1
Create the basic HTML structure
Create a basic HTML5 skeleton with lang="en", charset="UTF-8", and a viewport meta tag. Inside the <body>, add a <main> element containing an <h1> with the text "Welcome to My Blog" and a <p> with the text "This is a sample paragraph to demonstrate responsive typography."
