HTML stands for Hyper-Text Markup Language which can't be called a programming language, but it's just a markup language. It's used to structure all the content on the webpage. It used tags to structure a layout.

CSS stands for Cascading Style Sheets. As the name suggests, it's used to style web pages. For example, giving colors to texts, adding hover effects, some animations and aligning items.

I hope that this answer is helpful.

Answer: HTML (the Hypertext Markup Language) and CSS (Cascading Style Sheets) are two of the core technologies for building Web pages. HTML provides the structure of the page, CSS the (visual and aural) layout, for a variety of devices. Along with graphics and scripting, HTML and CSS are the basis of building Web pages and Web Applications.
