<main>?

The video discusses <header> and <footer> then jumps to <section>... do we not need to declare <main>? Or is it a definition that content between the header and footer is "main"?

You're jumping the gun a bit. Just hold on and "<main>" will be introduced a few videos later.

Thanks Steven! The <main> designation was taught in the "Intro to HTML and CSS course" and so I just wanted to make sure... thanks for the quick response
