Interop 2026

Chris Coyier Chris Coyier on

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).

  • Anchor Positioning
  • Advanced attr()
  • Container Style Queries
  • contrast-color()
  • Custom Highlights
  • Dialog and popover additions
  • Fetch Uploads and Ranges
  • getAllRecords() for IndexedDB
  • JSPI for Wasm
  • Media pseudo-classes
  • Navigation API
  • Scoped Custom Element Registries
  • Scroll-driven Animations
  • Scroll Snap
  • shape()
  • View Transitions
  • Web Compat
  • WebRTC
  • WebTransport
  • CSS Zoom

I’m a fan of all of it but of course I’m extra happy for the newfangled CSS stuff. CSS shape() is just… fun. But of the less-flashy features on the list, I like how Jake says:

Again, these are less headline-grabbing than the shiny new features, but it’s these edge cases where us web developers lose hours of our time. Frustrating, frustrating, hours.
