What is HTML5?
HTML5 is the latest standard for HTML. The previous version of HTML, HTML 4.01,
came in 1999, and the internet has changed significantly since then. HTML5 was designed
to replace both HTML 4, XHTML, and the HTML DOM Level 2. It was specially designed
to deliver rich content without the need for additional plugins. The current version
delivers everything from animation to graphics, music to movies, and can also be
used to build complicated web applications. HTML5 is also cross-platform. It is
designed to work whether you are using a PC, or a Tablet, a Smartphone, or a Smart
TV.
HTML5 combines with CSS3 and JavaScript to result an optimal, flexible, attractive
and cross-browser design and user experience.
Why CSS3?
Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) are styles that define how to display HTML elements
in a web page.
CSS3 is the latest standard for CSS. CSS3 is completely backwards-compatible with
earlier versions of CSS.
One of the benefits of CSS3 web design is that, though it’s powerful, it’s also
a relatively simple web language. What makes it so simple is that it is split into
logical and user-friendly modules. The most common (and important) CSS3 modules
are: backgrounds and borders, text effects, animations, layouts, and user interface.
Within each of these modules is a set of customizable functions, which allows for
greater flexibility in custom development. providing for the optimum user experience
and a number of immersive elements.
