Web Designing & Trend Setting Standards for 2013

HTML5 Css3 will the web standard soon in 2013

HMTL5 is not a single thing or a monolithic technology. It is a collection of features, technologies, and APIs that brings the power of the desktop and the vibrancy of multimedia experience to the web—while amplifying the web’s core strengths of interactivity and connectivity.

HTML5 includes the fifth revision of the HTML markup language, CSS3, and a series of JavaScript APIs. Together, these technologies enable you to create complex applications that previously could be created only for desktop platforms.

Responsive & Adaptive Web Design

This relatively new approach to web design allows building websites that are optimized for screens of all sizes:  small mobile devices, tablets and large desktop monitors. Unlike the traditional approach of building two versions of the same website (a desktop and a mobile), responsive and adaptive websites automatically adapt to the screen size and capabilities of any device.  The cost benefits are clear: one version of the website to build and to maintain.

HTML5 enables web apps to be more responsive, creating a user experience that rivals that of their desktop counterparts.

Offline APIs are not just for storing files locally, they can also improve performance. They enable your app to both quickly access locally stored data and minimize the number of times your app needs to make requests to the server. You can cache pages that users are likely to click and store assets needed in the next task or game level. The result is fast load times.

But even if you can’t stash assets beforehand, you can still create performant apps with new technologies like Web Workers, which lets you run multiple processes in the background.
On top of that, JavaScript engines are all grown up. They are highly optimized to run JavaScript fast. Some benchmarks even show that JavaScript on V8 engines—the open-sourced JavaScript interpreter for Google Chrome—runs faster than Python.

Apart from new technologies, a variety of techniques—such as minimizing bandwidth usage and connection times to the servers, file compression, asychronous callbacks—can add zip to apps. You can also access a wide range of performance-optimized libraries and tools.

Soon the Flash is going to Die

Adobe Flash is no longer the king of animation and interactivity.  

In 2013 we will see that number dwindling. Prediction is that an ever growing number of websites proactively replacing Flash with JavaScript, HTML5 and CSS3 for dynamic and interactive experiences that work universally well across platforms and don’t require any special plug-ins or software.

The Amazing Spider Man Game site is a great example of an HTML5 website that could only be previously done in Flash.
