documents and display them as web pages. The browser does not display the HTML tags,
but uses the tags to
interpret the content of the page:
<html>
<body>
<h1>My First Heading</h1>
<p>My first paragraph</p>
</body>
</html>

content
- The text between <h1> and </h1> is displayed as a heading
- The text between <p> and </p> is displayed as a paragraph
