Build a List of Major Web Browsers with HTML

After two heavy theory modules, the author dove back into a freeCodeCamp workshop that supplies a bare‑bones HTML boilerplate. The task: create a page titled “List of Major Web Browsers” and populate it with semantic markup. Starting from an empty `<body>`, the exercise forces learners to apply core HTML concepts.

Using description list elements, the author added a `<h1>` header then a `<dl>` containing `<dt>` and `<dd>` pairs for each browser. Entries include Google Chrome (released 2008), Firefox by the Mozilla Corporation (2004), Safari from Apple, Brave (Chromium‑based, 2016) and Arc by The Browser Company (2023). The final markup renders a clean, accessible list.

Practicing semantic tags reinforces accessibility and prepares learners for later modules on text and time elements. By mastering `<dl>` structures, developers gain a reusable pattern for definition‑style content. The author plans to tackle a “Job Tips” page next, signaling a progression from static lists toward interactive, real‑world web projects.
