This book is targeted towards people like me, who already know html/css/javascript and have heard about HTML5 but know little about what it is and why we should care. I came into this book thinking that HTML5 was merely a set of new tags but soon realized it has a lot more to do with giving more semantics to an html document. It does a good job explaining these concepts using a decent amount of examples. I think at times, I wanted to see more rendering alongside the html markup but not too often...more

Quickie review:

A great book and a good introduction to HTML5 and CSS3 if you're already familiar with these technologies.



Long review:

An all-round good book. The authors are reputable repositories of information and are fairly active in the Web concerning standards and web design tutorials. And they've got a great sense of Web humour.


This book isn't meant to be the ultimate guide to HTML5 and CSS3 specifications. It is meant as an introduction, a quick overview of all the new tools web developers

With the exception of a few grammatical and typographical issues, the reading so far has been pretty satisfactory, above average so to speak. I am about to start the fourth chapter, and the content so far has been to the point and informative; it has basically lived up to the promise of no nonsense, no fluff, and to-the-point discussion of the latest features that are, probably based on estimates, going to be the most used elements.

As the GoodReads' monthly newsletter has been probing me for up...more

اولین کتابی بود که خریداری کردم و تا آخرش رو خوندم. من پیش از اینکه این کتاب رو بخونم اطلاعات زیادی در مورد CSS3 و HTML5 داشتم. در طول خوندن هم شمارش که کردم فقط 4 یا 5 تا نکته رو نمیدونستم. اما در کل من راضی بودم. از پایه HTML5 و CSS3 توضیح داده شده بود. بسیار زیبا صفحه‌آرایی شده بود. من حتی کتاب رو در کتابخونه‌ی خودم دارم و ازش مراقبت میکنم چون ارزش داره.

Being new to development this book was great for me. I have read other review About needing some background knowledge before reading this book but that wasn't the case for me. I would recommend this to anyone wanting to get started in this kind of development, and if you get stuck on something google's an amazing tool to get you unstuck.

Unfortunately I'm a complete beginner to this, so many things I didn't quite understand or went through some parts very quickly. Still, I believe that those parts were very aproachable either for a novice or experienced, as the ones I went through covering a more historical perspective were very simply stated and explained.
For those interested in a practical and user like view on HTML5 and CSS3, hopefully with some background in HTML or CSS, this should be a great guide for sure.

اگر میخواهید یک وب سایت را با جدیدترین فناوری ها و استانداردهای وب پیاده سازی کنید، نخستین قدم یادگیری HTML5 و CSS3 است، این کتاب شروعی مناسب برای کسب مهارت در این زمینه است. در حال حاضر یادگیری در عمل بهترین شیوه‌ی آموزش در جهان است.

This is not a beginner book on HTML and CSS, but if you already have a background in both, this is a great way to get up to speed on cool new features, such as native HTML5 video, graphics with SVG and canvas, and more fun stuff.

Forse il miglior libro che abbia letto su html5. Spiega con esempi efficaci le novità introdotte dal nuovo standard, evidenziando sempre la compatibilità dei browser.
Assolutamente consigliato.

Excellent overview of new HTML5 and CSS3 Features. Requires prior knowledge of (X)HTML and CSS3.

Good if you're starting out fresh and don't know much about what's available with html5. Not so good if you know more than not much.
