Closed 11 years ago.Is there any existing in-use, or even just conceptual attempts at creating a markup or programmatic expressions for designing the layouts of websites other than HTML/CSS?
If there are others out there and they do not appear to be in heavy use. Why is this?

How would that work? – S.Lott Commented Mar 1, 2011 at 20:23
- @S.Lott I'm asking for an approach to put graphics on the screen that aren't heavily reliant on HTML/CSS. For example, Flash (as Martin answered) has been used widely to do this. In theory, we could do something with SVG, or have a middle layer (server or client side) that generates the HTML/CSS from a separate set of instructions (similar to galador's answer, but I believe HAML and SASS are for HTML templates and CSS, not entire websites in general). Etc. Perhaps a different MIME type that allows interactivity. Things that were just in theory, or things that are reality. – Incognito Commented Mar 1, 2011 at 20:37
- 1 "aren't heavily reliant on HTML/CSS"? Please update the question to specify what you're talking about. "alternative" and "not heavily reliant" seem like very different things. – S.Lott Commented Mar 2, 2011 at 0:08
- 1 @jhocking Why not ask it? Why bother thinking of other ways to do things when one exists? Once upon a time there were other proposals for style sheets and document formats. – Incognito Commented Jan 27, 2012 at 18:19
- 3 @jhocking It's practical (people have done prior work here), it's answerable(there's lots of answers already), and it's an actual problem I'm facing: alternative means to describe web documents than using HTML parsers and CSS layout engines. I want to find prior work before creating something else. – Incognito Commented Jan 27, 2012 at 18:59

Possible alternatives:
- Adobe Flash (via Martin Beckett)
- AXR specification
- HAML (via galador)
- Java Applets
- JavaScript using the <canvas> element (via Czarek)
- PDF — Supports hyperlinks (via Peter Taylor)
- SASS (via galador)
- Sencha Ext JS 4 — has a number of good layout managers and containers, and the code to define those can be defined in a quite declarative manner similar to the JSON format (via herzmeister)
- Silverlight XAML (via Emmad Kareem)
- XSL/XSLT (via ben)
- SVG
- 6 HAML and SASS compile down to HTML and CSS, so I'm not sure they're valid options here. – sevenseacat Commented Jan 28, 2012 at 13:21
- 1 The problem with most of those is the content is not discoverable by search engines. – Rob Commented Dec 2, 2012 at 13:50
- Should x-tags be in this list? – Florian Margaine Commented Dec 3, 2012 at 7:38
- There are html and css frameworks that are extremely relevant to this question even though they compile into html css, view: bem, oocss, mvcss, less, smacss, stylus – Sam Adams Commented Aug 8, 2014 at 6:43
HAML and SASS are not alternatives to HTML. They are server-side languages that create HTML output. AXR is an alternative to HTML in the making. The AXR site says if you want to help out you can http://axr.vg. GRML is also an alternative to HTML, although I am not advocating to use it or not to use it. I am merely stating a fact. It hasn't been updated in 8 years and doesn't support any browsers but it's own. http://www.codeproject.com/Articles/3486/An-alternative-to-HTML-and-current-web-browsers
