" right after your DOCTYPE just not valid otherthan it's not making any sense because you don't have an HTML tag yet , i don't want to confuse you more so just forget about the text you have added and try to just add an html oppening and closing tags

The root element (tag) is the one that all of the other elements on the page will go inside.
