For me HTML is a declarative programming language with a very small feature set. Many people disagree with me and I’m ok with that.

The argument of “it’s a mark up language” tends to not hold weight for me as when I ask people why they say “because it’s in the name” - which, for me, misses that HTML is considerably more developed now than when it was named and should be measured on the current feature set.

It’s not a hill I’d want to die on though so really, it doesn’t matter.
