The Meta object represents an HTML meta element.
<meta> tags must be placed inside the head section of an HTML document, and they provide metadata about the HTML document.
Meta elements are typically used to specify page description, keywords, author of the document, last modified, and other metadata. Metadata can be used by browsers (e.g. how to display content or reload pages), search engines (e.g. keywords), or other web services.
