HTML

HTML (Hypertext Markup Language) is one of the core technologies for building web pages. It usually provides the structure of a web page, while CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) is responsible for the layout – for a variety of devices.

HTML enables publishers to

  • publish online documents with headings, text, tables, lists, photos, etc.
  • retrieve online information via hypertext links, at the click of a button
  • design forms for conducting transactions with remote services, for use in information searches, making reservations, ordering products, etc.
  • include spread-sheets, video clips, sound clips, and other applications directly in their documents.

Using HTML, developers can describe the structure of a webpage using markup. The elements of the language label pieces of content such as “paragraph”, “list”, “table” and so on.

Although native mobile apps are built using completely different languages, developers with a basic knowledge of HTML, CSS and JavaScript can also build mobile applications using mobile frameworks.
