#HTML (HyperText Markup Language)
Most people confuse it as a programming language. while it is just a markup for a text on a web browser. HTML is also known as a skeleton of a website because every website was first coded by it. One can insert images and videos through HTML in their website. Though the most popular one is HTML5, there were previous versions of it which no one uses anymore.
#HTML elements are delineated by tags, written using angle brackets. Tags such as <img /> and <input /> directly introduce content into the page. Other tags such as <p> surround and provide information about document text and may include other tags as sub-elements. Browsers do not display the HTML tags, but use them to interpret the content of the page. For example if i say <p>Programming languages</p> the output on the web browser will only be "Programming languages"
To get started with HTML, you are going to need two things.
1. A web browser
2. A text editor


You can use any browser or text editor you want. But just a little heads up, Internet Explorer is the slowest browser and we wouldn't recommend it. we will try to post a sublime text editor and a chrome browser, which are the best for learning HTML.
So if you are all set up with the materials you need. let us get to creating the file. it is an easy process.
1.right click on the place you want to create the file.
2. click text document
3. rename it as any name you want but remember to end the name with the .html extension. For example if you name it "index". The file name should be "index.html"
4. right click on the file and open it with sublime text editor or whichever editor you are using
5. open the file again using the browser you are using

Stay tuned because the next part is the fun and the coding part..and more importantly the first step to become a professional web programmer
