HTML declarative templating Syntax confusing annotations Compliance sourcing Declarative Templating Composing documents for publication on the Web is similar to other types of writing, but has a few extra requirements. At a minimum, authors should learn about hyperlink syntax, picture placement, accessibility compliance, and annotations. Once those are mastered, learning shortcuts for implicit semantax, formatting words, and advanced writing formalisms will be easy.
