@bramus Ik ben aan het knutselen met scroll-driven animations, maar in je voorbeeld werkt de font-size animatie van de h2 niet. Hij zou van 2rem naar 1.5rem moeten gaan, maar doet dat in zowel scroll als view niet. https://scroll-driven-animations.style/demos/shrinking-header-shadow/css/#

I'm playing around with Anchor positioning but I can't figure out why one thing works and the other doesn't. Anyone knows why? https://codepen.io/rickdoesburg/pen/XJWNYNL #css

I was reading up on WCAG 1.4.4 (resizing text) and noticed that web.dev uses a lot of fixed font sizes (px). 16px for the body, 28px for headings. Does this mean they fail this criterion, or am I missing something? cc: @argyleink @rachelandrew #accessibility

People distribute the impression that you would learn accessibility by reading WCAG and if it just were easier, we had an accessible world.

This is wrong. You don’t learn to drive by reading the manual of your car and understanding every nuance. You don’t learn to cook well just by reading recipes.

You have to practically apply knowledge and best practices. You have to do the work. And then things click into place because you have routine doing it. (1/2)

Chrome appears to be first to have hit all the 2024 Interop #accessibility test goals:

Interop tests (which you can read to balance against the Chrome claim):

While I want more (more done, more aggressive goals, etc), this is good. Kudos to the team for getting there.
