Without a doubt, HTML5 has established itself as the best way
to build applications in a multimedia rich world. In so doing it has brought
about several huge advancements in web technology. For example, HTML5 provides superior support
for vector graphics and interactive online features like file sharing and photo
or video editing. It also enables us to stream audio and video files in a web
browser without the need for third-party plugins, which thankfully in turn makes
connection speeds quicker.
With smart devices of varying screen sizes and
resolutions saturating the market, HTML5 also enables users to have a better
and more consistent web experience across several devices. Developers have responded to all these
developments over the years with greater and greater numbers of cool and useful
HTML5 projects, all taking advantage of this great technology.

10 most popular HTML5 projects at CodeCanyon that you really need to know about.
