(Event) DocType HTML5 Bangalore
DocType HTML5 Bangalore
About: The Bangalore edition of DocType HTML5 on October 9, 2010 was the first in the series and also HasGeek's first event. NSRCEL hosted the event at the Indian Institute of Management Bangalore and Microsoft sponsored it.
DocType HTML5 is a part conference, part workshop, and part genesis of a
developer community around HTML5. For the first time ever, HTML5 provides a
single platform for desktop and mobile applications across devices. HTML5 is an
open, vendor-neutral standard supported by the W3C web standards body.
The first edition of DocType HTML5 was held in Bangalore on October 9, 2010. It
received a 96% positive rating, following which the current multi-city series
was planned.
