| Session | Length | Topics | |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1st Session | 1 hour | An Introduction to HTML5 Jeremy Keith Learn about the history of HTML5 and the design principles that drive its development. Find out why HTML5 is more of an evolution than a revolution. Come to grips with the new structural elements and figure out a strategy for migrating to HTML5 today. |
|
| 2nd Session | 1 hour | HTML5 Canvas, Video & Forms Bruce Lawson We love HTML, and now it loves us back: some aspects of HTML5 are invisible to the end user, and therefore make their lives easier as they don't get in the way — no more "please download a new version of the plugin" message, for example. We'll have a look at the power of <canvas> and how to add native video to your pages. Other aspects of HTML5 -like the new webforms- offer a consistent user experience across sites, while making it much simpler for the developer (that's you!) to write form validation. We look in depth at the new form markup. |
|
| 3rd Session | 1 hour | HTML5 Web Sockets, Web Workers, and Geolocation Unleashed! Peter Lubbers In this action-packed session, Peter Lubbers, co-author of the book Pro HTML5 Programming, will show you how to unleash the power of HTML5 Programming in your Web Applications. He will cover the use of the following three new HTML5 APIs: Web Sockets, Web Workers and Geolocation. Peter will use practical, real-life examples and bring you up-to-speed, fast, so you can immediately start using HTML5 features in your own web applications. Additionally, he will cover the available browser support for the different HTML5 APIs. |
|
| 4th Session | 1 hour | HTML5 Storage APIs (Web Storage, Web Databases, Offline Applications) Remy Sharp We'll look at how the HTML5 and related specifications allow us to develop applications that can survive outside of the web. Browsers now offer us simple storage and more complicated SQL based storage and also full offline support which means we can build our apps to be self sufficient when the user is disconnected. This talk will take you through the technology and walk you though some practical code. |
