Since 2004, the Web Hypertext Application Technology Working Group (WHATWG) has been working on the next generation of HTML, the markup that makes up web documents.
In this talk, we will dive into some of the new elements defined by HTML5, see examples of how behavior that used to require third party software can now be implemented using web standards, discuss the evolution of HTML, and explore the options of developing fully featured applications on top of the web application stack that is currently being formed.
