HTML4.next "HTML Living Standard" is the latest spec "HTML5" in a Broad sense = latest Web tech Web technologies for Application platform Multi-Platform App Environment All modern (rich) OSs support HTML5! Web developers recently use "PWA" to summarize latest web technologies, instead of HTML5 6
(Hyper Text Markup Language) Markup Language for the Web De ne contents and structure CSS (Cascading Style Sheet) Control appearance of contents JS (JavaScript) Control behavior of Web Apps "Java"Script come from Java because of marketing purpose (not subset of Java) 7
for the Web 1990: 1st Web Browser WorldWideWeb released 1993: HTML published as Internet Draft 1994: W3C start web standardization 1995: HTML 2.0 published as RFC 1866 1997: HTML 3.2 become W3C REC 1997: HTML 4.0 become W3C REC 12
it's fail) W3C focused to re-invent HTML with XHTML but XHTML was not widely used since it's not compatible with HTML4, not supported by IE 2004: WHATWG established Mozilla & Opera had proposed backward compatible enhancement for HTML4 but rejected by W3C. Then browser vendors start discussion in another organization, WHATWG 2007: W3C start new HTML WG W3C started HTML5 standardization based on WHATWG HTML 2014: HTML5 become W3C REC (recommendation) 13
WHATWG HTML Living Standard = version-less spec Browser vendors only refer HTML living standard de ned by WHATWG, not W3C HTML5.x snapshot version = W3C HTML 5.x W3C continue to publish HTML5.x year by year based on WHATWG HTML living standard small di erence exists but implementors ignore it 14
update HTML4++ = HTML5 backward compatible, step-by-step improvement 1st step for next gen tech HTML5 start to summarize already implemented non-standard (browser speci c) technologies for Web Applications 1st step to create Large Web Apps 15
from Gmail (2004), Google Maps (2005), many desktop apps switch to Web apps from 2008, Web is treated as OS independent platform to support new platforms such as iOS and Android. "Plateau of Productivity" now after too much expectations and disappointment, now widely used properly in many industries buzzword: a word or phrase that becomes very popular for a period of time 18
Gmail (2004), Google Maps (2005), Flash/Java apps start to switch to HTML5 2014 Atom, Electron GitHub released Atom text editor and Electron framework to create desktop apps like Atom with Node.js and Chromium (and it become popular) 2014 Unity 5.3 support HTML5 (WebGL) AAA games can now run on browsers FYI: XUL Runner with Gecko was used before Electron 20
to support WebGL Unity 5.3 o cially suppoprt WebGL Unity Web Player Plug-in become EOL C# => C => asm.js about 1/2 speed of Native Unity (2016) Unreal Engine 3 support WebGL Unreal Engine 4.9 include WebGL export by default about 2/3 speed of Native (2014) 21
as "hybrid apps" with Cordova to support both iOS and Android with single code 2012: disappointed iOS Facebook app was too slow (because of limitation of WebView of iOS, no problem for Android actually...) 2015~: HTML5 (PWA) become popular again Web app (currently called PWA) and new hybrid frameworks such as React Native become popular 23
SF https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P-a_R6ewrmM 24 “The full Safari engine is inside of iPhone. And so, you can write amazing Web 2.0 and Ajax apps that look exactly and behave exactly like apps on the iPhone.”
