Der norwegische Diplomat Terje Rød-Larsen ist der Schlüssel zu Epsteins großem Fußabdruck in Wien. Ich habe wochenlang zum „International Peace Institute“ in Wien recherchiert.

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
We'd love your feedback!

This evening, @paolo.ricciuti.me will join @codetv.dev's The Web Dev Podcast to talk about our work on the Svelte Custom Renderers Initiative! Check it out if you’re interested in rendering beyond the DOM with Svelte 🙌

Recently, someone posted on LinkedIn that skip links are often broken because their target elements are missing a `tabindex` attribute. I was really surprised to see that because I thought that was an issue of the past. That's why I decided to test it.

Epic!

Every Node.js developer has lost a background job to a server restart.
We just open-sourced @platformatic/job-queue, a new queue library built for reliability from day one.
Deduplication, retries, request/response, graceful shutdown. All out of the box.

I just backed Build Awesome on @kickstarter.com www.kickstarter.com/projects/fon...
JavaScript's date object has been tricky for years, but that is changing.
The NEW Temporal API brings,
🌍 Easily handle time zones
📆 Precise date math
🕒 Parse ISO strings without errors
⌛ Durations, date ranges, and more.
Start experimenting 👇

Oh right! I forgot about animation-range, great stuff!
I will update the article and demo tonight. Thank you!
If only Safari supported `viewport-fit=cover` in Portrait Mode on iOS. The combo with the safe-area insets gives you full control over which colors to use where.
(For completeness: They support `viewport-fit=cover` in Landscape mode on iOS. And on iPadOS they do nothing but the cover behavior)
Thanks Manuel! I wasn't aware the frustration was so obvious, but oh well, it's the truth 😄
I plan to publish more on grooovinger.com/notes
(with the occasional posts around Svelte too!)
The attacks on Iran are illegal
They constitute aggression
Pre-emptive self-defence would only be legal if an attack by Iran was imminent and that’s simply not the case
Iran now has the right to self-defence
Every country can support Iran in exercising its right to self-defence
It bugged me that it is not obvious how Safari 26 decides which background color to use for its browser chrome. I wrote about what I found out so far, including a trick to apply a custom theme color and a demo:

CSS is getting native randomness 🎲
random() and random-item() are coming with:
- per-element randomness
- step-based ranges
- shared value options
- zero JS required
I wrote an overview of the feature, how it works, and what browsers support it.

I don't know if anyone actually subscribed to my blog via RSS, but I just noticed I've been listing "draft" posts in the RSS feed as well. Whoopsi 🙈
grooovinger.com/rss.xml now without all the draft posts 😄
#TIL Safari 26 supports local overrides for network requests.
webkit.org/web-inspecto... suggests this feature existed since January 2020, can this be true?
SvelteKit 2 now fully supports Vite 8
SvelteKit 3 will require it - giving additional optimizations and functionality. E.g. SvelteKit 3 will use @rolldown.rs hook filters to spend more compilation time in rust and less in JavaScript. And SvelteKit 3 adapters use only rolldown without esbuild
Style sticky elements when they are stuck
It's pretty awesome that we can now (somewhat) check if an element ist stuck. If used in a progressive enhancement manner, you might be able to use it in production today.

Have you seen our Olympic medal count visualization?
BTW: To generate the Olympic medal scarfs, we render it on HTML canvas. A powerful drawing technology, but inherently non-interactive. We wanted the medals to be clickable. So: How do you render an interactive canvas?
A technical deep-dive #Svelte
What makes Svelte the right choice for modern frontend projects? And when is it not? In this blog post, @paolo.ricciuti.me breaks down the advantages and limitations of Svelte, and what that means for your next product decision.

Out with :nth-child(), in with :sibling-index()! Just so satisfying to use.
* no Firefox yet
Firefox 148 is out now, and adds some great web platform features:
🎉 The HTML Sanitizer API
🎉 CSS shape()
🎉 Trusted Types
🎉 Nav API's addHandler
🎉 Iterator zip & zipKeyed
🎉 ancestorOrigins
And more!
developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/M...
The Sanitizer API landed in Firefox 148, along with element.setHTML().
This lets you fully configure how HTML strings are cleaned as they're parsed.

What is the agreed-upon minimum resolution? 320px, 360px?
It’s complicated.

New in Svelte: Comments inside component/element tags!
I am so happy this landed!
