About

Humans.txt is a plain text file that allows website creators to identify and credit the people involved in developing a website.

It may include information about developers, designers, and technologies used on the site, and is typically referenced through the <link rel="author"> HTML element.

Resource Description Framework (RDF) is a W3C standard model for describing and exchanging graph-based data on the web.

It enables linking and integration of data across different vocabularies, represents information as subject-predicate-object triples forming directed graphs, and supports serialization formats such as RDF/XML for XML-based data exchange as well as Turtle and JSON-LD.
