Dearest #CSSWG friends, do you know if there has ever been a proposal for a ‘word’ unit, that’s as wide as the average width of all words? I really want this unit.

at the @CSSWG.org (@CSSWG) F2F (face to face) meeting^1, hosted by @Apple.com (@Apple) in Cupertino. Not counting at #w3cTPAC, the prior #CSSWG F2F meeting I went to was 2.5y ago, also in Cupertino, and before that 2019 in SF. Good to see so many longterm colleagues in-person.

New blog post: “Fit-to-Width Status Update: Prototype and Issues”
https://blog.kizu.dev/text-fit-update/
In which I present the current state of things and share links and descriptions of issues I opened in the CSS Working Group’s GitHub following the Chrome team’s feedback.

That feeling when publishing 45 photos, where you write descriptions and alts for all of them, alongside editing and optimizing for publishing, haha, oof. :blobcatfearful:
Anyways! I just published photos I took a bit more than a year ago in A Coruña, during our #CSSWG F2F outing: https://pixey.org/c/867866092272512417

New blog post: “Fit-to-Width Discussions & Feedback”
https://blog.kizu.dev/fit-to-width-discussions-and-feedback/
A bit less than a year ago, I published my “Fit-to-Width Text: A New Technique” article. Since then, CSSWG resolved to start working on it, and, following this, two things happened: a discussion of its potential accessibility issues, and an intent to prototype it from Google.
I have some thoughts, feedback, and ideas about both of these, so here is a post!

How do we evolve CSS logical shorthands? · There are options, but one major roadblock https://ilo.im/1630tm_____

OK, #CSSWG folks, whose brilliant idea was it to make auto-generated heading IDs for anchor links in the CSS spec end with ① or ② or ⑤ characters (for the 1st, 2nd, or 5th heading in a section without an otherwise specified ID).
Looks very cute in a URL bar, but gets copy & pasted as URL encoded character barf. And then there's the likely screen-reader mangling of special characters.
This had better be for Editor's drafts only & prompt a warning to add custom IDs before publication.

A reminder that #CSSnesting is still a working draft in the #W3C under the #CSSWG. Please mind #webcompat when using this relatively new feature. IOW, don't make your #CSS break because you assumed everyone right now is using the latest version of #Chrome / #Chromium, #Firefox, #Safari, or #Edge. They might not even be using a mainstream #browser to visit your website (I am using #PaleMoon for example)... :seija_coffee:
