It’s shocking how the motivation behind almost every single bad tech bill is about hating LGBTQ people and specifically trans people

The great thing about Scroll-Driven Animations is that they work with your existing CSS animations.

The framework to get started is simple:

1. Take an existing animation
2. Drop the duration
3. Set the animation-timeline to view() or scroll()

scroll-driven-animations.style has a free video course

So. Anchor Positioning and DevTools …

I sat together with The Hype™ tonight and this is what we built in 2 hours.

Main takeaway from this experiment is that it still requires a “Subject Matter Expert” (in this case: me) to build this, instructing The Hype™ what to do (and sometimes how to do it).

Dear God, what have we done? Maybe adding this was a mistake?

But seriously clever (mis)use of this! And surprisingly little code!

Make custom elements behave with scoped registries  |  Blog  |  Chrome for Developers You can now encapsulate custom elements.

🎉 I'm so excited that scoped custom element registries is landing in Chrome and Edge! 🥳

This solves one of the biggest complaints with the web components APIs: the global tag name namespace.

Standards is a long game though: I first proposed this in 2017! 😲

Hell yeah, brother

Element-Scoped View Transitions are gonna be **SO GOOD**

There’s still some details to settle, but the main thing is there: run VTs on a subtree of the DOM, allowing parallel VTs.

And with `view-transition-scope` you can limit the scope of `view-transition-name` values, allowing VTs to be nested.

border-shape can handle both insets and outsets, so you can do effects like this chevron nav (corner-shape can't do both).

This means you get a perfectly-wrapping focus ring without needing to manage z-index or having it partially covered due to overlap.

Excitingly, Chrome Canary recently added support for <meta name="text-scaling"> behind a flag.

What is it? It's something that we're all going to start using on our websites to improve accessibility. Here's a blog post with more info. www.joshtumath.uk/posts/2026-0...

This is one way to trivially spot discrimination. Racism, antisemitism, transphobia, etc. the belief systems universally require a cognitive dissonance of simultaneously believing "they're terrifying and superhuman, they must be stopped!" and "these are subhumans, they must be stopped!"

What an amazing year it's been for CSS! 😅

I'm so proud of the team and all of our collaborators working on other engines for what's been accomplished in 2026. ❤️

Scrollytelling on Steroids With Scroll-State Queries | CSS-Tricks Unconvinced of the value of scrollytelling? Alright, skeptic, let’s first warm up with some common use cases for scroll-based styling.

Wow! Really fun, creative use of scroll-state queries, style queries, and scroll-driven animations from Lee Meyer

There’s a lot of cases where I needed this, so I’m very excited to seeing `random()` come to CSS.

While trying it out, however, I found the caching strategy options to be very confusing … so I am proposing to rename some of the keywords: github.com/w3c/csswg-dr...

A stochastic terror campaign against anyone who is trans or gender nonconforming.

We wake up with this fear, and we go to bed with this fear. And it weighs on us every minute of our lives. Exactly as intended.

And most institutions not only don't protect us, they protect the aggressors.

At the CSS WG meeting, we're discussing possibly natively doing fit-text in CSS. Send us your use cases (with screenshots/links)!

Do you ever need to fit multi-line text?
Do you ever need to fit non-text inline elements (e.g. icons)?
Do you adjust font-size, letter-spacing, or both?

Good morning and happy Sunday 🐴 🥰

Just witnessed Pixel, having emerged from the cat room after taking a particularly noxious dump, sniff the air dubiously then turn tail and return to her litter box to bury matters further.

Thanks for the courtesy flush, Pixel!

We're working on fit-text-width and container shrink-to-fit proposals separately to meet these use cases. I think these are common cases, but don't solve all the use cases for wrapping detection.

✨ It’s that time of year! The State of JavaScript 2025 survey is currently running. 😄

I take the survey every year. It’s a great way to keep up with all of the new features and APIs that have come to browsers in the past year.

We often hear that folks want "wrap detection" in CSS (i.e. when a flex item shifts into a position where it wraps over to the next line)

What is a real-world example of a use-case you would need this for?