Party apps are all Web apps (no native app support) iPhone = phone + iPod + internet client 2008.08 App Store start support native 3rd Party apps 2008.09 Android 1.0 release Android Market start on 2008.10 along with HTC Dream around 2010: hybrid apps become trend WebView was widely used to make HTML5 apps 25
TechCrunch Disrupt SF 2012 https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P-a_R6ewrmM 26 “... the biggest mistake that we made, as a company, is betting too much on HTML5 as opposed to native …”
to Native Hybrid version facebook app was too slow on iOS and they switch to Native implementation ~2015-2016 Native apps become popular on Google I/O 2016, PWA was introduced and Android apps start to use Web widely again... 2018.03: iOS 11.3 support PWA O -line, Install, Payment API support for Web apps. This is consumer app trend. Majority of Enterprise apps already become hybrid/html5/pwa apps. 27

for various industry Most popular Language and Framework should be used for Embedded devices too Free to Use technology No worry about vendor lock-in nor patent/license issue Suitable platform for very long term products Work with Internet and the Web Share same client code for embedded devices and PC, smart devices Easy to update apps when your app loaded from network 58
with Web Engine background: Web usage in IoT products In the IoT era, almost products will connect to the Internet and some of them use web technologies to communicate or control. Not only smart devices apps, various layers of technologies are web and Web engine (Browsers or JavaScript engine) suit for the case. Even edge devices like sensors some can be controlled from Web directly or via controller devices. 59

(main thread), Style and Layout calculation, Painting and Composting between each frame rendering If some of these are too heavy, cannot keep 60 (or 30) fps (= looks slow) SoC speci c porting needed to accelerate each steps for example, JIT engine(s) which use assembly code are needed to accelerate JavaScript (or about 10 times slower with interpreter execution) RZ/G1 use GPU for Paint (Canvas, Video) and Composite steps too! RZ/G1 support latest Style engine "Stylo" which is introduced from Gecko 57 details: https://developers.google.com/web/fundamentals/performance/rendering/ 63
performance test with Gecko 52 on RZ/G1M 64 Fish Bowl (fps, 50 sh) Speed Reading (average draw) Fish IE Tank (fps, 250 sh) Speedometer (runs/min) 0 2.5 5 7.5 10 without GPU Compositor with GPU Compositor Bench mainly for Composite about 10 times faster 3d benchmark with fish tank about 2.6 times faster repeatedly render 96 elements about 3.2 times faster similar to real (various) app UI about 1.7 times faster
panel see GPU accelerated animations and video decode example using Framework (React) like Control panel with many images or graph General Web Apps (for PC or mobile) Really complex and heavy app like Google Maps 3D contents (HelloRacer, PhiloGL etc...) PlayCanvas Apps (BMW Car, Home Lift customize) see https://github.com/webdino/gecko-embedded/wiki/Sample-Contents 65
Platform Pros Cons Gecko Free License (MPL), Edge Web tech, Share code, Support in Japan Footprint No Support for embedded (except RZ/G!) Chromium Free License (BSD), Edge Web tech, share code for PC and smart devices Footprint, no support in Japan No support for embedded WebKit Free License (BSD), Edge Web tech, share code for PC and smart devices Footprint, no support Less web tech support than Chromium/Gecko Qt WebEngine reuse QML code OS support with Qt EE Commercial: Too expensive OSS version: license (GPLv3), no support Android Performance, edge tech, OS support Google services support (except AOSP) Footprint, Too many complex update, support license (contract with Google)
memory usage (of contents): 1MB 3MB A little Complex one with Frameworks memory usage: 5MB 20MB Complex Web App (Google Maps Lite) memory usage: 30MB 60MB not intended for Embedded devices In addition to this, around 100+MB needed for browser depends on UI part and window size etc. (not like android) no limit of memory for Web content. You can run 1GB over AAA game on browser 67
Engine (included in Renesas VLP) Runtime Engine for Web Apps Same engine as Firefox 60 (ESR version) We may support Gecko 68 too for RZ/G2 release (not sure yet) No brand version build of Firefox (not included in VLP) Full version (same as Linux desktop) of browser app No warranty for browser features except to load HTML content Too heavy browser for Embedded devices actually Remote debug tools included (same as PC version) 68
no or minimal UI for embedded devices needed use Gecko to load HTML content Note: need to implement wrapper apps (with XUL) to use Gecko to load HTML content. What wrapper or browser is preapred? Amethyst (under development, OSS, free to use) Corundum (commercial browser, need license fees) 69 content area browser UI
content/apps full feature browser Firefox (not included in VLP) contains too many features and heavy In general, you need to use simple wrapper app of Gecko Engine We are now preparing simple minimal wrapper app "Amethyst" If you need device speci c Browser app, need to develop (or buy) it Application Management system Packaging Web Apps, Delivery and update via network, Signature for the package, OTA update system are not included in VLP and Gecko Communication with Native Libraries or Apps Web Apps cannot dynamically "linked" nor communicated with unix socket etc. Your native component need to support some Web API or you need enhance Gecko WebDINO Japan etc can provide consulting support for feasibility study and development 70
No Browser UI (No tabs, navigation bar etc) Minimal memory usage to load HTML No unintentional network connection (to Mozilla/ Google etc servers) Schedule Developer (internal) release: End of June Public Release: End of Sep. 71
