Day 20:

Today I’m going to be talking about microformats again, like I did yesterday. So different microformats vocabulary, which is a collection of attributes, have different prefixes depending on their meaning. A big one you’ll see is things starting with “p-” or “h-”. This got me curious, why do they have different prefixes? Anything that is a “root” property starts with an “h-”. So that means when yesterday we looked at how you could represent a profile using the “h-card” attributes, the “h-card” class was used to envelop the whole card. Anything with a “p-” prefix which is also very common is simply plain text, like a plain text summary or name. If you want to learn more about the different prefixes and microformats you can check out this resource to learn more. Until next time!
