When CSS Says 'Yes' but Browsers Say 'LOL No'

CSS treats @supports as context-blind, and that leads to surprising (and misleading) behavior in real browsers. This article showcases examples when @supports doesn't work as expected and explores the reasons. :: Blog post at Alvaro Montoro's Personal Website.

CSS Nesting

...

I have a project where I can now use CSS Nesting in production and oh, it makes so many things nicer!

There are a lot of cases where you’d normally have to duplicate many class names for child selectors, which can now just be wrapped by one selector.

It also makes the structure of the rules more logical/clearer to read and can help group things together in a CSS file.

The implementers did a great job removing the requirement of nested selectors starting with a symbol, too 👌
