    Yes, thank you. It is a bit of everything. Where I worked in Print production at the time we used all the XML standards to max extent and got great benefit from doing so. It all crumbled down very quickly with the take-off of Web where #JSON mapped way better to JS than #XML did, esp. when also honoring the intricate web of (de-facto) standards that had emerged, and how the XML ecosystem got captured by corporations peddling expensive products, such Enterprise service buses and the like.

    It would have been great if #XHTML had stuck around. In hindsight the shift to HTML5 may be seen as a move by the WHATWG to establish their dominance over the #browser market.

    As for #JSONLD it must see to rewin hearts and minds, must inspire and convince people to take the bet of adopting it.

  2. I am super excited to announce that I am working on a complete renewal of my entire indie/small website project! :3

    I am currently taking the time to get my entire website, including all sub-pages and projects on it, up to speed at once in several categories.

    This includes but is very much not limited to:

    • XHTML to HTML5 migration
    • Bilingual German/English sections
    • Semantic HTML everywhere, including microformats2
    • Full checkup and improvement of all content on the site
    • Better design and reworked CSS
    • Massive accessibility improvements

    Read the full announcement including a history of the project here (~3 600 words, but with a skip-friendly table of contents):

    Please be aware though that what you currently see live on the internet does not represent the state of the rework.
    Since I am working on the new version behind the scenes on my own computer, the blog post I linked still is crammed into the old design and structure of the site so I could just get it out there.

  3. If you want to know at what junction our field stood at some point wrt the mobile Web, check out this particular gem from ZDNet, “Souping Up Wireless” (2001).

    And yes—WML, HDML, CHTML, XHTML.

    Fantastic.

    (This relates to what I wrote about the other day, researching content for the 2000s and 2010s archives on @frontenddogma. Stay tuned!)

  4. I guess the #fediverse is probably the best place to ask a #webdev #web functioning question of this nature:

    I want to add either an #rss or #atom feed to my personal #website. I'm living like it's 2003 and remade it in #xslt, so I was wondering if there is a way of embedding either format directly inside a #xhtml document, #microdata style, or do I need a separate file and/or a more involved #webserver setup with #contenttype?

    That would be swell since I could use the same #xml base file to generate links to posts in the #html document, as well as make it available as a #feed.

    The alternative would be to pipe this through some build step that pre-generates both files for me, but I'd rather keep this fully #static "drop files into a web server".

  5. Nota, Typst и Evidence. Языки программирования для генерации документов

    Все настолько привыкли к Markdown, что считают его неким стандартом для оформления документов в вебе. Но это не конечная истина, высеченная на камне, а просто популярный язык разметки, как HTML и TeX. В то же время появляется всё больше новых языков, которые позиционируют себя как замену, альтернативу или дополнение к Markdown и TeX. В некоторых случаях они включают функции программирования, то есть позволяют добавить в документ исполняемый код. Веб-редакторы нового поколения можно использовать даже вместо Google Docs.

  7. Here's the result of yesterday's shenanigans by the way. Minus the game which I haven't made yet. Still working out how to do that. 😅

    Nevermind the factual accuracy of the page. It's more of a lorem ipsum text. I'm planning to rewrite it with something more interesting later.

  8. I'm starting to scrap the bottom of the barrel when it comes to #XML parser conformance tests. Almost everything that remains require me to:

    1- Support external DTDs
    2- Validate DTDs

    So the questions to consider:

    1- Instead of validating DTDs, should I look at something like #XSD or #RelaxNG instead?

    2- Is it acceptable practice to bundle popular DTDs like #XHTML with the project so we can minimize the network calls? I don't think that'd be a bad idea, so long as licensing allows it.
