Semantic elements in HTML are those that describe the content it contains. For example a <section> and <article> describe parts of a web page in a way that <div> does not. Semantic HTML aids web development and is important for accessibility.
you will link all your assignments and exercises from here.
in a future exercise you will update this page with your design from figma
due: like now!! today!! ASAP.
