It’s been **ten years** since Chrome was first released. A lot has changed | ||
since then, but our goal of building a solid foundation for modern web | ||
applications hasn’t! | ||
|
||
In Chrome 69, we've added support for: | ||
|
||
* [CSS Scroll Snap](#scroll-snap) allows you to create smooth, slick, | ||
scroll experiences. | ||
* [Display cutouts](#notch) let's you use the full area of the screen, | ||
including any space behind the display cutout, sometimes called a notch. | ||
* The [Web Locks API](#web-locks) allows you to asynchronously acquire a | ||
lock, hold it while work is performed, then release it. | ||
|
||
And there’s [plenty more](#more)! | ||
|
||
I’m Pete LePage. Let’s dive in and see what’s new for developers in Chrome 69! | ||

||
## CSS Scroll Snap {: #scroll-snap } | ||

</figcaption> | ||
</figure> | ||
|
||
[CSS Scroll Snap](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/CSS_Scroll_Snap_Points) | ||
allows you to create smooth, slick, scroll experiences, by declaring scroll | ||
snap positions that tell the browser where to stop after each scrolling | ||
operation. This is super helpful for image carousels, or paginated sections | ||
where you want the user to scroll to a specific point. | ||
|
||
<div class="clearfix"></div> | ||
|
||
For an image carousel, I’d add `scroll-snap-type: x mandatory;` to the | ||
scroll container, and `scroll-snap-align: center;` to each image. Then, as the | ||
user scrolls through the carousel, each image will be smoothly scrolled into | ||
the perfect position. | ||
|
||
``` | ||
#gallery { | ||
scroll-snap-type: x mandatory; | ||
overflow-x: scroll; | ||
display: flex; | ||
} | ||
#gallery img { | ||
scroll-snap-align: center; | ||
} | ||
``` | ||
|
||
CSS Scroll Snapping works well, even when the snap targets have different | ||
sizes or when they are larger than the scroller! Check out the post | ||
[Well-Controlled Scrolling with CSS Scroll Snap](/web/updates/2018/07/css-scroll-snap) | ||
for more details and samples you can try! | ||
|
||
|
||
<div class="clearfix"></div> | ||
|
||
## Display cutouts (aka notches) {: #notch } | ||
|
||
<figure class="attempt-right"> | ||
<a href="/web/updates/images/2018/09/notch-extra-margin.png"> | ||
<img src="/web/updates/images/2018/09/notch-extra-margin.png" | ||
alt="mobile phone with display cutout"> | ||
</a> | ||
<figcaption> | ||
Browsers add some extra margin on a mobile device with display cutout to | ||
prevent content from being covered by the cutout. | ||
</figcaption> | ||
</figure> | ||
|
||
|
||
There are an | ||
[increasing number of mobile devices](https://www.google.com/search?q=what+phones+have+a+notch) | ||
being released with a display cutout, sometimes called a notch. To deal with | ||
that, browsers add a little bit of extra margin to your page so the content | ||
isn’t obscured by the notch. | ||
|
||
**But what if you want to use that space?** | ||
|
||
With CSS environment variables and the | ||
[`viewport-fit`](https://www.w3.org/TR/css-round-display-1/#viewport-fit-descriptor) | ||
meta tag, now you can. For example, to tell the browser to expand into the | ||
display cutout area, set the `viewport-fit` property, in the `viewport` meta | ||
tag to `cover`. | ||
|
||
<div class="clearfix"></div> | ||
|
||
``` | ||
<meta name='viewport' content='initial-scale=1, viewport-fit=cover'> | ||
``` | ||
|
||
You can then use the `safe-area-inset-*` | ||
[CSS environment variables](https://drafts.csswg.org/css-env-1/) to layout | ||
your content. | ||
|
||
``` | ||
.content { | ||
padding: 16px; | ||
padding-left: env(safe-area-inset-left); | ||
padding-right: env(safe-area-inset-right); | ||
} | ||
``` | ||
|
||
<aside class="key-point"> | ||
<b>Remember:</b> It’s important to test this well; you're telling the | ||
browser it’s OK if some content gets hidden behind the display cutout. | ||
And don’t forget to test in both portrait and landscape modes. | ||
</aside> | ||
|
||
|
||
There’s a great post on the WebKit blog about | ||
[Designing Websites for iPhone X](https://webkit.org/blog/7929/designing-websites-for-iphone-x/), | ||
or check out the | ||
[explainer](https://docs.google.com/document/d/1lbZi18_5cMlLOphpFqTbuI4B0YGykQvvtRbw6j67UyE/preview) | ||
for more details. | ||
|

|
||
|
||
## Web Locks API {: #web-locks } | ||
|
||
The [Web Locks API](https://github.com/WICG/web-locks) allows you to | ||
asynchronously acquire a lock, hold it while work is performed, then release it. | ||
While the lock is held, no other script in the origin can acquire the same lock, | ||
helping to coordinate the usage of shared resources. | ||
|
||
For example, if a web app running in multiple tabs wants to ensure that only | ||
one tab is syncing to the network, the sync code would attempt to acquire a | ||
lock named `network_sync_lock`. | ||
|
||
``` | ||
navigator.locks.request('network_sync_lock', async lock => { | ||
// The lock has been acquired. | ||
await do_something(); | ||
await do_something_else(); | ||
// Now the lock will be released. | ||
}); | ||
``` | ||
|
||
The first tab to acquire the lock will sync the data to the network. If | ||
another tab tries to acquire the same lock, it’ll be queued. Once the lock has | ||
been released, the next queued request will be granted the lock, and execute. | ||
|
||
MDN has a great [Web Locks primer](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Web_Locks_API) | ||
and includes a more in-depth explanation and lots of examples. | ||
|
||
<div class="clearfix"></div> | ||
|
||
## And more! {: #more } | ||
|
||
These are just a few of the changes in Chrome 69 for developers, of course, | ||
there’s plenty more. | ||
|
||
<img src="/web/updates/images/2018/09/conic-gradient.jpg" | ||
alt="conical gradient" class="attempt-right" style="width: 125px;"> | ||
|
||
* From the CSS4 spec, you can now create color transitions around the | ||
circumference of a circle, using | ||
[conic gradients](https://www.w3.org/TR/css-images-4/#gradients). | ||
[Lea Verou](https://lea.verou.me/) has a | ||
[CSS `conic-gradient()` polyfill](https://leaverou.github.io/conic-gradient/) | ||
that you can use, and the page includes a whole bunch of really cool | ||
community submitted samples. | ||
* There’s a new | ||
[`toggleAttribute()`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Element/toggleAttribute) | ||
method on elements that toggles the existence of an attribute, similar to | ||
[`classList.toggle()`](https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/API/Element/classList). | ||
* JavaScript arrays are getting two new methods: | ||
[`flat()` and `flatMap()`](/web/updates/2018/03/smooshgate). They return a | ||
new array with all sub-array elements smooshed into it. | ||
* And [`OffscreenCanvas`](/web/updates/2018/08/offscreen-canvas) moves work | ||
off the main thread in to a worker, helping to eliminate performance bottlenecks. | ||

We put together a fun little blooper reel for you to enjoy! After watching | ||
it, I've learned a few things: | ||
|
||
* When I trip over my words, I make some weird noises. | ||
* I make faces and stick my tongue out. | ||
* I wiggle, a lot. | ||
