If you take a look at your keyboard, you'll see that there’s no key for typing a checkmark.

You could decide to copy the checkmark symbol from the internet and paste it directly into your HTML code, but an easier way to do it is to use the appropriate Unicode character or HTML character entity.

If you are wondering what Unicode and HTML character entities are, they are both a piece of text that represents different emojis, symbols, and characters.

In your web projects, you might want to show a checkmark for the purpose of consent or agreement. So, in this article, I will show you how to use the appropriate Unicode and HTML character entity to bring checkmarks into your web projects. I will also show you 4 other variations of the checkmark symbol.
