📅 October 2026 release notes

New in Chrome

The following features are now available in Chrome:

  • JPEG XL: The JPEG XL image format is a raster graphics file format that supports animation, alpha transparency, and lossy as well as lossless compression.
  • symbols(): The symbols() CSS function defines counter styles as a value of properties such as list-style. It's an inline alternative to the @counter-style CSS at-rule.
  • text-decoration-skip-spaces: The text-decoration-skip-spaces CSS property sets whether text decoration lines (such as underlines and overlines) skip over whitespace characters. You can use this to prevent decorations from being drawn under spaces, which is sometimes more visually appealing.
  • Text import attributes: Module import … with { type: "text" } statements load text data as a string value.
