<p>
A paragraph — the workhorse block of prose.
Baseline: Widely available · Grouping content
When to use it
For every run of flowing text; keep one idea per paragraph.
When not to
No block content inside it (lists, figures, divs auto-close it and invalidate the document), and never use empty p elements for spacing.
Example
Markup is meaning; styling is skin.
