HTML5 introduced several interesting features, like the canvas; local, session, and database storage; audio and video elements; and web workers, just to name a few. On the other hand, the CSS3 specification introduced many powerful features, like transitions, transformations and animations, mediaqueries, and webfonts. HTML5 with CSS3 expand the capabilities of the browser beyond acting as a mere viewer for web content, to actually running web applications.
In this project, we will showcase several sample web apps (refer to the Home page) to demonstrate the features provided by HTML5 and CSS3 technologies. The project is geared toward developers interested in creating applications using the latest technologies and Web APIs. Your feedback is always welcome and if you would like to become part of this exciting project, please check out our Community page.
For Developers:
As developers, if you want a quick reference of what techniques were used in each sample app, click on the app description. The description provides an overview of what features of HTML5/CSS3 were used in these apps. For a complete reference, download the repo. A link to the license is also provided for each app. You would also need to install the Tizen SDK on your system to run these apps on the simulator or emulator. You can find additional details on the Tizen SDK Developer website. Currently, all the config files (config.xml, .project) are part of the application repo. These two files are essential for creating a .wgt file to install on your emulator.
Coming soon:
- This initial release includes some games and educational apps. Next, we’ll add utility and productivity apps to the portfolio, so stay tuned.
- For users interested in just downloading the apps, this website will host the .wgt files for all the apps.
