Session descrip­tion

HTML5 is all the rage with the cool kids, and although there’s a lot of focus on the new lan­guage, there’s plenty for web app devel­op­ers with new JavaScript APIs both in the HTML5 spec and sep­a­rated out as their own W3C spec­i­fi­ca­tions. This ses­sion will take you through demos and code and show off some of the out­right crazy bleed­ing edge demos that are being pro­duced today using the new JavaScript APIs. But it’s not all pie in the sky – plenty is use­ful today, some even in Internet Explorer!

Specifically we’ll be look­ing at script­ing the video media ele­ment, 2D can­vas and some of the mashups we can achieve. How to take our web apps com­pletely offline, going beyond the cookie and HTML5’s answer to thread­ing: web workers.
