Aprende a desarrollar con estándares. Opera Web Standards Curriculum.
Una de las empresas a las que admiro es Opera. No tanto por su navegador (que es de lo mejorcito) sino por su implicación a la hora de intentar que la Web sea mejor de lo que es hoy día. Por eso, no me sorprende conocer su nueva iniciativa (en colaboración con Yahoo! Developer Network), el Opera Web Standards Curriculum, concebida para instruir a todo aquel que esté interesado en el desarrollo Web con estándares.
En principio se trata de una serie de 21 artículos (aunque avisan que se irán ampliando muy pronto), cuyos títulos detallo a continuación:
