There are many software applications that assist you in creating crazy, sexy, cool web pages with just a “point and click,” but HTML (hypertext markup language) is at the heart of it all. HTML is a set of tags and rules that allow web browsers to display content as you wish it to be seen. Below is content presented in HTML:

<li>item 1</li>
<li>item 2</li>
<li>item 3</li>
</ul>
</body>
</html>
