A Googler and a Facebooker were in a pub discussing the complexities of building out a rich modern Web application. There are a ton of dependencies, and you need to be proficient in multiple languages and tools (JavaScript, HTML, CSS, SQL/NoSQL, backend languages, build tools, etc).

HTML 5 provides some great new features for web designers who want to code readable, semantically-meaningful layouts. However, support for HTML 5 is still evolving, and Internet Explorer is the last to add support.

I am a big fan of using custom events where it makes sense in applications. I took it too far in the early days of Bespin, but I really enjoy them where they make sense.
Chris Vanrensburg was talking to me about Virtual DOM events, and when I asked him about them he told me this:
there are not enough juicy real DOM events, and the DOM standards process is slow moving. It's long been a bone of contention that the

Paul Irish points to a recent survey by WebAIM showing what high-level accessibility guidelines frequently omit to mention: screenreaders and Javascript often co-exist. The study shows between 75% and 90% of screenreader users have Javascript enabled. This isn't just speculation, but a survey of 655 screenreader users.
