What is "microdata"
In HTML to Microdata API allows us to make the semantic structure a little more specific, defining what is the content of each element.
We add special attributes, itemscope
and itemprop
. Each element itemscope
defines a data item. Each itemprop
defines the name of a property. The property value is the content of the HTML tag. A Microdata API provides us with special access to this data.
