At 1:41 of the video, Guil wrapped the articles section of the page as the header, why did he put the <header> tag belo

  1. At 1:41 part of the video, Guil wanted the Articles section of the page as the header, why did he put the <header> tag below the <article> tag? Will it matter if I put the <header> tag before the <article> tag? Because after all, the goal is to emphasize that the Articles section are the header section of the page.

  2. Also per article, he wrapped each one of them in <header> </header> tags? Is it not redundant? Can we just wrap the whole articles with one opening header and one closing header tags, to indicate that these articles are header section?

There are two common uses for "header'. For the entire page, and for an article. Each article can have its own "header", which would normally contain a title and/or attribution.

That's the kind of header being added in the video.
