Love Letter to HTML
Summary
In my naïveté, I saw you only as a stepping stone to “true programming”, and rushed past you to spend more time with seemingly more exciting languages. There have been many iterations of you over the years, and with each pruning of your deprecated elements and each blooming of your newly added tags, so too has your linguistic value grown. How can I express to you my gratitude for your six metadata tags, that allow me to make pages interactive, informative to web crawlers, and aesthetically pleasing?! Within your glorious , you permit me to navigate a well structured map of words and ideas, tabular data, embedded multimedia, and accessible forms. Your countless attributes empower me to further configure your functionality, style and meaning, a testament to your unwavering dedication to portraying the content of a site to everyone, regardless of their abilities or of the technologies they use.
