Top Browsers in 2020

When I read this strange article about the top browsers for developers, I'm usually skeptical. But, seeing the expected browsers was logical to consider.

  1. Firefox (Developer Edition)
  2. Google Chrome (for Developers)
  3. Opera (for Developers)
  4. Polypane - never heard of this but will now consider and test
  5. Blisk - never heard of this and am skeptical
  6. Safari - like for real, in 2020?

Using Protocol vs "Protocol-Less" URL (for linking in HTML)

Dev Fam,

Recently I came across some code that upgraded the way I <link> in my web apps (i.e. HTML pages).

New Code (no https/http): 
<link rel="stylesheet" href="//maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/font-awesome/4.3.0/css/font-awesome.min.css" />

Old Code (or traditional way):
<link rel="stylesheet" href="https://maxcdn.bootstrapcdn.com/font-awesome/4.3.0/css/font-awesome.min.css" />

Going "Protocol-Less"

Here is a good discussion on why I've decided to use "protocol-less" URLs in my webapps:

Also notice (tip on referring to local file):

But, it's always up to you as the developer to decide. May the force be with you!
