There are a few things to know about HTML which stands for Hyper Text Markup Language.
Each thing that makes text do something has "TAGS" attached to it.
Most tags have an "open" and a "close" but a few are by themselves.
Each tag, open or close has < and > characters to start and end them. Some tags openings have optional or mandatory options as well.
The "close" tag is the same the "open" but with a / character.
The tag to create a line break is <br> there is not close tag for it. You can use multiple "breaks" to create blank lines
<br><br><br> creates three blank lines
Paragraph outlines the beginning and ending of a paragraph. It will keep line spacing without having to use "break" until you close it.
<p>Paragraph of text</p> This tag isn't used that much.
Next lesson will be changing the size color of text.
