JavaScript Module Retry: What Chrome 156 Changes

JavaScript Module Retry: What Chrome 156 Changes

A page can be working perfectly one second and fail the next. The main application has loaded. The user clicks a button that opens a feature loaded with import().

For years, the conversation around web tracking revolved around cookies. Third-party cookies were blocked. Browsers introduced storage partitioning. Fingerprinting became a bigger privacy concern.

PHP Critical RCE Fix: What Website Owners Must Do Now

There is a question worth answering before touching a PHP server after a critical security release: Which PHP process is serving the website? Not which PHP version was installed last month.

CSS Typed Arithmetic: How calc() Works in Modern CSS

CSS has been getting better at doing things that once felt like they belonged in JavaScript. We already use calc() for responsive widths, spacing, positioning, and typography.

Accessible Web Forms: 7 Mistakes Designers Should Avoid

Accessible Web Forms: 7 Mistakes Designers Should Avoid

A form can look perfectly polished and still be difficult to use. The fields line up. The spacing feels balanced. The button has the right color. The validation animation looks great. Then someone tries to complete it without a mouse. Or with a screen reader. Or after zooming the page to 200%. Or simply after […]

Webflow MCP Guide: What AI Agents Can Actually Do in 2026

Webflow MCP Guide: What AI Agents Can Actually Do in 2026

JPEG XL for Web Images: Is It Finally Worth Using?

For years, JPEG XL has occupied an awkward position in web development. The format had an impressive feature set. It could compress photographs efficiently, preserve images losslessly, handle HDR and wide color, progressively decode large images, and even losslessly transcode existing JPEG files.

Figma Specs Guide: Give AI Agents Your Design Rules

AI can look at a design and produce something that seems convincing in seconds. That is also the problem. A generated interface can have the right buttons, the right layout, and even the right brand colors while quietly breaking the rules that make a product feel consistent. Maybe the spacing is wrong.
