how is CSS dead? CSS is going to live on forever as the base of styling. Stylus, SASS, LESS will always compile to CSS, and their will be a "religious war" of which one to make as the base.
Assuming you're not simply trolling, would you care to clarify and expand your comments?
Are you referring to the HTML 5 canvas element? That's principally intended to provide native graphics capabilities for HTML, not to allow for semantic styling of textual content, as is the case (mostly) for CSS.
Otherwise, your comments here are not constructive nor do they follow the HN guidelines as I read them.
How would one create a document type page with a canvas? I'm generally curious and would love an example. I've use canvas before, but strictly for image manipulation and exploring animation.
My experience and limited knowledge of it don't lead me to believe it'll replace HTML/CSS documents anytime soon (which are really the starting point before blogs/apps).
What about resizing causing the whole canvas to be wiped away (thats a default behavior right?).
Edit: Also, how do you achieve separation of content and style?
Canvas is just a low level API for 2D graphics, on top of it you could build your own rendering engine with custom document object model, document serialization format, layout engine, styling engine, etc. This would be an enormous amount of work though, I don't believe that standard HTML/SVG/CSS/DOM are that broken that reimplementing them from scratch would become a viable option.
