How to use HTML5 Semantic Layout Generator

Click generate, and the tool outputs a full semantic HTML5 page skeleton with header, nav, main, article, aside, section, and footer landmarks.

Frequently asked questions

Why use semantic landmark elements?

Elements like <header>, <nav>, <main> and <footer> describe the role of each region, helping screen readers offer landmark navigation and giving search engines clearer structure than nested divs.

What is the difference between article and section?

An <article> is self-contained and independently distributable, like a blog post. A <section> is a thematic grouping within a document. Use <article> for standalone content and <section> to chunk a page.

Should there be only one main element?

Yes. A page should contain exactly one visible <main> holding its primary content, excluding repeated headers, navigation and footers.
