Why Use HTML5

Written by _AB on 13/06/2012. Posted in HTML, HTML5

HTML5The World Wide Web is changing every moment now days. New versions of browsers like Chrome and FireFox are being published every week rather than a month or year. To web developers who want to stay in market and up to date, now learning html5 is essential. Moreover, after looking at the latest job trends I found that html5 development and Mobile application development are two most fast growing job trends.

Current version of HTML5 offers rarely available tools in html like geoloca-tion or the History API. In next few html5 tutorial will try to cover following unique features of HTML web development.

. Canvas drawing element in HTML5
. Managing Video and Audio elements
.Page editing online and spell checking
. Extensive use of drog and drop in web applications
. HTML5 Forms, making them more user friendly
. Semantic understanding of html5 elements like section, footer, header and article

Additionally following benefits of html5 spec will also be achieved in brief,
Web Open Font Format (WOFF) web fonts

. Microformats and Microdata
. WebSockets
. Web Workers
. Files API
. Web Storage
. Offline Web Applications API
. History API
. Geolocation

In some ways, writing websites for mobile devices is a lot easier than it used to be. Although a lot more devices are out there, including smartphones and not-so-smart phones, tablets, internet TV devices, and even some picture frames, the devices are converging in what HTML5 features they support, and even in their sizes and shap (to some extent).

When you’re creating a mobile website, the first thing to remember is that a mobile website is just a website. The best websites are built for every browser and operating system, or as many as possible.
