What are some examples of semantic elements in HTML5?

Semantic elements in HTML5 are designed to clearly describe their meaning both to the browser and the developer. Here are some examples:

1. <header>: Represents the header of a section or page, typically containing introductory content or navigation links.
2. <nav>: Defines a set of navigation links.
3. <main>: Specifies the main content of a document.
4. <section>: Represents a generic section of a document, typically with a heading.
5. <article>: Defines independent, self-contained content that could be distributed independently, such as a blog post or news article.
6. <aside>: Contains content that is tangentially related to the content around it, often used for sidebars.
7. <footer>: Represents the footer of a section or page, typically containing information about the author, copyright, or links to related documents.
8. <figure>: Specifies content, like images, diagrams, or code snippets, that is referenced in the main content.
9. <figcaption>: Provides a caption for the <figure> element.
10. <time>: Represents a specific period in time.

Using these semantic elements improves the accessibility and readability of your HTML code, making it easier for both humans and machines to understand the structure and content of your web pages¹²³.

Do you have a specific project in mind where you want to use these elements?
