The results of the State of HTML 2023 survey are in! It’s an exciting time for HTML which has seen a lot of growth and expansion of capability in a welcome break with the past (when typically CSS and especially JavaScript would leapfrog the rate of change of the Web’s foundational markup language). Still, some might say we need a lot more progress on this front, which is why these survey results—while exhibiting some pressing issues around diversity and broad industry awareness—offer vital insight into the needs of today’s Web developers. Let’s break it all down right here on Just a Spec!
