I know most of you know the markups but most, including me, had problems learning them. This will be a simple tutorial regarding that!

1 - <b> Text </b>
This will make your text bold.
Example :
Hi

2 - <em> Text </em> or * Text *
This will make your text italic.
Example:
Hi

3 - <blockquote> Text <blockquote>
Doing this will put your text into a block quote.
Example:

Hi

4 - [Text](URL)
Doing this will make the link not be seen, instead being able to put it on a text.
Example:
Hi ← Leads to Roblox Home Btw.

5 - <ruby> Text 1 <rt> Text 2 </rt> </ruby>
Puts a text above the text. It is smaller than the original text. Meant to be used for pronounciations of words but yeah.

Example:
Text 1 Text 2

6 - Text1 <br> Text2
It skips the text to the other line.
Example:
Text1
Text2

7 - <mark> Text </mark>
Marks the text, Mostly used to mark important parts.
Example:
Hi Everyone

8 - <s> Text </s>
Puts a strike/line on your text.
Example:
Text

9 - <hr>
This puts a line through the page. Usefull to actually keep things orginized.
Example:

10 - <details> <summary> Text1 </summary> Text2 </details>
This is used most of the time by alot of other posts. It creates a section where you can click to open.
Example:

Text1 Text2
* Note : You can use markups inside details.

11 - <table>
Ok so this one is bit more hard to understand than the ones above. It creates a table and uses other markups to make it stand out.

  • <td>
    This creates a cell.

  • <tr>
    This Creates a row

Example 1:

<table>
       <tr>
         <td>
          hi there
         </td>
       </tr>
</table>

Result:

hi there

Example 2:

<table>
       <tr>
         Row 1         
       <td>
          Row 2
       </td>
       </tr>
</table>

Result:

Row 1
Row 2
The ETC things;
Putting < and - together will result in <- (An Arrow). Same thing goes for other side.
Ill update this time to time, but im too tired to go on right now


Remember that this post is meant to give an idea of how HTML Markup works for beginners. Just because you know them doesnt makes the post useless.
