CSS @​scope has landed in Firefox 146, making it a new baseline feature. Here's how it works:

We have Custom Elements, but do we also need Custom Attributes?

This was discussed at TPAC. Is it something you'd like on the platform?

Last week I posted about a secret config in Firefox that made view transitions easier to debug.

@SailorPsy said we should make it less secret.

So we did.

New in Firefox nightly (146.0a1 2025-10-19): large lists of unused CSS custom properties are collapsed by default.

This not only reduces clutter, it also massively speeds up the rendering of the inspector panel in some cases.

There are… a lot of proposals, but you don't need to rank them all. Skim through the list, and find the few you really care about.

This is an experiment, so we're also interested in feedback on the app itself, and things we can improve for next year.

[Firefox for Web Developers @FirefoxWebDevs]

As an experiment, we (the Firefox team) wanted to try a new way to get feedback on which Interop proposals matter most.

So, here's a web app where you can rank the proposals you care about, giving us data we can use when reviewing which ones to champion.

@amanushenkov Even just navigate from rule to rule with the arrow keys would be nice so you don't have to tab through everything

A little while ago I added a little quality of life feature to @FirefoxDevTools . Now the network filter query persists between devtools instances! (you used to have to type it out every time)
