Yes that works! I didnβt realize it was under the Experimental Web Features flag so I was testing on a remote server with Origin Trial. This will save me a lot of time now π
I searched the Chrome flags but couldnβt find any. Didnβt check Edge yet though.
Well done! In Chrome I get an error when I use the βgridβ behavior. What behavior is this?

OWA has been singularly effective in winning letter-of-the-law chamge, and the action now lies with regulators. They meed reasons to believe *enforcing* the law is worth the effort, and your voice can make a difference. Read @open-web-advocacy.org's roundup to learn about the fights that matter:

How's the mobile CPU landscape evolving? Thanks to process node improvements, a mid-range Android from 2025 is (finally!) as fast as 2017's iPhone 8, but a low-end (~$100) smartphone isn't yet as speedy as a decade-old iPhone 6s.
