What's !important #1: Advent Calendars, CSS Wrapped, Web Platform Updates, and More | CSS-Tricks
"Welcome to the first ever What's !important, a roundup of the best CSS and web development news from the last two weeks. If you're pressed for time (who isn't?) or you just can't stand missing out on anything CSS-related, this is the place to recap: the best CSS/web dev articles from around the web, interesting announcements and quick-read links that we shared, the best of what Chrome, Firefox, and Safari have recently shipped, and more, probably. Let's dig in!"
"Manuel Matuzović has created this pretty hellish (all in good fun) HTMHell Advent Calendar 2025 made up of 24 HTML-focused articles - basically, there's one every day until Christmas Day. Obviously, we're already 16 fantastic articles in, so you're in for a real treat with 8 more articles to come. The highlight for me so far is the article on Invoker Commands, which as of this week are supported in all web browsers, so it's a double win!"
A biweekly roundup collects the best CSS and web development news from the prior two weeks, including top articles, announcements, and browser releases. An HTMHell Advent Calendar provides 24 HTML-focused entries through Christmas, with an Invoker Commands piece and cross-browser support for invoker commands. WebKit documents ::target-text, a selector for styling highlighted target text that search engines sometimes mark. New CSS techniques aim to reduce reliance on JavaScript by leveraging expanding CSS capabilities. Hyphenation control via hyphenate-limit-chars enables preferred minimum character limits to avoid awkward breaks, though Safari support remains pending.
