Jen Simmons elevated an intriguing proposition for the CSS Working Team today:
Allow’s Specify CSS 4
It’s turned up plenty of times just recently that the globe of individuals that make internet sites would substantially take advantage of the CSS Working Team formally specifying “CSS 4”, as well as later on “CSS 5”, and so on
This comes warm on the heels of the suggestion being drifted by Nicole Sullivan as well as PPK previously on, as well as consequently gone over better by Chris Coyier
The suggestion isn’t without its critics. Louis Lazaris blogged about why he believes this is a poor suggestion, as well as elevates some assets:
[Developers] obtain delighted regarding the devices I discussed above– as long as those devices are marketed in such a way that’s tasty to them … When you consider it, the advertising presses that have actually taken place around functions like Flexbox as well as Grid Design have actually been equally as beneficial as the general advertising that happened for CSS3 prior to Flexbox was also a point.
Yet on the whole, it feels like a great deal of us that operate in CSS really feel that the language (particularly the uptake of brand-new functions) would certainly take advantage of the sort of advertising press that a significant variation “bump” would certainly supply, although it would not be a purely technological meaning. The huge concern is, exactly how do we specify CSS4? What is consisted of, as well as what does not make it?
For my very own component, I do believe that product packaging a number of more recent requirements as “CSS4” has the prospective to boost recognition as well as uptake amongst programmers, a number of whom are uninformed of these in spite of extensive internet browser assistance. CSS is relocating at warp speed, as well as with numerous components at differing phases of assistances, it can be difficult to prioritise what to find out without some assistance. Whose work it is to supply this is an additional concern, however the conversation is much from over. I’m interested to see exactly how this conversation advances.
