Longer extension service worker lifetimes

Starting in Chrome 110 (in beta as of February 7, 2023), extension service workers stay alive as long as they’re receiving events. This corrects a timing problem in the previous implementation of extension service workers. It was possible for timeouts to occur when new events were in the event queue and for the timeouts to […]

Scrollend, a new JavaScript event

Before the scrollend event, there was no reliable way to detect that a scroll was complete. This meant that events would fire late or while a user’s finger was still down on the screen. This unreliability in knowing when scroll has actually ended, led to bugs and a poor experience for the user. Before document.onscroll […]

Basic offline page for web apps on Chrome Android

Installed platform apps can be launched even when offline. In this situation they often include a page letting the user know internet access is not available. Some developers even create a full set of features that can be used while offline. With web apps, the capability to work offline is more recent; it became possible […]

Offscreen Documents in Manifest V3

To replace functionality in the transition from background pages to extension service workers, developers can use the chrome.offscreen API and manifest permission starting in Chrome 109. Requesting this permission allows for the creation of off-screen documents to use DOM APIs without obtrusively opening new windows or tabs that interrupt the user experience. The chrome.offscreen API […]

Control your drop caps with CSS initial-letter

The art of styling drop caps has been around for hundreds, if not thousands of years. Its use in print styles to signify the start of a new section or chapter can be seen through history. But, it’s always been problematic to style in the digital age. There hasn’t been a “clean” solution to styling […]

Project Fugu is a cross company effort to close gaps in the web’s capabilities, enabling new classes of applications to run on the web. More concretely, this means adding new APIs to browsers that app developers can use to enable previously impossible use cases. What APIs does your browser of choice support? What web applications […]

Iframe credentialless: Easily embed iframes in COEP environments

Iframe credentialless is enabled by default from Chrome version 110. It solves the most common complaint developers working with Cross-Origin-Embedder-Policy (COEP) have: embedding third-party iframes that do not set COEP. It was previously available as an origin trial from version 106 to 108, and known as anonymous iframe. # Why we need COEP Some web […]

Cookie Expires and Max-Age attributes now have upper limit

As of Chrome release M104 (August 2022) cookies can no longer set an expiration date more than 400 days in the future. This change does not impact session cookies—cookies that do not explicitly set an expiration date with Max-Age or Expires—as these are instead cleared when the browsing session ends. With this change, Chrome caps […]
