The CSS Working Group has just published the first public draft of the CSS Values and Units Level 5 Module. Although still in its early stages, this release introduces many new features and exciting improvements.
Here's a summary of some of the changes.
sadβ¦ developers have more empathy for the machine (network, main thread, perf metrics, loading times, etc etc etc)β¦
than they do for humans.
imagine if all of that brain power was spent on empathizing for users.
- accessibility wouldn't be an after thought
- UI wouldn't be annoying
- and more
but no;
more time is spent giving the machine what it wants and what keeps it happy
Hey there!
If you enjoy recent advancements in CSS like Container/Style Queries, Cascade Layers or Scope, and if you'd like to see more of this (e.g. State Queries), please consider sponsoring the work of the wonderful @mia, either by joining in on Open Collective (https://opencollective.com/oddbird-open-source) or by booking an online workshop with her: https://www.miriamsuzanne.com/
Standards work is expensive due to time investment and travel costs and so people need sponsoring, and her previous sponsorship ran out.
It was wonderful to finally see you live and on stage.
Thank you for your rapid but effective talk, as always.

Flying home after giving my first in-person talk @[email protected] following a four-year hiatus. Thank you @ppk @[email protected] for having me again. CSS Day remains one of the best web conferences out thereβGreat speakers, kind, nerdy audience, and friendly vibes. Until next time. π
I missed celebrating on the day itself.
But...
Saturday 18th May marks the FORTIETH anniversary of my arrival in France.
I arrived on Friday 18th May 1984, at about 5 in the morning, in a coach from London.
Best decision of my life and I have never looked back!
