This reminds me that while I’ve been programming for a paycheck since 1998 my knowledge growth in html stopped at about 2001. Are there any good courses or recommendations for seasoned pros who never stopped to learn HTML5?
> You may sometimes hear about "new HTML5 elements", or find HTML5 described as a new version of HTML. HTML5 was the successor to previous HTML versions and introduced new elements and capabilities to the language on top of the previous version, HTML 4.01, as well as improving or removing some existing functionality. However, as a Living Standard HTML now has no version.
Even though it may cover a lot of basic and familiar topics, I think the following is the best (re)introduction to HTML:
HTML: HyperText Markup Language - https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/HTML
HTML5 is just the common name of the living standard. It's clear, unambiguous, and what everybody uses. It is not a "buzzword".

I agree that it's unnecessarily dismissive.
It makes me look stupid in code interviews because I commit very little to memory but professionally it's helped me catch a lot of syntactical upgrades.
