SEMANTIC ANALYSIS

The results of our semantic analysis are shown below using the website's language.

They are the main concepts covered by css-tricks.com.

Each concept has a confidence score. The higher it is, the more important the topic is relative to the page.

Topics
Cascading Style Sheets Confidence: 92% Arrow up

Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) is a style sheet language used for describing the presentation of a document written in a markup language.

Although most often used to set the visual style of web pages and user interfaces written in HTML and XHTML, the language can be applied to any XML document, including plain XML, SVG and XUL, and is applicable to rendering in speech, or on other media.

Along with HTML and JavaScript, CSS is a cornerstone technology used by most websites to create visually engaging webpages, user interfaces for web applications, and user interfaces for many mobile applications.

JavaScript Confidence: 89% Arrow up

JavaScript is a high-level, dynamic, untyped, and interpreted programming language.

It has been standardized in the ECMAScript language specification.

Alongside HTML and CSS, JavaScript is one of the three core technologies of World Wide Web content production; the majority of websites employ it, and all modern Web browsers support it without the need for plug-ins.

JavaScript is prototype-based with first-class functions, making it a multi-paradigm language, supporting object-oriented, imperative, and functional programming styles.

It has an API for working with text, arrays, dates and regular expressions, but does not include any I/O, such as networking, storage, or graphics facilities, relying for these upon the host environment in which it is embedded.

Web design Confidence: 80% Arrow up

Web design encompasses many different skills and disciplines in the production and maintenance of websites.

The different areas of web design include web graphic design; interface design; authoring, including standardised code and proprietary software; user experience design; and search engine optimization.

Often many individuals will work in teams covering different aspects of the design process, although some designers will cover them all.

The term web design is normally used to describe the design process relating to the front-end (client side) design of a website including writing mark up.

Web design partially overlaps web engineering in the broader scope of web development.

Web designers are expected to have an awareness of usability and if their role involves creating mark up then they are also expected to be up to date with web accessibility guidelines.

HTML Confidence: 79% Arrow up

Hypertext Markup Language (HTML) is the standard markup language for creating web pages and web applications.

With Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) and JavaScript it forms a triad of cornerstone technologies for the World Wide Web.

Web browsers receive HTML documents from a webserver or from local storage and render them into multimedia web pages.

HTML describes the structure of a web page semantically and originally included cues for the appearance of the document.

Software development Confidence: 61% Arrow
