HTML5 Template for WebApp

Posted on 03 Jan 2015

I've been doing a few 1-off web apps lately. I tried to validate them with W3C and saw that my Aptana-Studio html template was actually not compliant.

Now I am using this template, and it it seems to be OK:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html lang="en">
  <head>
    <meta charset=utf-8 />
    <style type="text/css">
      /* style goes here */
    </style>
    <script type="text/javascript">
      // script goes here
    </script>
    <title>Title</title>
  </head>
  <body>
    <h1>App</h1>
  </body>
</html>

I keep the JavaScript and the CSS inline on purpose to minimize load time.
