About
Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) is a markup language used to create web pages and is the de facto standard for documents displayed in web browsers.
It defines the structure of web content using elements for text, links, images, forms, tables, and embedded media, organizes documents into a hierarchical DOM, and enables hyperlinking between pages, which is a fundamental mechanism of the World Wide Web.
Onion sites are websites that use the .onion top-level domain and are only accessible through Tor, a decentralized anonymity network that relays traffic to hide the IP addresses of both visitors and hosts.
They have self-authenticating addresses derived from the server's cryptographic keys, provide end-to-end encryption and traffic authentication, and require no registration or approval from a central authority.
