Last week I posted about a secret config in Firefox that made view transitions easier to debug.

Folks said we should make it less secret.

So we did.

We're currently working on devtools for view transitions in Firefox, but in the meantime, here's a little-known option that helps…

I'm actually quite impressed by Google's AI search, but hah it does this _a lot_.

commitStyles() has existed for years, but now in Firefox, it behaves like I always thought it should. Firefox is the first to make this change, but hopefully others will follow soon. developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/W...

The task scheduling API helps you take a large synchronous task, and chunk it up into smaller pieces, yielding to the event loop and rendering along the way. It’s now in Chrome & Firefox, but there’s a polyfill for Safari users. developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/W...

URLPattern lets you parse URLs using familiar route syntax. It’s now in Chrome & Firefox, but it’s likely to land in the next version of Safari. developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/W...

Excellent time looking after my sister's cats

Well, I had fun.

I'm missing something. If I set the transform origin to the cat's face, and applied a scale, wouldn't I get this animation rather than one that brings the cat's head into the centre?
