After being reminded subgrid exists & is useful in October, Josh comes swooping in with a typically high quality article about the possibilities it unlocks. Siblings being aware of each-other's size & layout is a very valuable thing in CSS, as is a layout being able to 'penetrate' containers like cards.

I did not know links had a download attribute, and I would indeed have been unsure whether to make a download 'button' an actual button or not.

The plaintext element is kinda crazy, but not as crazy as the fact devs used to optimise their sites by opting out of the 'expensive HTML parser'.

Speculative loading sounds great for performance, and terrible for performance if overused. Also might have narrower uses than you'd think, especially in React world.
