Answer:

Explanation:

The way we do this is through coding. HTML is the go-to programming language that are basically instructions given to the computer explaining what content will go on the web page as well as how it will be organized. HTML tends to go hand-in-hand with CSS, another programming language that focuses on how the content will look, such as color, borders, shading, etc. All with the idea of making the content look nicer. Without these programming languages, it would be impossible for individuals to make webpages.
