How to include a comment into your code
Comments are written in HTML using the following syntax: <!-- comment -->
HyperText

Metadata
Metadata is information about the page that isn't displayed directly on the web page.
Self-Closing Elements
Single-closing tags cannot enclose raw text or other elements
Whitespace
Whitespace between HTML elements helps make code easier to read while not changing how elements appear in the browser
<br /> *explain why there isn't a closing tag
The line break element <br /> is one example of a self-closing tag. You can use it anywhere within your HTML code. The result is a line break in the browser.
<p></p>
The HTML <p> element represents a paragraph of text.
Indentation
Indentation also helps make code easier to read. It makes parent-child relationships visible
