Notes
The <head> tag acts as a container for all the unseen information that browsers and search engines need, rather than the content displayed to users. It typically groups <title>, <meta>, <link>, <style>, and <script> tags.
Unlike the <body>, elements placed in the <head> will not render onto the webpage canvas directly.
