HTML stands for Hyper Text Markup Language. Let’s decode the meaning of Hyper Text Markup Language:
Hyper Text: Hyper Text allows the user to move around the web (one page to other) using the hyper links.
Markup Language: HTML is called markup language because it comprises of a set of markup tags where each tag signifies a different meaning and in simple terms it tells the browser what exactly they should do with these markup tags.
Pretty simple eh ?Well, it’s even simpler to get started with HTML coding, so let’s get started with HTML coding.
I know what you are thinking now, what’s the meaning of the code you just wrote, well don’t worry we’ll discuss this program right here and decode the meaning of everything we just wrote.
<!DOCTYPE> declaration helps the browser to display a web page correctly.It defines which version of HTML your document is using.Doctype declaration is different for different versions of HTML.For html5 its declared as <!doctype html>
By now you have a fair understanding of basic HTML tags.
You might have observed each tag in HTML is starting with angular bracket and ending with an angular bracket along with a forward slash , well that is called start tag(<start>) and end tag (</start>) in HTML.
Do you have any idea what’s an HTML Element ? If yes, then you are going great buddy,If No, don’t worry that’s why I am here.
HTML Elements are something which has a start tag , an end tag and some content between the start tag and the end tag.For example:<p> this is a paragraph </p> is a html element.
Apart from tags mentioned above there are many more things that we have in a html document like we can add an image to our web page with following HTML tag:
<img src=”imagename” >
We can add a hyperlink to our web page with the following tag:
<a href=”url” >link text </a> where a is called anchor tag.
You can observe we have few additional things like src and href in the start tag of above HTML elements. This additional information in a HTML start tag is called attribute. An attribute provides additional information about an HTML tag.
Some other important features of HTML are:
- HTML Style attribute
- HTML block
- HTML classes
- HTML layouts
- HTML forms
- HTML iframes
I would like you guys to explore above terms on your own and find out what exactly they are.
Now let’s talk about the most in demand stuff in HTML i.e HTML5.
Yeah, you got me right statistics suggests 78.6 % of HTML developers use HTML5 .
Now again that’s a huge percentage. Why do you think HTML5 is so incredibly popular?
Well, there is not just one but many good reasons for that and I will discuss few of them with you now.
WHY HTML5 is in demand?
1)HTML5 helps to make our web page more dynamic and interactive with less effort:
It has introduced many new tags like <header>, <footer>, <nav>, <article> which tells the browser what exactly we want to display in our web page and save HTML developers from using many <div> tags. It helps the web developers to write cleaner and more effective code.Html5 online classes in Bangalore,Hubli,Belgaum.
2) One of the coolest features of html5 is local web storage:
With local storage, Html5 can store very large amount of data locally(at least 5 MB) without affecting the website performance. Before html5 , application data had to be stored in cookies which was transferred to the server but all thanks to html5’s local data storage which is more secure and the information are never transferred to the server

3)Game Development :
Using <canvas> tag you can develop great games with html5.
4)<Audio> and <Video> tag :
Before html5’s <audio> and <video> tag it was quite a nightmare to play audio/video files in web pages , again html5 came to rescue of web developers and now displaying a media file in web pages is as easy as the 1st html code you wrote before some time.
5)html5 is mobile ready:
Now it’s not new to you that mobile technology is taking over the world and every website we design should be mobile friendly to attract the maximum number of users, with html5 you don’t need to worry as mobile browsers have fully adopted html5 and designing a mobile friendly application with html5 is a like a cakewalk .
Last but not the least I want to tell you guys, this blog was just for a fair understanding of HTML/HTML5.It was kind of warm up for you guys, now you can go ahead and deep dive in HTML learning and coding.
