I avoid usage of semantic elements that were introduced in HTML5(like section) (except article, aside) because I mostly work with web apps that are compatible with older browsers (IE8, Atommic 1.0 etc.)

Microsoft is giving this (Visual Studio Professional 2012 for Windows Desktop) away officially via Dreamspark. This is only for educational use and you need an ISIC (Internation Student Identification Card). They are giving away many premium softwares for free.

It's easy. Believe me. And there is Codecademy www.codecademy.com, a website that teaches web development an easy style.

And if JavaScript is interpreted through an efficient one like Chrome's V8 engine, apps will run fastest than we can imagine.

It's easy to design with Web Technologies so it will make software development easier. But.. it will not enable us to make background services or softwares like Rocket Dock or Rainmeter. A high school student can make his own application as many schools are teaching Simple web development (and of course how to use Visual Studio).

Good. VS is slow.. so I switched to MinGW Developer Studio.

As a software developer, I know what makes a good :thumbsup:software. But when it comes to programming them, gosh! I had a lot of night-outs, especially when making a browser engine. Then came this thought: why couldn't making software be any easier and faster? Then came the idea of making an OS. The main concept was creating and INTERPRETING applications using a database to store information, JavaScript for logics, HTML, CSS and JS for design. I already have a boot loader, Linux kernel. But now, I have a doubt. Is it necessary? Update: Everything is not coded in HTML or JS. It does supports the normal compiled ones. But it is not yet confirmed that which executable type to use. It is not interpreted in a web browser but in a browser engine. You really do not require an internet connection as they work offline. Everything works offline until or unless you want to update the application or download a new one from appStore. :thumbsup: or :thumbsdown:
