In this article, I'll show you 5 rare HTML Tags that probably you have never heard of. While they might be less familiar to you but they're still quite useful and you can create more structurally-sound web applications with the help of them.
1- DATALIST
This tag specifies a list of predefined options for an INPUT element.

2- TEMPLATE
Use this tag to hide some content when the page loads. It can be made visible later using JavaScript.

3- METER

4- TIME
This tag defines a specific or human-readable time. It helps search engines to produce smarter search results.

5- OPTGROUP
