<!DOCTYPE html>
The second is to write the "root" element of a page
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
</html>
And so on, there is 6 steps ;)

The task is not to write content, but to set the structure of the document. When it's not asked to write content, it's better to not do it (on challenges) because it can lead to a bummer when your structure is good.
