What is Personalization?

Personalization involves tailoring the user experience to meet the needs and preferences of the individual user.

For example, some people:

• Cannot process numeric information (dyscalculia)
  and others understand numbers better than words
• With significant language disabilities use symbols to represent words
• Need (or want) simplified user interfaces

Goals

• Enable users to use adaptive widgets and user preferences to customize their user experience.
• Enable content authors to provide a default design and enable user personalization with minimal work.

How

Define personalization semantics into HTML.

Enable authors to add extra semantic information about content to support personalization.

Enable user agents for people with cognitive and learning disabilities.

• provide extra support
• transforming the user interface - add, remove, or adapt content

Personalization Semantics

• Attribute-based mode.
• Personalization Semantic is made of a vocabulary of properties and their values.
• Using HTML extension mechanism data- to implement temporarily.

Specification Modules

The Specification consists of three modules and an Explainer,

• Content: vocabulary of terms to enhance web content
• Help and Support: vocabulary of terms to enable additional support for different user scenarios
• Tools: for enabling user agents to better support users

Working Draft Publications

• Personalization Semantics Explainer
• Personalization Semantics Content Module

Examples of Personalization Semantics

Personalization Semantics is made of a vocabulary of properties and their values:

data-property="Value"

NOTE: The HTML data-* attribute syntax is not intended to be used for long-term wide-scale features. The task force is using this approach at the moment to gain implementation experience and demonstrate the usefulness of Personalization Semantics in practice, using this HTML extension mechanism.
