About
Dublin Core is a metadata element set used to describe documents and other digital or physical resources in a standardized way.
It defines 15 core elements including title, creator, subject, description, publisher, and date, and provides a simple, extensible schema that supports cross-domain resource description and interoperability across different systems.
Microformats2 is the second generation of the 
Microformats specification designed to make publishing and parsing structured data in 
HTML easier for both authors and developers.
It introduces a simplified class naming system, supports formats including h-card, h-entry, h-event, and h-product, provides built-in 
JSON parsing models, and improves backward compatibility and extensibility.
