Turns out `anchor-scope` is pretty darn useful for button/menu setups that will appear multiple times on the same page.

All the big browser makers (and Igalia, a major contributor) dropped their timed blog posts announcing Interop 2026. I’ll link to Apple’s because I like how they used column-width on the feature list and I’m stealing that (in case you see this post directly). I’m a fan of all of it but of course I’m […]

The GOAT JavaScript library jQuery has gone 4.0 coinciding with, from what I hear, was a lovely reunion party. It’s not wildly different, but it’s gone full ESM and dropped a bunch of old stuff. Minified and gzipped it’s 27.6 kB. Version 3.7.1, the last before this release, was 30.5 kB — so it’s nice […]

I ran across this website Very Good Components the other day and thought it was a neat idea to have a design gallery that wasn’t whole websites but individual components.

The Canary version of React has a special component for ViewTransitions. Does it help?

I feel like “streaming” will be more and more of a concept in 2026. We can stream HTML, but rarely do. With AI APIs these days, we’re seeing streaming much more commonly. We want to see that LLM kick out an answer word-by-word, as the perceived performance is better that way. What about a JSON […]

Firefox 147 just came out, and the flagship developer feature is clearly anchor positioning support, bringing that “to the baseline” as we’re supposed to say these days. That rules, but I’m also very hyped about CSS module scripts. Remember, they are a way of importing a stylesheet in JavaScript, that is, the only decent way […]

Can you keep a video playing as a view transitions happens? Yes and no. Mostly yes.
