Web platform features explorer - April 2014 release notes

New in Chrome

The following features are now available in Chrome:

EXT_texture_filter_anisotropic WebGL extension: The EXT_texture_filter_anisotropic extension for WebGL 1.0 and 2.0 contexts adds anisotropic filtering (AF). AF improves the quality of mipmapped texture access when viewing a textured primitive at an oblique angle.
font-variant-ligatures: The font-variant-ligatures CSS property sets how characters can be visually combined for readability or stylistic reasons.
String normalize(): The normalize() method of strings returns a Unicode normal form of a string as a new string. More than one code point sequence can represent the same characters. You can use the normalize() method to find canonically or compatibly equivalent strings.

The following features are now available in Firefox:

box-sizing: The box-sizing CSS property sets whether an element's width and height are calculated based on the content-box, which does not count the size of borders or padding, or border-box, which does count them.
Gamepad: The navigator.getGamepads() API accesses and responds to signals from game controllers.
<input type="color">: The <input type="color"> HTML element shows a color picker from which users can choose a color value.
<input type="number">: The <input type="number"> HTML element represents numeric input data.
Intl: The Intl API provides language sensitive string comparison, number formatting, date and time formatting, and more.
OES_texture_half_float WebGL extension: The OES_texture_half_float extension for WebGL 1.0 contexts adds texture formats with 16-bit (also known as half float) and 32-bit floating-point components.
Promise (initial support): A promise represents an asynchronous operation which eventually succeeds or fails.
String codePointAt() and fromCodePoint(): The codePointAt() method returns the numeric value of the UTF-16 code point at an index of the string. The fromCodePoint() method returns a string created from one or more code points.
