Get Blisk release v.7.0.244.188 with new features: Native notifications on macOS, Paint timings API, Payment request API, JavaScript Modules, CSS and DevTools updates.
Starting in Blisk v.7 on macOS, Blisk will use the native notification system, improving the user experience and ensuring that the notifications feel more integrated in the platform. Notifications will now respect your do not disturb settings.
When the users navigate to a web page, they look for some visual feedback to reassure them that everything is working. With the new paint timings API, you can now measure that.
The Payment Request API is a W3C standard candidate that is meant to eliminate checkout forms. It vastly improves user workflow during the purchase process, providing a more consistent user experience and enabling web merchants to easily leverage different payment methods.
The Payment Request API is designed to be vendor-agnostic, meaning it does not require use of a particular payment system. It's not a new payment method, nor does it integrate directly with payment processors; rather, it is a conduit from the user's payment and shipping information to merchants, with the following goals:
Chrome 61 adds native support for JavaScript modules via the <script type="module">
element. That makes it possible for Chrome to fetch granular dependencies in parallel, taking advantage of caching, avoiding duplications across the page and ensuring that script executes in the correct order.
font-display
propertyWeb Fonts give you the ability to incorporate rich typography. But, if the user doesn’t already have the typeface, it needs to be downloaded, potentially making your site appear slow. Thankfully, most browsers will use a fallback if the font takes too long to download. The new font-display property, allows you to control how a downloadable font renders before it’s fully loaded. It’s supported in Chrome 60 and Opera, and is in development on Firefox.
scroll-behavior
propertyThe scroll-behavior property specifies the scrolling behavior for a scrolling box, when scrolling happens due to navigation or CSSOM scrolling APIs. Any other scrolls, e.g. those that are performed by the user, are not affected by this property. When this property is specified on the root element, it applies to the viewport instead.
