Until Next Week

As we’re approaching the end of 2024, it’s nice to look back at all the new fantastic features we gotten this year. The Chrome DevRel team did a fantastic job highilghting the most important ones in their *CSS Wrapped 2024* overview, but I wonder what are *your* favorites.

Mine are `interpolate-size` property, `@starting-style` at-rule, and Cross-Document View Transitions. Which ones would you highlight? Let me know on Bluesky.
