In this lesson
Tags are the labels that tell the browser what each piece of content is: a heading, a paragraph, a link. Once you can read them, you can read any web page.
By the end of this lesson you will have a small “About me” page that you wrote yourself.
Try it yourself
Copy this, run it, then change one thing and run it again. That is how it sticks.
<h1>About me</h1>
<p>I am learning to code, one small step at a time.</p>
<h2>Things I like</h2>
<p>Trees, rivers and good coffee.</p>
