Everything is HTML is described through elements. This includes the larger structure of the main document.

Document Type

Root Element

<html>...</html> The Root element of an HTML document contains all other elements and text. This element is necessary and should always be placed outside of all content.

Head Element

<head>...</head> The head element is a container for processing information and document metadata. This will include elements that may link to other files, hold the author information, and pass the name of the page to the processor.

Body Element

<body>...</body> The body element is a container for all of the content and data that is intended to be displayed on a browser’s page.
