Excellent line of questions, give it a try guys.
I made a quiz about the JS Date parser is. It's very easy and you will score very high.

jsdate.wtf
new Date("wtf")
How well do you know JavaScript's Date class?

Live from the CSS WG F2F:

…not only is corner-shape coming

…not only do we get squircles in CSS

…it will even be possible to *animate* between corner shapes because under the hood they'll all be expressed via the same function! 🤩

Props to @nomster.bsky.social for leading this work!

💡 CSS Tip!

Do you want to know the scrollbar width? It's possible using only CSS and a few lines of code! You can get the pixel value within a CSS variable and use it everywhere.

As a bonus, you can also have an integer value and show it!

A demo here: css-tip.com/width-scroll...
