Move beyond simple site creation and build web applications with HTML5 that can compete with desktop apps and run on mobile devices. This practical guide shows you how HTML5's JavaScript APIs give you the power to take web development into many fields that used to require platform-specific developmentΓΓé¼ΓÇ¥particularly mobile deployment.

You'll not only discover how to take advantage of local storage, geolocation, multithreaded processing, and flexible network connectivity with HTML5, you'll also learn many ways to make application development with JavaScript more powerful.

Learn how HTML5 will bring about a radical change in web browser applications
Get details about powerful toolkits that will help you program in JavaScript more efficiently
Discover powerful aspects of JavaScript that you may not be aware of, such as closures, lambda, and functional programming
Learn how HTML5 lets your applications store data in the browser so that you're not bound to the server
Take your app offline, and explore how an offline application cache can speed up page loading when the app is online
Use HTML5 Web Workers to create multithreaded applications with JavaScript
Make your application mobile through geolocation and other HTML5 elements
Learn a new way to communicate between the browser and a server with web sockets




What Is HTML5?

HTML5: EveryoneΓΓé¼Γäós using it, nobody knows what it is. I realize that sounds more like a line out of an existential movie ΓΓé¼ΓÇ¥ maybe Waiting for Godot or a screenplay by Sartre ΓΓé¼ΓÇ¥ than a statement about HTML5. But itΓΓé¼Γäós really the truth: most of the people using HTML5 are treating it as HTML4+, or even worse, HTML4 (and some stuff they donΓΓé¼Γäót use). The result? A real delay in the paradigm shift that HTML5 is almost certain to bring. ItΓΓé¼Γäós certainly not time to look away, because by the time you look back, you may have missed something really important: a subtle but important transition centered around HTML5.
