@briankardell @openuicg LOL, I didn’t know what I expected. But thanks! 😆

@SaraSoueidan @zachleat Thanks for the reminder, Sara! Happy birthday, Zach, and thanks for sharing so much of what you know, learn, and produce! The Web’s a better place for folks like you. (In the last sentence and the second half of the penultimate,

@m_yxnk The documentation on @MozDevNet on the custom elements topic is brilliant: https://t.co/9Zpad9JK9O.

@alexainslie @ebidel @steren @ChromiumDev Apple is definitely doing very interesting things here. (My pet peeve is with these alerts popping up randomly and immediately being reactive even if they’ve been displayed only a split second.) I also like Andr

@m_yxnk Yeah, that’s more or less what the toggle I linked to is doing, just wrapped as a custom element that authors can configure via attributes.

@patak_dev @Snugug @vite_js Filed as https://t.co/DvmZnyvmlP for interested folks following this. The reason I need this is `dark-mode-toggle`: https://t.co/hsbmOLC3ys.

@patak_dev @Snugug @vite_js Awesome, thanks, I will file an issue.

@AaronGustafson @diekus Widgets? 💀 I just checked https://t.co/b8MD8ocuHQ, but couldn’t find anything. Do you have an early sneak preview link?

via Twitter Web App

@steren @ebidel @ChromiumDev Yeah, we probably don’t want to go back to the old Android model, but bundling several permissions that are needed together would make a lot of sense. https://t.co/FZ4DhVNT6x

via Twitter Web App

@ebidel @ChromiumDev There is definitely thinking on optimizing this area. I’m aware of the First Run Permissions Prompt Explainer (https://t.co/IXqGmBovld) work by @AaronGustafson and @diekus. And only yesterday I re-plugged semantic permission bundles:

@Sushubh @ChromiumDev Personally I don’t like such pre-prompts. It is one of the UX patterns that we observed, though: https://t.co/Htn4rv6ZCY.

@diekus I’m a Mac user, but tried the app on Windows devices as well. I’m happy so far with the experience on both. See https://t.co/mMQFBTXWIo for an improvement idea. It sometimes takes a moment to reactivate, so maybe that’s a bug?

@diekus I’m using #WCO in SVGcode (https://t.co/KkNtcSZGbS) and—while biased—I think it looks gorgeous and maximizes the available screen real estate. I use it as a progressive enhancement (https://t.co/qSCUmQbows), and the user only pays the download

@zcorpan @htmlstandard Yeah, showing a note that appears when an ID isn’t found sounds like a great idea for a feature. Maybe an index of all IDs that ever existed and the snapshots they appear in could make this even immediately actionable?

via Twitter for iPhone

@zcorpan @htmlstandard Thanks for digging those up. Of course nothing is “lost” as in gone, I simply meant the links in bugs etc. don’t work anymore.

@adatto_uk @zcorpan @htmlstandard Oh yes, that’s a good one, too! Obsolete link: https://t.co/wUd5L5nJT1.

@zcorpan @htmlstandard Interesting! The downside of a living standard is that old links (https://t.co/I1ZLngXc4G) don’t work anymore, but luckily for now it’s still documented on MDN: https://t.co/3TLtJR5zW0. This would have been a nice desktop feature, b

@zsviczian @excalidraw @dluzar Oh, this looks super interesting. Have users asked for handwriting recognition as well, or is it purely about getting a vector version of what’s written? If the former, there’s an API that you might be interested in: htt

@AnaestheticsApp I just recently added polyfill support for this to SVGcode: https://t.co/u97uFKSGWn. It’s working great, try https://t.co/KkNtcSZGbS on Firefox. But of course agreed, it would be way better if it supported the feature natively. Tracked
