Everything looks good except you forgot to close the <textarea>
and <button>
tags. HTML tags can be closed by a slash symbol just in front of the second tag name.
Example:
<tagname></tagname>
Every tags in HTML should be closed except few tags which are known as self closing tags like
<img />
I hope it helped.
Happy learning
