📃 January 2023 release notes

Widely available

The following features are now widely available:

• column-span: The column-span CSS property controls whether a child element extends across all columns of a multi-column parent.
• line-break: The line-break CSS property sets how strictly to apply rules for wrapping text to new lines, especially for symbols and punctuation.
• min(), max(), and clamp(): The min() and max() CSS functions return the minimum or maximum of the arguments, while clamp() clamps a value to a given range.
• Numeric separators: To improve readability for numeric literals, underscores (_) can be used as separators. For example, 1_050.95 is equivalent to 1050.95.
• Pointer Events: Pointer events, such as pointerdown, and the PointerEvent API, represent general pointing inputs, from a wide range of devices, such as a mouse, pen or stylus, or touch with one or more fingers. Not to be confused with the pointer-events CSS property.
• Promise.allSettled(): The Promise.allSettled() static method waits for an array of promises to settle (resolve or reject).
• :read-only and :read-write: The :read-only and :read-write CSS pseudo-classes match elements that are read-only or read-write, respectively. For example, :read-only matches <input> and <textarea> elements with the readonly attribute.
• Resize observer: The ResizeObserver API observes and reacts to changes in the size of DOM elements.
• revert: The revert CSS keyword resets any property to its previous default, provided by either the user or browser stylesheets. For example, setting display: revert on a <div> will likely result in display: block, the browser default style. This is often confused with initial.
• Shadow parts: The part and exportparts HTML attributes expose elements of a shadow DOM as named parts, which can be selected by the ::part() CSS pseudo-element for styling.
• text-underline-position: The text-underline-position CSS property sets the position of underlines on text. For example, text-underline-position: under places the underline below the text, avoiding crossing descenders. The underline may be further adjusted by the text-underline-offset property.
