What is HTML 5?

HTML5 is a markup language used for structuring and presenting content for the World Wide Web and a core technology of the Internet. It is the fifth revision of the HTML standard and, as of December 2012, is a candidate recommendation of the World Wide Web Consortium.

The declaration which is required:-
<!DOCTYPE html> 

Above declaration  represents that the page is in HTML5.

Below is the simple example:
<!doctype html>

<html>

<head>
All the js and css files are included in this section.
</head>

<body>
content of the page is in this section
</body>

</html>

But all major browsers (Safari, Chrome, Firefox, Opera, Internet Explorer) continue to add new HTML5 features to their latest versions.

Note:-The first web browser, Mosaic, was introduced in 1993. A year later Netscape, based on Mosaic, was introduced and the net began to become popular. HTML was used in both browsers, but there was no "standard" HTML until the introduction of HTML 2.0.

HTML 2.0 was first published in 1995. HTML 3.0 was published two years later and 4.01 two years after that.
