# [HTML5 Boilerplate](http://html5boilerplate.com)
|
|
|
|
HTML5 Boilerplate is a professional front-end template for building fast,
|
|
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.
