description & Usage
To specify the relationship between the current html document and an external resource used in it, we use the <link> tag.
The <link> tag is mostly used for linking to external pages or adding favicons to the reference website.
The <link> tag itself cannot be used alone unless you use the corresponding attribute in your codes.
