RDF

RDF is an abbreviation for Resource Description Format, an early-ish part of XML-related development efforts that became known as the Semantic Web, later rebranded as Linked Data. Microformats began in part as a reaction against the verbosity of RDF and extra technical layers. RDF developers eventually took some tips from Microformats in turn, and created RDFa and JSON-LD.
