Open UI has been working on speccing out the focusgroup attribute: a declarative way to support roving focus & add keyboard nav to composite widgets like toolbars/menus

It's not federation, it's not a p2p mesh. It's a secret third thing: practical.

Container Timing - a new W3C performance metric - has migrated from Bloomberg to the WICG Github org 🎉
@jason-williams.co.uk made the Bloomberg Terminal use this web metric to measure human-perceived time to start apps. We've found it more useful than existing metrics.

Pretty major improvement to website security! For those that can't use this immediately, FF 148 also brings Trusted Types to newly baseline which can go a long way in helping prevent XSS.
Chromium also looks set to follow shipping Sanitizer soon (probably 147).
Only half-heartedly to be honest. It was originally part of a refactoring that got scrapped but the first tries showed that it won’t be simple to infer the right types. I’ll take this thread as motivation to look at it again tomorrow though 🚀
Are you open to a contribution around this? At the time I wasn’t sure whether this is aligned with your idea and obvs queriesOptions is a terrible name … 😅
What we are missing is a way to share multiple queries together with the combine function. QueryOptions allows to share the whole singular payload (incl. select) but there is no easy way (type-wise) to achieve the same for multiple queries (incl. combine), which is the single source for custom hooks
That’s great and matches my experience 100%. One thing I am curious about is how you see using custom hooks around useQueries, because there is no queriesOptions API that allows for easy sharing multiple queries?
Schema benchmarks are here 🚀

While specific runtime products may compete around features and performance, this kind of research on how to work around the inherent performance bottlenecks in web streams ultimately helps everyone.
That’s a very impressive list of fixes. 👏 Congrats to the team for shipping those.

👀 Chrome 145 DevTools has Soft Navigation markers
Nice DX improvement for building SPAs
I’ve noticed the same for EMs.

@jenson.org had similar thoughts. I recommend some of his talks on the topic, if you are up for it und fully agree with you. youtu.be/Mjup7Mrj7uU?...

"Generative AI" kind of fooled us into thinking that AI is synchronous, but async AI can have so much more value for us as developers. 🧵

This is one of my favorite things, data model explainers!
Makes me think of #rfc9110, which turned my head super fast. Instead of a technical document on http the protocol, a rfc on what the model of http is.

If you had to pick _one_, which web platform feature would you like in Firefox that isn't part of the Interop 2026 effort? hacks.mozilla.org/2026/02/laun...
border-shape can handle both insets and outsets, so you can do effects like this chevron nav (corner-shape can't do both).
This means you get a perfectly-wrapping focus ring without needing to manage z-index or having it partially covered due to overlap.

interface TabsProps { /** @renders* {Tab} */ children: React.ReactNode; } <Tabs> <Tab /> // ✅ Valid! <Button /> // 🚫 Error! </Tabs>
I built an ESLint plugin that enforces which components can be passed as children/props in React.
Annotate with a @renders annotation, get errors when the wrong component is passed.
