About

Dublin Core is a metadata element set used for documents and other objects.

Twitter Cards are a metadata format used by X, originally Twitter, that enables links in posts to display rich previews with images, videos, and interactive media to increase engagement and traffic.

They are defined via specialized meta tags embedded in web pages, support multiple card types, and enable previews such as articles with images and descriptions, app install prompts, and embedded audio or video players with playback controls.
