Web Technologies

Basics

HTML

HyperText Markup Language is the language used to describe and define the content of a Web page in a well-structured format.

CSS

Cascading Style Sheets are used to describe the appearance of Web content.

Scripting

JavaScript

JavaScript is the programming language that runs in the browser, which is used to build advanced interactive Web sites and applications for secure browser execution.

Web APIs

Reference material for each of the individual APIs that comprise the Web's powerful scriptability, including the DOM and all of the related APIs and interfaces you can use to build Web content and apps.

• Web API interface reference — all interfaces, arranged alphabetically.
• The WebAPI page lists device-access APIs and other APIs useful for applications.

Graphics

SVG

Scalable Vector Graphics let you describe images as sets of vectors (lines) and shapes in order to allow them to scale smoothly regardless of the size at which they're drawn.

WebGL

WebGL brings 3D graphics to the Web by introducing an API that closely conforms to OpenGL ES 2.0, which can be used in HTML <canvas> elements.

Other

MathML

Mathematical Markup Language makes it possible to display complex mathematical equations and syntax.
