</body>

</html>


Explanation:


  • html → root of the webpage
  • head → contains title and meta info
  • body → contains content visible to users

1. The browser reads the HTML file

2. It understands the tags

3. It converts them into a visible webpage

Think of HTML like a "house structure (skeleton)".

  • HTML → structure of the house

  • JavaScript → functionality (actions)

Without HTML, a website cannot exist.
