HTML6 Dedicated Libraries 

For libraries that are very large requires a lot of issues and for this a cacheable version of libraries can be introduced in HTML6 for the ease of using and loading other libraries.

Freedom to Resize image

For better viewing experience and new tag <srcset> can be introduced in this version. In this browser can be able to resize and adjust the image according to window size and device resolution.  

Express Tags

<logo> </logo> for the logo on the page, <sidebar> </sidebar>, <navigation> </navigation> are some express tags.

Annotations for Images and Videos

In HTML5 we can annotate words but not images and videos but in this version annotations for videos and images also can be included. 

Authentication Enhancement

Although HTML5 was good in terms of security and authentication but for more better security keys can be stored off-site as to prevent people from gaining access. Therefore it can also be accepted by WHATWG.

Better Contact Information

Sometimes for pulling out our contact number, email we have to cut and paste it. A better contact information system can be included in this version.

Pluggable Languages

Effective and pluggable languages would be included in this version so that developers would be able to create a unique design within time and the browser would be able to easily implement this feature within a few steps.

Pluggable Preprocessors

Pre-processors are also present in the current HTML version. But in the new version, it would be optimized and will open a new window for developers.

Camera Integration

We generally use cameras and microphones for interacting with people. HTML6  would help us to access our media located in our device and we will get better control of the microphone and camera.

Stronger Micro-formats

There are some tags in HTML such as footer, paragraph, headline but it would be more efficient if standard web page sections are included such as address or phone number. It would boost the speed and quality of website.

Conclusion

There is no perfect language exist and there is always a chance of improvement. There is no official news yet but HTML6 will soon be released in the market and will be available for users. Hopefully, it will be better and easier to use than older versions.
