HTML 5 and the future

12 years ago

Hi
From my opinion, for Web Development it is good to learn, or start to learn HTML5, CSS3, and JavaScript.
I think that JavaScript is the scripting language that will be very long needed in web pages.

Thanks

I think the future will be all applications will be all online, eliminating desktop apps the only thing you need is a browser. Desktop applications such as document and image processors will be a thing of the past, although the features of web-based apps are still limited, there will come a time that everything will be available online and HTML5 will bring this to us.

The problem with web development is that languages changes rapidly. It is safe to say that in the next 10 years, what you just learned now is already obsolete or at least deprecated.

I would personally stick to one language and master it so that the next version will be easier to adapt with. As with HTML5, it is quite easy. I think it made HTML4 look complex.

I switched to coding with HTML5 a couple of months ago and it is fairly easy and has a huge potential. Unfortunately it isn't fully cross browser compatible yet but that should hopefully change when IE10 arrives.

In conjunction with CSS3 and JQuery you can code pretty awesome sites.

Html5 and Javascript are the primary underlying scripting behind mobile applications. If you want to develop for mobile then learn html5, js and jQuery mobile along with CSS3.

Flash is NOT going away anytime soon but it is true it does not work on many mobile devices.
Html5 is not 100% supported in any browser, IE or other and there are differences between browsers in how parts of html5 work.

Desktop computers are NOT going away either, talk of replacing laptops or desktop computers with tablets or the new hybrid devices is not really accurate. Adding these new devices and relying less on main computer systems is happening it does not REPLACE them. There are things that you just can't do with tablet devices you must have a computer for and that will never change.

If you currently develop with flash and you have Adobe software the current versions allow you to export out in Flash, Html5 and for specific mobile devices all at the same time for the same application.

What you need to focus on when developing for the web is fall back. If a certain feature in whatever technology you are using is not supported then fall back gracefully to something that does work. It is about provding user experience and delivering the content in the way intended. Fall backs may not work exactly as intended but you can get "close enough" and your application or feature wont just not work, there will be something there that presents the information to the end user.

Html5 as a specification is also NOT completed so it is still in development, things will change in the future. Somethings are pretty well solid but others, not yet.

Right now and for at least the next several years there will not be a 100% solution that is cross browser. The best thing to that is libraries like jQuery and jQuery Mobile that handle the cross platform for you to a large extent so you just focus on content and let libraries and api's do the heavy lifting so you don't have to spend all your time coding cross platform.

Steve Jobs and Apple have been pushing that for years. Windows 8 operating system is seriously pushing that direction as well.

Personally, I don't think this will happen. There are too many things you MUST have local copies for, too many software that is not replaceable with online only versions.

The main thing against this "idea" is what happens when your internet goes down? AND you are on a deadline.

Security still is not close to actually what I would call, secure when it comes to storing online content. The banks can't even keep their customers records from being hacked and it is 2012. Look at the last major breach this month to prove my point on security.

Google came out and blatantly stated they are going to use the content you upload to their cloud services anyway they want including sell advertising.

The most current online cloud launch that I agree with is Adobe's creative cloud product where they have many of their software titles available for download and install on your local computer. They update the software regularly, add more titles and you choose when and what you install. It all runs locally with additional cloud based services for storing and sharing your content with others you work with and/or the public.

That kind of thing I like but going 100% online and just having a dumb terminal connected to the internet I personally can't see that working. There are currently online versions of photoshop which works this way but there is also a big difference in features vs the online and offline version.

For the vast majority of businesses going 100% online is not going to cut it, especially when security is mandatory. Many people that just do email or publish blogs, sure yeah they do that now but this idea of 100% online is not going to be a reality and the companies that are forcing this issue I honestly feel there will be a massive revolt and huge back peddling if forced down that route.

If you have a DVD or Blueray player there are A LOT of interaxctivity with the web built-in. The new television screens also have voice integration and webcams that allow for control directly through hand and arm movements. You can also "type" via the remote control on some models.

Still isn't going to replace the laptop or desktop computers.

Look at usage of these internet connected devices, what and how do people actually use them and what limits do they have? It might be nice to be able to quickly look up information about sports scores, read twitter or facebook but there is no way you are going to replace your main computer or even tablet device with your television set. Not going to happen I don't care what year it is.

I personally have actually replaced my television with my computer and computer monitors though. Go figure.

As far as I know, ALL mobile devices consume html5 and javascript as their standard for online content. Windows 8 is also heavily html5 and javascript based with their widgets and apps for internet.

Android is able to use flash, Ios not capable but you can create the same content in both versions.

The idea of strictly desktop or the web has blurred and most devices integrate local software and applications that consume web content. Though it is still different than being 100% online all the time with everything. If I disconnect my tablet from the internet I still can work offline and play games, I don't have to be connected all the time as commented above in another post.

While the tech and web industry is constantly evolving, and seemingly at a faster and faster pace (Moores Law), I see the number of programming languages expanding, as opposed to contracting. Yes, many will fall by the wayside, but I think a more likely possibility is the addition of languages and the reduction of use in older technology.

