Future CSS: Predicting Trends and Emergency Functions

The author conducts an annual CSS study, asking the developers about CSS features and tools that they use or want to study. The purpose of the survey is to assist in anticipation of future CSS trends, and the data is also used by browser vendors to form their roadmap.

🚀 This year, LEA VEROU has joined as the main survey designer to help you choose which CSS features are included in the survey. But even though we have added many new and future functions (some of which, like CSS, are not supported yet), some functions were so distant, unusual and futuristic (or just fictional!) That we could not include them in the poll in conscience.

• 📌 CSS Toggles: This is a proposal from Tab Atkins and Miriam Suzanne who want to introduce real switches in CSS.
• 📌 CSS Switch Function: This is a proposal from Miriam Suzanne that will respond to different conditions in the code.
• 📌 Intrinsic Typography: This is a technique designed by Scott Kellum that allows the text to set your size based on the size of the element that contains it.
• 📌 Sibling Functions: This is an elegant solution that allows you to style a large number of elements based on their position in DOM.
• 📌 CSS PATTERNS: This is the idea of ​​Yuan Chuan, which is that you can use CSS to create samples.
• 📌 Native HTML/CSS Charts: This is a wild piece of speculation, but as the author thinks, built -in HTML/CSS diagrams would be incredible!
