HTML5 & CSS3:
HTML5 and CSS3 offer numerous possibilities for development.

Meanwhile, we increase reach and optimize the web experience at the same time.

jQuery:
jQuery is part of the WordPress development stack. jQuery offers many advantages for the customers with WordPress websites. We create engaging, dynamic and interactive elements for website visitors without overloading the available bandwidth. That’s why we use jQuery to perform certain actions directly in the user’s browser without requiring them to reload the page. With jQuery, for example, you can specify what actions are performed when a user clicks on a certain element.

JavaScript:
JavaScript is used within the WordPress platform to add dynamic elements to pages and posts or to your entire website. We know that JavaScript is primarily a client-side programming element that can modify a website’s existing HTML and CSS. But there are a number of useful things we can use JavaScript for, such as: running events on a web page, form validation, which requires you to store values in variables, or third-party APIs that can be placed on pages or posts.
Since JavaScript is executed by the user’s browser, it can also collect data from that browser. This is important when it comes to creating fast and efficient websites that load images quickly and respond well to mobile devices.
