Git Workflow

Git is a distributed version-control system for tracking changes in source code during software development. It is designed for coordinating work among programmers, but it can be used to track changes in any set of files. Its goals include speed, data integrity, and support for distributed, non-linear workflows. For more information about the UNT Git Workflow for Drupalers, please contact UNT System ITSS Central Web Services. Passing a developer quiz is required by CWS for users to be granted access to the web administration area.

HTML5

Published in October 2014, HTML5 is a markup language that uses elements called tags to structure and present web-based content across the World Wide Web. It is designed to be easily readable, expandable and powerful. Hypertext means machine-readable text and means to structure it in a specific format. So, HTML is called hypertext and markup language because it is a language that allows users to organize, improve the appearance of, and link text with data on the internet. HTML is an application of SGML, Standard Generalized Markup Language, and allows an author to omit certain tags and use attribute minimization.

XTML

XHTML is an application of XML (Extensible Markup Language) that doesn’t permit the omission of any tags or the use of attribute minimization. However, it provides a shorthand notation for empty elements—for example, we could use <br/> instead of <br></br>—which HTML does not.
