HTML itself is not a static website but rather a markup language used to structure and format content on web pages. However, HTML is a fundamental building block of static websites. When you create web pages using HTML, you’re defining the structure, layout, and content of those pages.
A static website is composed of HTML files that define the structure of the pages, along with CSS files that control the styling. These HTML and CSS files are typically hosted on a web server and delivered to users’ browsers when they access the website. The content on a static website doesn’t change unless you manually update the HTML and CSS code.
So, while HTML is a crucial component of static websites, a complete static website includes more than just HTML; it includes all the necessary files and assets (like images, CSS, and potentially JavaScript) to display the web pages properly.
