Now that we are wrapping up our section on HTML, lets review the basic structure of the document and the elements that should populate the HTML page’s head element.
<head>
As a reminder, the first line in your document should be a doctype declaration, in most cases, this should specify that the document is in HTML5.
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
The next line in your document should be the opening <html lang="en">
tag along with the ISO language code.
<head>
Following these, should be the <head>
element. This should contain at a minimum a;
<title>...</title>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<meta name="author" content="">
<meta name="description" content="">
So the basic structure of your document along with metadata should look something like…
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
<head>
<meta charset="utf-8">
<meta name="viewport" content="width=device-width, initial-scale=1">
<meta name="author" content="Michael Musick">
<meta name="description" content="A Basic HTML Template">
<title>Your Site's Title</title>
</head>
<body>
<!-- content -->
</body>
</html>
