Main things about HTML5 are
- Instead of tons of Divs, you have more specific elements, like Main/Article/Header/Footer
- You can apply and use your own attributes and use them in JS/CSS, like <article data-category="cheese"> ... etc ... </article> <style> article[data-category='cheese'] { /* etc */ } </style>
- www.caniuse.com will let you know if you can actually use it safely.
- lesscss.org/ is awesome

There are some other stuff on top of that that you'll need to learn if you want to do it as a job though, give me a shout if you want a list of stuff to learn to be a front-end dev.

I'll have a bash through and see if I enjoy it and then go from there!
