between the HTML tags, but instead of being a part of the paragraph element, the attribute defines the paragraph element; instead of being actual content, an attribute classifies content.
  7. The anatomy of an HTML document consists of: the doctype, which establishes the HTML to its own structural rules; this is then followed by a series of elements, including a header element, a body element, and a root element that wraps it all together. The header element consists of an additional title element which defines the website in search engines, as well as a character element which establishes the text language that can be used within the body element; the body element is then what will be seen by users of the webpage.

1- HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) it’s the code used to structure web pages and its contents.

2- Vid. Supra .

3- Weel, first, it’s a great start up code. It will give us the knowledge of how web pages work (eventually becoming our front end of our Smart Contracts), It’s a stepping stone to get to more specific languages as Solidity, C++ et al., and, I think, will get us in the right frame of mind to become consistent developers.

4- A tag is the name of an element, wrapped in opening and closing angle brackets. The closing tag add a closing slash after the opening angle bracket and before the name of the element.

5- An element consists of an opening Tag + the content + closing Tag.

6- An attribute is extra information that does not appear in the content, but adds a non unique identifier.

7-7- !DOCTYPE html head Body html

Each of them with angle brackets.
