@KevinKelchen Ah, I see. This _should_ actually work, as long as the proper CORS headers are set, but it doesn’t work in practice: bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/iss….
@KevinKelchen For WebView support, please follow bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/iss….
@KevinKelchen The experience is distinct from downloading, though. It’s indeed a share to another app for onward processing, not a download. For “download”, the Native File System API is more of a game changer: web.dev/native-file-sy….
Looked a little closer at the Web Share API—Level 2 (that allows for the sharing of files:w3c.github.io/web-share/leve…9) today and discovered two interesting issues:
🤝 Cross-origin sharing:crbug.com/1039679F.
🤝 Sharing “niche” MIME types like SVGcrbug.com/1039724
@oliverW42355990 I agree. I think this is more of an Android issue at this point, though, but I will hear around if there’s anything we can do on the Chrome side. crbug.com/1039724
@oliverW42355990 In case you’re interested, my issue concerns cross-origin sharing: crbug.com/1039679.
@oliverW42355990 As promised getting back to you. I actually could share the example SVG from your CodePen. Note that a lot of apps like Hangouts don’t accept SVGs, but, for example, if you share to Gmail, it works, as proven by the screenshot. pic.twitter.com/obJNMkLH4b

@j9t See medium.com/dev-channel/le… for _some_ user research on this question. No absolute usage numbers, though.
philwalton 🚀 New article: how I use service workers to cut my site’s HTML payload size (and FCP) in half!
This is a fairly advanced technique, but it’s one of the best ways I know to improve perf—and users with limited data plans will thank you! 🙏

jimmyg 1/ Today marks the twentieth anniversary of the introduction of Microsoft’s Internet Explorer 5 for Mac. This was both the most important release of Internet Explorer for the Mac, and the last release. Here are some anecdotes and thoughts from an insider’s perspective.
