Creating your first HTML document is a foundational hands-on practice for beginners in web development. This exercise typically involves using a basic text editor to write HTML code, starting with the essential structure: a <!DOCTYPE html> declaration, and including <html>, <head>, and <body> tags. Within the <head>, you add metadata like the title of the webpage using the <title> tag. In the <body>, you can insert content such as headings, paragraphs, and links using tags like <h1>, <p>, and <a>. This practical approach helps learners understand the building blocks of web pages and how different HTML elements work together to create a functional and visually structured document.
