Semantic Elements

HTML5 offers new elements for better document structure. This tutorial briefly covered some of them:

<article>
Defines an article in the document

<aside>
Defines content aside from the page content

<details>
Defines additional details that the user can view or hide

<footer>
Defines a footer for the document or a section
<header>
Defines a header for the document or a section

<nav>
Defines navigation links in the document

<section>
Defines a section in the document

<summary>
Defines a visible heading for a <details> element

Note: These tags might be just too new for full browser support, but it's coming!
