It seems Apple is starting to work on Houdini CSS Paint API on WebKit: https://bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi?id=190217

Next week many igalians will be on tour: https://www.igalia.com/2018/10/15/Conference-season-is-upon-us.html

Igalia will have an important representation during W3C TPAC in Lyon, and I’ll be giving a talk about CSS and how to contribute to its evolution on the W3C Developer Meetup: https://www.w3.org/2018/10/Meetup/

My first Firefox patch that actually has some code landed yesterday: https://hg.mozilla.org/mozilla-central/rev/4e07d3243403 😀

Heading to A Coruña for a new edition of the Web Engines Hackfest at Igalia headquarters. Getting ready for an amazing event and willing to meet all the incredible folks that are coming. 🙂

Let’s just import a few Mozilla tests from WPT related to flex/grid alignment and positioned children into Chromium… Finally most of them fail due 2 already known bugs and 3 new ones: https://chromium-review.googlesource.com/c/chromium/src/+/1233555 😞

[css-grid] Starting in Chromium 69 you might get a warning if you use percentage rows in a grid container with indefinite height. Check if your site is affected in beta/canary and update it accordingly if needed. More about this topic in my last post https://blogs.igalia.com/mrego/2018/08/10/changes-on-css-grid-layout-in-percentages-and-indefinite-height/
