Keynote at the HTML5DevConf 2014 in San Francisco, explaining how many of the outreach we do these days looks a lot like sales pitches in the mid-noughties. They will make more sense once the video is out.

Runs for 800 years without
supervision and repairs
itself
Gets shut down remotely
and has no spare parts.

24. WHAT WAS HTML5 MEANT
TO DO DIFFERENTLY?

25. XHTML PUNISHED USERS FOR OUR MISTAKES

26. XHTML WASN’T “APP READY”
• focused: fullscreen with a simple interface
• rich in interaction: touch enabled app interaction elements
• mobile: works offline
• integrated: works with the OS and has hardware access
• responsive and fast: runs smooth, can be killed without taking down the
rest of the OS

27. NOW WE HAVE THAT!
• focused: fullscreen APIs, manifest files.
• rich in interaction: new input types
• mobile: appcache, localStorage, indexedDB/WebSQL
• integrated: WebAPIs, Open Web Apps
• responsive and fast: too much to mention.

28. BEST FOOT FORWARD!

29. DEAD LINKS AND BROKEN BUTTONS

30. SHODDY ERROR HANDLING / A11Y

31. WE CAN DO MUCH BETTER!

32. WE GET MUCH MORE CONTROL
