HTML Tag: pre

The HTML Tag: pre is a block-level element that is used to define preformatted text. This tag is used to display text in a fixed-width font, and it preserves both spaces and line breaks. The pre tag is often used to display code snippets, ASCII art, or any other text that requires a fixed-width font.

The pre tag is often used in conjunction with the code tag to display code snippets. The code tag is used to define a piece of computer code, and the pre tag is used to display that code in a fixed-width font. This makes it easier for users to read and understand the code.

The pre tag can also be used to display ASCII art. ASCII art is a form of art that is created using the characters on a keyboard. The pre tag is used to display ASCII art in a fixed-width font, which preserves the spacing and alignment of the characters.

Here are some examples of how the pre tag can be used:


// This is a code snippet
function helloWorld() {
  console.log("Hello, world!");
}


// This is some ASCII art
   _____
 /       \
|   ___   |
|  |   |  |
|  |___|  |
|         |
 \_______/

In both of these examples, the pre tag is used to display text in a fixed-width font. This makes it easier for users to read and understand the code or ASCII art.
