Aprenda Basic Structure of an HTML Document

A typical HTML document looks like this:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
  <head>
    <meta charset="UTF-8" />
    <title>Title of the Document</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <!-- Content goes here -->
  </body>
</html>

Note

No worries, you will explore each aspect in depth in the upcoming chapters. For now, look and get familiar with the visual appearance of HTML.

Structure brief summary

<!DOCTYPE html>: tells the browser which version of HTML the document is using. In this case, it's HTML5, the latest version of HTML;
<html>: is the root element of the HTML document. All other elements are contained within this element;
<head>: contains meta-information about the document, such as the character encoding (<meta charset="UTF-8">) which ensures that special characters are displayed correctly, and the document title (<title>) which appears in the browser's title bar or tab;
<title>: sets the title of the document, which is displayed in the browser's title bar or tab;
<body>: is where the web page's main content goes. You'll place text, images, links, forms, and other elements inside the <body> element. This is what users will see and interact with when they visit your web page.
