# The audio Tag

The `<audio>` tag allows you to play audio files like mp3, wav, etc., on a webpage.

```html title="Using the audio Tag"
<audio controls>
  <source src="your-audio.mp3" type="audio/mp3" />
  Your browser does not support the audio element.
</audio>
```

<br />

## Key Attributes

- `controls`: Displays the controls for play, pause, volume, etc.

- `<source>`: Specifies the path and type of the audio file

<br />

## Considerations When Using `<audio>` Tag

1. `Alternative Text`: The text written between the audio tags defines what will be shown in browsers that do not support the audio element.

2. `File Size`: Large audio files can affect the loading time of webpages. Therefore, it is recommended to use smaller audio files when possible.

The `<audio>` tag is used to embed audio files into a web page. By using this tag, you can provide functionality for playing audio directly in the browser.
