Unicode & HTML Codes
If you need to include Greek letters in documents or webpages, you can use their Unicode code points or HTML entities. The table below lists both forms for each letter. For example, the uppercase gamma is U+0393 (Γ) and can also be written as Γ in HTML【359565268256060†L176-L210】.

When writing in HTML, start with an ampersand (&) followed by a pound sign (#) and either the decimal or hexadecimal code, then end with a semicolon; alternatively, use named entities like α. Not all browsers support every named entity, so numeric codes are more reliable.
