“No matter how big the lie; repeat it often enough and the masses

will regard it as the truth.” – John F. Kennedy

MALMBERG | THE TRUTH ABOUT HTML5 | LUNCH & LEARN

“The World is moving to HTML5”

– Steve Jobs, Apple

“The Web has not seen this level of transformation, this level of acceleration, in the past ten years… we're betting big on HTML5”

– Vic Gundotra, VP of Engineering, Google

“If you want to do something universal, there is no question, the

world is going HTML5. That is clear...The world is just pushing down

this HTML5 path and so are we.” – Steve Ballmer, CEO, Microsoft

But what is HTML5?

HTML5: The Buzzword “the collection of new (and not so new) technology that is often downright cool, but has little to do with the HTML5 specification”

– Luke Stevens

But this isn’t HTML5, this is WebGL

“SVG should soon be widespread, and its non-proprietary nature will help to hasten the progress. Flash will continue to be the dominant standard for quite some time because of its large client base. However, SVG is rising quickly. The distribution of the SVG plug-in via browser manufacturers will quickly increase the installed user base, just as it did for Flash. Future versions of various browsers will include SVG viewers as standard, and some already do.”

– SVG, the new Flash - 2002

No HTML5, this is SVG…

Even the HTML5 version of Angry Birds isn’t HTML5. Only works in a single browser.

HTML5: The Specification

“HTML5 is a standard… sort of, it has it’s good and bad parts.”

So, what is HTML5?

“The Good…”

“Whenever a Mac crashes, more often than not it because of Flash” – Steve Jobs

Advantage #1: Less plugins

“Firefox 17 also debuts a new security feature that automatically blocks outdated versions of the most popular Web browser plug-ins -- Adobe's Flash Player and Reader, Microsoft's Silverlight, and Oracle's Java -- from executing content.”

No more Flash for Video Playback

… in most modern browsers, on the desktop… And an alternative for Flash content

“Accessibility is built in from the ground up”

Advantage #2: Accessibility

Subtitles support

Support for virtual keyboards

Advantage #3: Access Device Functionality

Access the Camera

Without a plugin: • Record sound • Analyze sound • Store sound

Access the Microphone

Access the Orientation, Heading and Location

<!DOCTYPE html> <meta charset=utf-8> <title>HTML5</title> <h1>HTML5!</h1>

Advantage #4: Easier Development

Browsers strive to have the best HTML5 support

-‐ Goal is to offer the best support, not to differentiate -‐ Browser Support

Standardized APIs

“Making the Web

Beautiful”

Advantage #5: CSS3

-‐ Support great looking fonts, cross browser -‐ Web Fonts

“Seperate Structure from Style”

CSS Transitions

CSS even supports 3D

Responsive Web Design

“the Bad…”

•  < IE9 •  Performance •  Support APIs •  WebGL

Problem #1: Support on Desktop

“How do you know whether an app is written in HTML5?”

“Open it in IE, if it doesn’t work it’s HTML5”

“.. tools for canvas/html5 development throw us back to the beginning of the web”

- Anonymous

Problem #2: Tool support

Codecs

Problem #3: Multimedia support

Problem #4: Canvas is not Flash

“Just because we have a 2D drawing area with the canvas element, doesn’t mean we must recreate everything on canvas!” - Jos

-‐ that even runs cross platform -‐ But we can create beautiful stuff!

Problem #5: No DRM

“HTML5 needs to include a built-in DRM scheme.”

“… and the Ugly.”

Ugly #1: Support on Mobile Devices “What is going to enable us to deliver the best customer experience on the mobile devices that our customers use?”

“Our view is that HTML5 technologies can deliver as-good-as-native experiences”

“And the lesson we’ve learnt over the last 12 months has been that the cost in time, effort and testing to bring an HTML5 application to a native level of performance seems to be far greater than if the application was built with native technologies from the get-go.”

“Betting on HTML5 was a mistake.” – Mark Zuckenberg

Ugly #2: Browser specific web apps

Blink is “an inclusive open source community” and ”a new rendering engine based on WebKit” that will, over time, “naturally evolve in different directions.”

- Google

Ugly #3: User interaction “To create a good user experience, you need to know who

your users are [...] If you build a user interface for a desktop user […] and give it to a smartphone user, your interface will be a frustration because it's designed for

another screen size, and another input modality.” – Boris Smus

“We have definity shifted from HTML5 to native.”

“…getting that smoothness, we felt like we needed native to really do that well.”

“HTML5 will always be popular, because anything that’s popular will be called HTML5. It’s an exciting time for the web. Hold on tight; it’s going to be one hell of a ride!” – Mark Pilgrim

Ugly #4: What is HTML5??
