What is a .html file?

HTML (HyperText Markup Language) is the structural markup language of the web, using nested tags to define document content, semantics, and links. It is typically paired with CSS for presentation and JavaScript for behavior. It is the foundational format rendered by browsers.

How to use this file

Use an example HTML file to test parsers, DOM construction, sanitization of untrusted markup, and rendering or scraping pipelines.
