Permitted content Flow content.
Tag omission None; both the starting and ending tags are mandatory.

Browser compatibility

The <main> element is widely supported. For Internet Explorer 11 and below, it is suggested that an aria role of "main" be added to the <main> element to ensure it is accessible (screen readers like JAWS, used in combination with older versions of Internet Explorer will be able to understand the semantic meaning of the <main> element once this role attribute is included).
