Principles behind the design of web APIs:
- Put user needs first (Priority of Constituencies)
- It should be safe to visit a web page
- Trusted user interface should be trustworthy
- Ask users for meaningful consent when appropriate
- Support the full range of devices and platforms (Media Independence)

- The web must be an environmentally sustainable platform
- The web is transparent
- The web is multi-browser, multi-OS and multi-device
- People should be able to render web content as they want
