👉 Href, or "Hyperlink Reference," is a crucial component in web development and HTML (HyperText Markup Language) that specifies the URL (Uniform Resource Locator) of a hyperlink within an HTML document. It allows users to navigate from one webpage to another by clicking on a hyperlink, which is typically created using an anchor tag () in HTML. The href attribute within this tag provides the destination URL, enabling browsers to load and display the linked content. For example, Visit Example.com creates a hyperlink that directs users to the specified webpage. Hrefs can include additional attributes like target (to specify where the link opens in the browser) and rel (for reloading resources), enhancing their functionality and flexibility in web design.
