As mentioned in Part 1 (Javascript), Tekaris is currently undergoing recertification for our Microsoft Gold Partner Status. As a part of this, I was collecting topics addressed by possible questions and thought it might be helpful for others.

This post is targeting HTML5 and CSS3 aspects of the exam. See Part 1 for an overview of Javascript topics.

To get an overview, I have compiled a list of topics. Some are only listed by name, others have links which you can follow, others are even detailed with a few words.

HTML5

• Structuring documents with section, article element and associates
• Figure and Figcaption
• Canvas (Mostly manipulating it via Javascript, e.g. rotating and scaling)

Figure seemed to be important to Microsoft. During my exam, I even got the same question twice, one directly following the other. Only the answer had to be provided differently.

CSS3

• CSS multi-column layouts
• Positioning of elements using static, relative, absolute, fixed
• Text-shadow
• Text-transform
• -ms-flexbox
• CSS3 flexible box model
• -ms-grid Layout
• Exclusions such as -ms-wrap-flow, -ms-wrap-through and -ms-wrap-side
• CSS selectors
  • By class or ID
  • Child selector vs descendant selector
  • Negating selector expressions
  • Pseudo class selectors
• Linear-gradient

… and some others, of course 🙂

Hope that helps
