The Hypertext Markup Language is a common code system created by Tim Burners-Lee to render documents over the Internet. It was a primary part of the W3 Project. Originally based off SGML, HTML v5 removed the "esoteric" SGML code deceleration, making it simpler.


History

Tim Burners-Lee was working at CERN (kinda like the German Skynet, mixed with MIT, and a little bit of sci-fi), he noticed that the method in which they were transferring documents was abysmal. He then crated a new transfer system, allowing plain-text documents to be transfered. He then noticed that plain-text was shit for what they were doing. So then he created HTML 1. Then HTML2. Then HTML3. Then HTML4. Then HTML4.01. HTML 4.01 was finalized in 1997, and became the universal standard until 2014, when HTML5 became public.

How it works

<nowiki> <!DOCTYPE html>

<html lang="en_us">

<head>

<meta charset="UTF-8/>

<title>Example Page</title>

</head>

<body>

<header>

Example page!

</header>

<main>

<section>

My First Section

<article>

<aside>

<figure>

<img src="/assets/example.png" alt="This is fallback text for a picture"/>

<figcaption>Fig. 1: an example photograph</figcaption>

A great day to code

This is a great sample of an html code. I love it so much, and I just <address>©2015 <a href="//choco.herobo.com/">Chocolate Chip Computing</a></address> </footer> </body> </html> This is a very basic example. To actually make a page, you need much more than basic HTML. You need CSS, and a lot of other stuff, like (maybe) JavaScript.
