tag-self-close

Self-closing tags, also known as void elements, are HTML elements that do not require a separate closing tag. These tags are self-contained and are typically used for elements that do not have any content between an opening and closing tag. Self-closing tags help keep the HTML structure clean and concise. This rule is especially relevant for XHTML or projects requiring strict HTML syntax.
