HTML Comments
Comments are notes in your code that the browser ignores.
Comments are useful for explaining a section to yourself or teammates, and for temporarily hiding markup while you work.
Writing a Comment
A comment
<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<body>
<!-- This is a comment and won't be shown -->
<p>This paragraph will be shown.</p>
</body>
</html>How They Work
- A comment starts with <!-- and ends with -->.
- Anything between those markers is skipped by the browser.
- Comments can span multiple lines.
Note: Comments are visible to anyone who views your page source, so never put passwords or secrets in them.
