What are HTML Entities?
HTML entities are special codes used to display reserved characters, special characters, and characters that cannot be easily typed on a keyboard in HTML documents. They ensure that browsers interpret characters correctly and display them properly.

When to Use HTML Entities
HTML entities are essential for displaying HTML/XML code in web pages, preventing XSS attacks by escaping user input, showing special symbols and Unicode characters, ensuring proper display across different browsers, including reserved HTML characters in content, email template compatibility, internationalization and character encoding, and mathematical and scientific notation. They ensure that browsers interpret characters correctly and display them properly regardless of the document's character encoding.
