📘Easy summary
Web development is creating websites and web apps. Front-end: what users see (HTML, CSS, JavaScript); back-end: servers, databases, application logic. HTML (HyperText Markup Language, Tim Berners-Lee 1991) structures web pages. Development environment: a text/code editor (Notepad, VS Code, Sublime), a web browser (Chrome, Firefox) with developer tools, optionally live-server extension and Git. Basic structure: <!DOCTYPE html> <html> <head> (metadata, <title>, CSS links — not shown on page) </head> <body> (visible content) </body> </html>. Save as index.html and open in browser.
⭐Key points
- head = metadata; body = content.
