🎉 NVIDIA Elements is now open source. After years of work + API hardening, it's stable enough to share. A framework-agnostic design system for AI/ML robotics & autonomous vehicle UIs. Web Components that run in any stack, plus CLI/MCP/Skills/lint tooling. nvidia.github.io/elements/

One more to hit 100 ⭐'s... github.com/NVIDIA/eleme...

TypeScript 7.1 Beta is now available! Now with a preview API, content mapper support, new features, and some great optimizations. Give it a try and give us some feedback!

My first open source release: Tiny Tells! Six small status characters in one <tiny-tell> tag. They're animated like little cartoon characters, so a state change is a reaction, not an icon swap or a spinner. MIT licensed, 14 KB, no dependencies. tinytells.dev

Firefox 158 landed today! For web devs: 🎉 JPEG XL support, including full progressive rendering. 🎉 'navigate' on notifications, so they can go to a URL without firing events. 🎉 WebGPU's float32-blendable 🎉 WebGL's EXT_polygon_offset_clamp And more! developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/M...

What if there was a Web Components conference?? @stuffbreaker.bsky.social and I are teaming up to get a little more serious about the idea of getting one together. We want to gather data on if there is interest in the community forms.gle/ZGqtYGj7V6q8... Please fill out and share to anyone!

If anyone claims "X method/idea is dead" immediately treat anything they say with a healthy dose of skepticism.

v0.0.191 of Modern Web Guidance is out and it's a big one! *16* new guides covering: web components by @castastrophe.bsky.social Cross-Origin Storage by @tomayac.com security by @rowan.fyi UI and PWA by @jamessw.com and @sturobson.com Wasm by @sbc100.bsky.social github.com/GoogleChrome...

Oldie but goodie: Don't listen to users (watch them!). I can’t count the number of times I had to explain this to well-meaning engineers, who thought the way to good UX was asking users what they prefer. www.nngroup.com/articles/fir...

NVIDIA Elements #WebComponents

Very cool new viewport #WebComponent added to NVIDIA Elements. Leverages the Invoker Commands API. nvidia.github.io/elements/doc...

This is so sick! I love that commands are now part of the event model of the web! Thanks @keithamus.social!!

That invocation has hopped from JS to the DOM layer is earth shattering, makes the page model 10x more crucial & exciting. So awesome seeing this canvas embrace that! Thanks @keithamus.social for the hard work building invoker/commands!

Firefox's new design ships September 29. And did you know... The Firefox UI is built with Lit? A web browser built with web components! 🔥

I want Custom Attributes to exist - think Custom Elements (Web Components) but Attributes. I've been working on a proposal, specs, and now a polyfill: www.keithcirkel.co.uk/custom-attri... More coming soon!

What's new in NVIDIA Elements: August 2026 nvidia.github.io/elements/doc... #WebComponents

Native CSS modules are coming to WebKit!! github.com/WebKit/WebKi... WebKit is the last major browser engine to add support, so we'll get to baseline support soon. Servo supports them too 😎

🚀 I made a smol ~2kb syntax highlighter that uses the CSS `::highlight()` API. davatron5000.github.io/microlighter/

Upgraded the home lab! Dual DGX Sparks, one running models for personal/home assistant and second running coding related tasks.

Blink: Intent to Prototype: CSS mixins

I don't know how many ways to say this but - stop looking at model performance - it's almost all in the harness - decent harness can easily outclass top model evidence item #71625: developer.nvidia.com/blog/create-...

Hi! I'm working on a new HTML feature: filterable select There are two proposed API shapes so far: 1. Nesting <input> in <select> 2. Sibling <input> for listbox <select> w/id ref Option 1 is more ergonomic, but would break selects in older browsers Thoughts? (Both currently in Canary w/flag)

As a design system leader, you have to continuously prove the value you provide. But you also need the support of leaders who truly believe in your autonomy and intrinsic value of your system.

“The frontier of 2026, the stuff the sharpest people are most excited about, is render the HTML on the server, ship almost no JavaScript, and use the web platform instead of fighting it.” davidpoblador.com/deep-dives/t...

focusgroup has shipped in chromium 150! developer.chrome.com/blog/new-in-... Its been a long time coming, glad to have been able to get this out the door! Also note that there polyfill ready to go: www.npmjs.com/package/@mic...

When I say that modularity & composability are now crucial as large, coupled codebases consume more context, I see raised eyebrows. Meanwhile, they are constantly running out of tokens while I haven't hit a usage limit in months. If you think architecture no longer matters, joke’s on you.

I'm excited to announce WC Toolkit's new CEM Analyzer Plugin for Vite, Rollup, Rolldown, or Webpack builds. ✅ Auto-runs on build 🔁 Reruns on file changes 🔧 Zero config — auto-discovers your CEM config file #WebComponents #webdev #frontend #javascript wc-toolkit.com/cem-utilitie...

🚀 Last week my team released FASTElement v3. Tons to say but one small bit I want to highlight is: it's smaller! A before/after for a basic FASTElement (with common features like `attr`, `html`, `css`)... v2.10.5 → 63.6 kB (19.3 kB gzip) v3.0.0 → 45.5 kB (13.9 kB gzip) bundlejs.com?q=%40microso...

I'm excited to announce the new WC Toolkit #WebComponents type generator for @vuejs.org! This provides inline documentation, autocomplete, and API validation. wc-toolkit.com/integrations...

Oh snort that happened fast.

What's this, a new HTML proposal? Built-in localized time formatting in HTML! github.com/whatwg/html/...

I think AI is the best opening we've ever had to bring our engineering values to the mainstream, instead of the top single-digit-percent of teams it's always been. But nondeterminism will take more engineering discipline. Not less. charitydotwtf.substack.com/p/ai-demands...

A diagram with various nodes and connectors? Yes, doable with pure CSS. Another demo powered by modern features! css-tip.com/node-connect... Regardless of the node's position, the connectors will adjust their shape and position for optimal connection 👀 Drag the elements and see the magic 🪄

As @una.im just mentioned in her #cssday talk, the CSS WG recently resolved to insert a ⓘ after EVERY SINGLE INTEREST INVOKER on touchscreens. Here’s a mock of what this would look like for bsky. This is the issue to let the CSS WG know what you think: github.com/w3c/csswg-dr...

Customizable select is coming to Safari 27! 🥳 Want to try it out? Check out my demo collection: codepen.io/collection/B...
