HTML5 Boilerplate 4.0.0 released

Save time. Create with confidence.

“The most popular front-end template,” is exactly this phrase that flaunts on the official website . Nevertheless, I will provide an excerpt from the previous version.

HTML5 Boilerplate is an HTML / CSS / JS template for all maniacs writing fast, buggy and future-oriented websites.

After more than two years of development, we have collected the best hacks for cross-browser compatibility, performance tuning, and even such things as cross-domain Ajax requests and Flash. And our example .htaccess for Apache will help you configure caching, compression (gzip!) Rules and prepare your site to work with HTML5 video and @ font-face.

Boilerplate is not a framework. We also do not impose any particular type of development. This is just a collection of gizmos that helps you quickly and painlessly start making your website.
