November 5th update: I just realized [JAMstack](https://jamstack.com) was a thing and I find it funny from the perspective that it's kinda where we're heading. Pretty sure this was originally the idea, precursor, or concept around server-less, which I admittedly didn't pay too much attention to. I'm listening to an audiobook on the subject right now and they seem to be making some of the same arguments and points I've been making and brain-dumping here.

[My history on the Internet](/web-development/my-history-on-the-internet) started in 1998 and has never been able to truly hold my attention. I feel like once I hit a certain level of mastery, I'm kinda bored of it. It takes a lot for me to keep practicing in the plateau. With that said, I've never really wanted to be a software developer or engineer; I just like building things and projects like this site help me communicate to teams what's going on in my head and what I'm seeing in the outside world.

I first heard about [microdata](https://html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/microdata.html#microdata) and microdata vocabularies around 2009. This let you put attributes in your HTML elements to help further describe the content. For example, if you view the source of this page, you should see that the article tag uses a `typeof` attribute with a value of `BlogPosting` and a `vocab` attribute with a value of `https://schema.org`. This means I'm using the microdata vocabulary from [schema.org](https://schema.org/) and a computer reading this file can better understand my intent; as long as it can read [.XML](eXtensible Markup Language) (specifically HTML) and can understand the schema.org vocabulary. The navigation is wrapped in a `nav` element, describing the intent of that area of the page. This article is wrapped in an `article` element, defining the intent. The microdata further describes my intent. I could put the microdata at the top of the page using [.JSON-LD](JavaScript Object Notation for Linking Data); however, I would prefer to put it in the HTML itself because the interpreter doesn't need to know [.JS](JavaScript) to interpret the intent, thereby, being technologically agnostic—anything that can parse XML (or a plain text string) can interpret this page.
