# Comments — HTML

Source: https://www.geekswithgeeks.com/en/html/html-comments

> Notes in the source that browsers ignore.

## Comment syntax

Anything between `<!--` and `-->` is invisible on the rendered page.

```html
<!-- This is a comment, it won't be shown -->
<p>Visible text.</p>
```

## Not for secrets

Comments are invisible on-screen but still sit in the page source — anyone can view them, so never hide passwords or secrets there.
