Advantages and Disadvantages of HTML

points about HTML:

HTML is used to create webpages.

HTML used many tags to make a webpage. So it is a tag based language.

The tags of HTML are surrounded by angular bracket.

It can use wide ranges of colors,objects and layouts.

Very useful for beginners in web designing field.

Advantages of HTML:

• First advantage it is widely used.
• Every browser supports HTML language.
• Easy to learn and use.
• It is by default in every windows so you don't need to purchase extra software.

• HTML is the basic language to learn for web technologies.
• It is quite easy language to learn.
• Even for learning javascript, like for integrating javascript into html, we need to know some basics of html. So learning HTML is the basic thing to do,If we want to learn web technologies.
• One more advantage is we can integrate many languages with HTML. Some of them are PHP, java scripts like node js and many more.

• HTML is easy enough to write
• HTML is that it is easy to code.
• HTML also allows the use of templates, which makes designing a webpage easy.
• Very useful for beginners in web designing field.

• Its plain text so is easy to edit. 
• Its also fast to download (text is highly compressible). 
• Is very easy to learn. 
• Its now a standard. 
• Its supported by most browsers across most if not all platforms. 
• Simple to edit, only requires a text editor. 
• Can be easily edited with WYSIWYG editors (no coding required) 
• Can be used to present just about any kind of data. 
• Tags can be used very loosely (i.e. used to be able to omit end tags etc).

Disadvantages of HTML:

• It can create only static and plain pages so if we need dynamic pages then HTML
• is not useful.
• Need to write lot of code for making simple webpage.
• Security features are not good in HTML.
• If we need to write long code for making a webpage then it produces some complexity.

• The main dis-advantage of using html is that it is not responsive. Just using the tags of HTML will not be useful to make a complete website. Even If you want to build a static website, this HTML will not be much effective because it will not be fit to any type of screen resolution(NOT RESPONSIVE).

• So for this case we are using BOOTSTRAP to make our website responsive.

• Here we get one more advantage, that even for using BOOTSTRAP we need to learn HTML.

• According to my knowledge, these were the advantages and dis-advantages of using HTML.

• Errors can be costly.
• The time it takes to choose the color scheme of a page and to create lists, tables and forms.
• It can create only static and plain pages so if we need dynamic pages then HTML is not useful.
• Need to write lot of code for making simple webpage.

• It is static needs to be manually updated or needs some scripting support to change it in some way. 
• Isn't rendered correctly in all browsers.
• Isn't really as flexible as other standards or technologies.
• Its not centralized (all pages must be edited individually). 
• Very limited styling capabilities. 
• Its essentially massively outdated (xhtml and xml suite of standards). 
• Different vendors added (mostly Microsoft early on) their own custom tags that aren't widely supported if at all by most browsers (e.g. marquee tag).
