Let us look at some of the essential HTML tags. We will look at just enough tags so that we can dive in and create a website.
Essential Tags
The <style>
tag is used for including styles.
The <script>
tag is used for including scripts. We will need JavaScript code as we go along.
The <link>
tag is used for including external stylesheets (we will use this most of the time).
The <h1>
..<h6>
tags are used for adding header tags to a page.
The <div>
tag is used for separating sections on a page. This is a block element (we will see those soon).
The <span>

The <p>
tag is used for separating paragraphs. We will use this quite often.
The <a href="...">