I would liken this scenario to that of Books 10 years ago, and radio 20 years ago. Everyone was worried that the two would disappear because something better came along (Kindle, Epub, Mp3, Napster, Pandora, Spotify). The reality though, is that the old mediums just lost market share. People still listen to the radio.

Yes, some programming languages do end up in the gutter (most will someday). But it's a slow and fluid process, with lots of crossover.

You can if you want to, there are work arounds for the older browsers, even for IE6. Check out ==> html5shim - HTML5 IE enabling script - Google Project Hosting

There are other similar projects out there as well.

The problem is not just older browsers but with operating systems as well, XP will NOT work with any IE version over 8. Even if you wanted to use IE9 or the beta for IE10 you can't, they won't work or at least are not available for direct download for XP.

I am sort of in a forced upgrade anyway but if you are a PC user the minimum operating system you must have now is windows 7 to get access to the newest technology for the web. IF you are using IE, which actually quite a lot of people are.

Yes, those scripts are a possibility but experience shows that when you have really complicated scripts yourself, together they tend to have unexpected results. Don't get me wrong - I still use them though.

Html5 is the future. By html5 I mean html5, css3, and javascript. Everything is trending towards it. Microsoft will be releasing the new version of windows in October and for the first time you can build native apps for Windows in html5. Hybrid apps can be built using it as well (iphone, ipad, andriod, etc..). Add to this the web tv market and even apps for cars. It's all revolving around html5. Most market research reports point out this trend as well. Good news for web developers.

And it's exciting!

More and more features that only desktop apps were once capable of integrated into the browser platform backed by the web. We're beginning to see some very exciting developments due to these changes including support for 3D rendering via WebGL and bitmap drawing though <canvas>. With Local storage, you could see entire web apps downloaded to your computer. Eventually browsers may even download and compile the web applications so that they are treated like first-class desktop applications.

What others in this thread are referring to are the triad of technologies that contribute to the rendering a page and it's contents in the browser: HTML5, CSS 3, and Javascript.

HTML5 is designed to be a continuous iteration markup language. As new features are added to the HTML specification, browsers are heavily encouraged to support it. If the implementation doesn't work out, then browser vendors may suggest a better alternative or choose not to support it at all. Ultimately, only features that progress the web platform are included.

One significant difference in HTML5 as compared to 4 and prior is the opening of the DOM and allowing custom tags in the specification. This opens the door to anyone who wants to write a feature for their own implementation in the DOM the browser won't gripe at it or misbehave the render.

You're right, no one software development language should be considered "the future," but right now it has the most momentum As a living specification, HTML5 will continue to change over time and could be considered future-proof for it's flexibility. It will do well for a quite some time.

Originally it was said to be boot to gecko project but now they are going to call it something else or probably Firefox OS which is purely based on HTML5 and using linux kernel. If you're going to be proficient into HTML5, you will be mobile developer for firefox as well.

Mozilla's plans for a Firefox OS for mobile devices to counter iOS and Android is a very exciting notion. Google is trying something similar for general purpose browsing with Chrome OS, but it sounds like Mozilla's going to mobile computing a step further.

You need flash for that. The only reason people think flash is dead is because Steve Jobs couldn't get it to work on the pathetic processor in the first iPhone. HTML5's main benefit is CSS3 but not all browsers implement it all. Hopefully we will get there one day.

Flash isn't dead at all, as there are several ways to HTML5 export from within it, through several plugins. Besides, Adobe isn't sleeping

If HTML5 can be standardized one day (fully cross browser), which isn't so sure because of the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) VS Web Hypertext Application Technology Working Group quarrel, it will not be before 2020

However, some HTML5 functionalities already are cross browser, and one may use'em.

  I'd like to point out that HTML5 is making quite of a bit of headway in this field as well. A developer (Kripken) has been working on an HTML5 3D FPS game engine and has progressed beautifully. Best of all, it works completely out of the box with no plugins on the latest Firefox(15.x) release. It's called Banana Bread.
  
  Traditional desktop applications are on the way out and browser-based applications are gaining more and more traction every year. With increasingly more powerful Javascript engines, offline permissions, media and input controls on the way, browser applications already feel a lot like their desktop counterparts.

I would love HTML5 to be the future and one unifying technology that can bridge all kinds of devices - desktop, mobile, game consoles, smart TVs, etc. And I believe it will happen to some extent. But there are a few worrying signs on the horizon.

For example, the recent split of the two bodies that look after the HTML5 standard (WHATWG and W3C) Hopefully, it won't lead to confusion and incompatibilities.

Also the varying degrees of HTML5-related capabilities that some devices provide. Namely smart TVs and game consoles. Do hardware manufacturers have enough incentive to make sure their software fully adheres to the standard and not just an after-thought?

With new mobile OS being announced all the time like Mozilla OS there are so many different devices HTML5 developers need to support.

Then of course there's no easy access to native hardware such as the camera on mobile devices. Will desktop and native apps die out or will they share the future with the "in-browser" applications?

It seems to me that HTML 5 is the way to go for the future (once some of the missing libraries appear and the browsers get their collective hats together).

HTML5 with CSS3 is slowly becoming a standard, so to speak

It offers a lot of options, and it will be a big boom once all current versions of the browsers become HTML5/CSS3 compatible.
