@gugurumbe W3C #RDFa is what you are looking for:

@jyasskin Off topic: Not what you're looking for but in case of minor interest, and perhaps with a broader view on "accessible" to both humans and machines, see https://www.w3.org/TR/ldn/linked-data-notifications-overview.svg

You can try input format #RDFa with the URI above and output to whatever e.g., graphviz.

What interests to me about this information embedding/extraction.

That said, perhaps I can propose an update to improve the accessibility tree on that SVG.

A regular users might write Markdown like this:

"""
# Hello!

How do you do?
"""

Or write HTML like this:

"""
<article>
<h1>Hello!</h1>
<p>How do you do?</p>
</article>
"""

#ActivityPub #ActivityStreams #FediDev #Fediverse #Markdown #retejo #RDFa

REMEMBER: this is for power-users, not regular users

How would you get ActivityPub / ActivityStreams into HTML using RDFa‽

Like this:

<div vocab="https://www.w3.org/ns/activitystreams#" typeof="Note">
<p property="name">Hello!</p>
<p>How do you do?</p>
</div>

AGAIN, REMEMBER: this is for power-users, not regular users.

Regular users can just write Markdown or HTML and Retejo will figure this out automatically for you

#ActivityPub #ActivityStreams #FediDev #Fediverse #Markdown #retejo #RDFa

If you are wondering what RDFa is —

You might be more familiar with OpenGraph.

https://ogp.me/

OpenGraph is usually the thing that causes "preview cards" to be showed for links shared on social-media.

OpenGraph is written in RDFa. Which, in practice, is some special HTML elements added to the page.

For example:

<meta property="og:image" content="https://example.com/img/preview.png" />

So what about ActivityPub‽ —

#ActivityPub #ActivityStreams #FediDev #Fediverse #Markdown #retejo #RDFa

6/

Obviously, beginners are NOT going to do this, but — some power-users may want this level of control.

There are different way this could be done, but — one way might be that power-users could use RDFa to explicitly specify what data from the HTML gets into the ActivityPub / ActivityStreams data.

Again, beginners and typical users would NOT do this.

But a power-user might want to.

Here is an example —

#ActivityPub #ActivityStreams #FediDev #Fediverse #Markdown #retejo #RDFa

5/

So, what would be a good user-experience (UX) for power-users be — in a system that automatically creates ActivityPub / ActivityStreams data from HTML and Markdown‽

One thought I had is that power-users could explicitly mark what data from their HTML gets into the ActivityPub / ActivityStreams data (if they want to).

I'll explain —

#ActivityPub #ActivityStreams #FediDev #Fediverse #Markdown #retejo #RDFa
