microformats are extensions to HTML for marking up people, organizations, events, locations, blog posts, products, reviews, resumes, recipes etc. Sites use microformats to publish a standard API that is consumed and used by search engines, browsers, and other tools. See what-are-microformats for more.

Specifications
Current, stable microformats open standard specifications.
- new! microformats2 is stable, has a test suite, publishers, and interoperable implementations. start using it on public web pages and developing more parsers and applications.
In addition use well established microformats:
- hCalendar - events
- hCard - people, organizations, contacts
- rel-license - licensed content
- rel-nofollow - links in untrusted 3rd party content
- rel-tag - tag posts and pages by subject
- XFN - social relationships and rel-me links among profiles for the same person
- XMDP - define a microformat vocabulary / profile
- XOXO - outlines
Drafts
Drafts are newer microformats, which are still making their way through the process to become specifications. Implementers should be prepared to keep abreast of future developments and changes. Please watch the wiki pages for updates.
- adr - address location information
- geo - latitude & longitude location (WGS84 geographic coordinates)
- hAtom - blog posts and other date-stamped content
- hListing - listings for products or services
- hMedia - media info about images, video, audio
- hNews - news articles, extension of hAtom
- hProduct - products
- hRecipe - cooking+baking recipes
- hResume - individual resumes and CVs
- hReview - individual reviews and ratings

Exploratory Discussions
See: exploratory-discussions for details of research and analysis of real-world examples, existing formats, and brainstorming of possible new microformats, per the microformats process.
Design Patterns
Design patterns are common uses of markup across microformats.
- abbr-design-pattern
- class-design-pattern
- date-design-pattern
- datetime-design-pattern
- include-pattern
- value-class-pattern
- rel-design-pattern
Archived
Past specifications, drafts, and exploratory discussions which have either lacked (or lost) wide publishing support, implementation, or have been superceded by newer specs (see also when does it make sense to demote a microformat spec). These may eventually be retired, deprecated, or reincorporated into other exploratory discussions.
- hAudio
- rel-directory - link to web directories
- rel-enclosure - link to attachments (e.g. files) to download and cache
- robots exclusion
- VoteLinks
- xFolk - tagged links

User centric development
Tools, test cases, additional research
The first place to look for examples, code, and test cases is in the pages for each individual microformat. There are only a few cross-cutting tools and services that need to process more than one microformat. That section is intended for editors, parsers, validators, test cases, and other information relevant across multiple microformats.
