HTML vs Other Languages

HTML is not a programming language — it doesn’t perform logic or computation. Instead, it defines the layout and structure of content. It works best when combined with CSS (for styling) and JavaScript (for behavior).

Your First HTML Page

Try writing your first HTML page like this:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
  <title>My First Page</title>
</head>
<body>
  <h1>Hello, HTML!</h1>
  <p>This is my first webpage.</p>
</body>
</html>
