#webstandards
I'm so proud of the https://w3c.github.io/hr-time/#sec-concepts section. Every time I see someone using a duration or "moment" in another spec, I imagine the "a number of milliseconds" it would have been before that new section, and smile. #bragging #WebStandards

This could be a search of the web site or application; a way of searching or filtering search results on the current web page; or a global or Internet-wide search function.โ

You know I typically only take the piss out of @jaffathecake but I honestly really respect the work he and his team are doing on #viewTransitions
I don't even know if I care about the feature, but his dedication to the #webStandards process and immaculate communication of it is fucking admirable! #careerGoals
Do slippymaps next Jake!
>SPA view transitions land in Chrome 111 https://developer.chrome.com/blog/spa-view-transitions-land/
It's such a huge failure of the #webStandards bodies that slippy maps are STILL not a standardized part of the #webPlatform.
If #Google actually wanted to advance the #openWeb they'd standardize #googleMaps, but I'm certain they don't want to give up that #monopoly.
@brianleroux that's more of an "untraining" isn't it?
Do you think there is a market for web standards focused training?
Not necessarily counter to React/modern JS but rather as a path to building more performant, accessible and resilient applications. Maybe even starting w those tools and teaching how to migrate out.
we need more web focused conferences in north america.
any would be nice, in fact.
not react conferences. *web* conferences.

Because our work w https://enhance.dev is based on a dynamic runtime process you can do things like talk to a database without spinners or API calls.
Inspired by Rails scaffold check out a modern approach to CRUDL with basic #webstandards like #html, #css and #js --in that order.

In my latest article, I get my head around the latest trends in Virtual DOM, by checking out Vue.js creator Evan You's keynote at JSworld. I now better understand why Vue (and Svelte and Lit) are better for the future of #javascript than React. #webstandards https://thenewstack.io/vue-2023/
The good folks at Logrocket let me on their podcast to talk about Enhance.

nice take one Enhance herein:
"Progressive enhancement, which is providing a working page with HTML from the server and enhancing functionality client-side with JavaScript, is an old and effective technique that somewhat fell out of favor as JS-centric frameworks took center stage, but the Enhance framework uses this approach without sacrificing developer experience."

wrt to the inevitable difficult to swallow discourse around #react these days

๐ซ โaria-owns is surprisingly strong magic
aria-owns allows developers to restructure the parent-child relationships in the accessibility tree. This means that screen reader users may experience a different semantic structure and meaning to other users when they navigate and interact with content using their screen readers virtual/browse mode.โ

It's kind of sad to find out that some leaders of the #webstandards movement are also arrogant assholes.
General distribution I guess.
feels extra right starting with pure standards based html.
not a dialect like react that compiles to javascript that eventually renders html.
not markdown that compiles into html.
justโฆhtml.
On W3C re-launch
"W3C has a long tradition of working to provide a web that supports participation by disabled people. This extends to participation by disabled people within W3C to develop the specifications and guidelines which improve accessibility. TPGi have been actively engaged for the past 15 years as Specification Editors, Working Group participants and Chairs, and we are committed and excited to actively participate in the W3C of the future."

trying to stay positive that team react is coming around to backend rendering aka 'ssr' after years of downplaying, gaslighting and outright hostility towards the proven practice
its tough, and I genuinely am unsure what the high road looks like here. good for them? cause it sure feels more like ๐
@besenwagen ๐ Eric, #WebStandards work should come with a health warning. Anything I can do to provide support give me a yell!
If GitHub is to be believed there are 100M devs now. Up from 20M a decade ago.
I bet most are frontend devs. Or aspiring anyhow.
We need to start centering real web standards more now than ever. Not transpiling. Not dialects that compile. Or things will only get worse.
โWCAG SC 1.3.1:Info and Relationships is often cited as a reason why strong and em must be used and Technique H49:Using semantic markup to mark emphasized or special text provides examples of โUsing the em and strong elements to emphasize textโ In practice their use does nothing for screen reader users at least, nothing that the i and b elements donโt provide (with their default styles).โ
