position-area with View Transitions
CSS Anchor Positioning is a powerful tool, but one of the things that you cannot do natively (yet) is animating the position-area property. This blog post introduces a technique to animate position-area changes using View Transitions.
100vw is now scrollbar-aware (in Chrome 145+, under the right conditions)
From Chrome 145 onwards, 100vw will automatically subtract the size of the (vertical) scrollbar from it if you have forced the html element to always show a vertical scrollbar (using overflow[-y]: scroll) or if you reserve space for it (using scrollbar-gutter: stable). The same applies to vh with a horizontal scrollbar, as well as all small, large, and dynamic variants.
rdar:// Bug ID
If you read the Safari release notes – like the Safari 26.2 release notes – you see a lot of trailing “(12345678)”-mentions in the list of fixed bugs. These numbers are Apple-internal bug IDs, as used within Apple’s internal bug tracker (fka?) named “Radar”.
These numbers are not linked to anything because Radar is Apple-internal, so to external people these numbers are practically useless … or are they?
Once again, it has been an AMAZING year for CSS and UI. To celebrate this, we – the Chrome CSS/UI DevRel Team – created another edition of CSS Wrapped!
As an experiment to see if Modern CSS is up to the task, I recreated the Google Antigravity website with Modern CSS.
If you kinda understand Anchor Positioning, but it still surprises you from time to time, then most likely this is the missing piece of information: the Inset-Modified Containing Block (or IMCB for short).
