- HTML documents must start with a document type declaration: <!DOCTYPE html>
- The HTML document itself begins with <html> and ends with </html>.

<head>
<title>Page Title</title>

<body>
<h1>My Heading</h1>

</html>
- The <!DOCTYPE html> declaration defines that this document is an HTML5 document
- The <html> element is the root element of an HTML page
- The <head> element contains the title of the document and other information that is not displayed on the web page:
- The <title> element specifies a title for the HTML page (which is shown in the browser’s title bar or in the page’s tab)
- The <body> element defines the document’s body and is a container for all the visible contents, such as headings, paragraphs, images, hyperlinks, tables, lists, etc.
The <h1> element defines a large heading
