# [HTML5 Boilerplate](http://html5boilerplate.com) # GovHack toolkit
   
HTML5 Boilerplate is a professional front-end template for building fast, Collection of resources for data analysis and visualisation
robust, and adaptable web apps or sites.  
   
This project is the product of many years of iterative development and combined  
community knowledge. It does not impose a specific development philosophy or  
framework, so you're free to architect your code in the way that you want.  
   
* Source: [https://github.com/h5bp/html5-boilerplate](https://github.com/h5bp/html5-boilerplate)  
* Homepage: [http://html5boilerplate.com](http://html5boilerplate.com)  
* Twitter: [@h5bp](http://twitter.com/h5bp)  
   
   
## Quick start  
   
Choose one of the following options:  
   
1. Download the latest stable release from  
[html5boilerplate.com](http://html5boilerplate.com/) or a custom build from  
[Initializr](http://www.initializr.com).  
2. Clone the git repo — `git clone  
https://github.com/h5bp/html5-boilerplate.git` - and checkout the tagged  
release you'd like to use.  
   
   
## Features  
   
* HTML5 ready. Use the new elements with confidence.  
* Cross-browser compatible (Chrome, Opera, Safari, Firefox 3.6+, IE6+).  
* Designed with progressive enhancement in mind.  
* Includes [Normalize.css](http://necolas.github.com/normalize.css/) for CSS  
normalizations and common bug fixes.  
* The latest [jQuery](http://jquery.com/) via CDN, with a local fallback.  
* The latest [Modernizr](http://modernizr.com/) build for feature detection.  
* IE-specific classes for easier cross-browser control.  
* Placeholder CSS Media Queries.  
* Useful CSS helpers.  
* Default print CSS, performance optimized.  
* Protection against any stray `console.log` causing JavaScript errors in  
IE6/7.  
* An optimized Google Analytics snippet.  
* Apache server caching, compression, and other configuration defaults for  
Grade-A performance.  
* Cross-domain Ajax and Flash.  
* "Delete-key friendly." Easy to strip out parts you don't need.  
* Extensive inline and accompanying documentation.  
   
   
## Documentation  
   
Take a look at the [documentation table of  
contents](/h5bp/html5-boilerplate/blob/master/doc/README.md). This  
documentation is bundled with the project, which makes it readily available for  
offline reading and provides a useful starting point for any documentation  
you want to write about your project.  
   
   
## Contributing  
   
Anyone and everyone is welcome to  
[contribute](/h5bp/html5-boilerplate/blob/master/doc/contribute.md). Hundreds  
of developers have helped make the HTML5 Boilerplate what it is today.
