Answer 5

😄 Jeff's JK 😄 well this isn't a full correct answer but you can understand by this
Html5 tags are generally templates their style can be read by web browser

For example if you use bootstrap with some class name you can create beautiful cards but you have to install bootstrap or add a cdn so that browser read and render your html

So h1 tag font size is already set so it renders h1 as big and h6 as small it is like to make things sensable h1 is biggest and h6 is small
And you can change that just create a css variable and set your font size

By css you can change font sizes

Answer 9

ChillPill did they borrow the 6 sizes from MS Word, or did it happen the other way round?

Answer 10

Apparently as HTML was based on SGML and SGML had 6 heading types, HTML also used 6.

but no idea why SGML used 6.

Seems like most academic/research style manuals used 5 heading levels at the time and they thought that an extra one might be needed in the digital world.

Answer 11

You want h6 to be the biggest and h1 the smallest?

Answer 12

And thank you for the answer Alphin K Sajan and Atul ...

Answer 13

Wow...
This is the real corect answer...
😊😊Thank you Atul😊😊

Answer 14

I think the reason why the number 1 in the biggest heading and the number 6 in the smallest heading because I think we count by 1, 2, 3s, not 3, 2, 1s! (Except when it is New Year's Eve which it is NOW!)

Edit: (I edited some grammar.) Also, HAPPY NEW YEAR! 🎆🎆🎆🎆🎆🎆🎆🎆🎆🎆🎆🎆

Answer 15

Because according to rule 1 is always given more priority then other numbers.

So h1 is biggest
