If the web is to survive, we MUST keep innovating with new APIs and features, in ALL areas of software dev.
Device and OS integration, storage, file system, animations, codecs, styling, typography, networking, custom elements, extending built-ins, perf, media, ...
Too many things in this list.

Cool for many other things too, but especially cool for cross-document view transitions: finally you can tell front ⏩ from back ⏪! Honestly, trying to replace the default cross-fade with directional animations without the Navigation API is a bit like driving without turn signals.
This API is SOOOOOOO good … can't wait for it! 🤩
I'm using it on some demos over at view-transitions.chrome.dev.
Get the details about this API at developer.chrome.com/docs/web-pla...
