<> </>
structure
like for a paragraph tag
<p> Your text here </p>
there are some instances where there is just a single tag like link or meta
<link href="" rel="" type"" />
<meta http-equiv="Content-Type" content="text/html"; charset="UTF-8" />
Hope that answers your question, if not please be more specific

5,175 PointsHey Jakub, you type closing tags by typing a forward slash before the tag in the brackets. It looks like this: </div> or </body> Just remember, some tags are self closing tags, meaning that they don't need a closing tag, only the opening tag. They look like this: <img>
Hope this helped!
