HTML Comment Tag

Definition

A  Tag, otherwise known as the comment tag, is used to insert comments in your code. Comments inserted this way are hidden, and do not show to your users.

Example

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
    <title>HTML Title Element</title>
</head>
<body>
    <h1>Displayed Page Title</h1>
    <p>The main content of your page goes here.</p>
<!-- This is a comment that is only visible in the source code. -->
</body>
</html>

Usage

The comment tag is used to add comments to your code, such as explanations or adding TODO items. This helps you understand your code at a later date.
Comments do not nest, so you cannot put a comment inside another comment.

Attributes

The Anchor tag does not support any attributes, including the Global Attributes and Event Attributes.

Best Practices

Single-line Comments should be on one line with the text inside surrounded by spaces.
```

```
Multi-line Comments should start and end on their own line. The comment text should not be indented..
```

```
Closing Tag Comments are used to mark the closing of a tag. They should include the class or ID name.
```
<div id="section-wrapper">
	...
</div>
```
Sensitive Information should not be inserted into comments as it is visible to anyone who inspects the source code.
```

```
