Is space legal after angle brackets?

I am creating slicer to deserialize html and xml. The question is, is it legal in any language to put a space after the angle bracket and still consider it a tag? for instance

< div>

Or should I just consider this simple text?

And yes, I tried searching the Internet for this, but even after browsing through w3 I could not determine the explicit answer.

The WHATWG HTML specification indicates that the tag name immediately follows the opening bracket.

The W3C XML specification has the same requirements.

<p           ></p         >
<p
></p>
