I’ve joined the CSS Working Group as a W3C Invited Expert to help to
develop the next level of Cascading & Inheritance, in addition to other
CSS standards. I’m also currently active in the CSS4 and Design
Token CommunityGroups.
I was invited to join after the CSSWG approved work on my proposal for
extending the CSS Cascade & Inheritance module, so that authors can
define custom CSS origins. Jen Simmons presented the proposal at a
CSSWG “face-to-face” meeting, along with supporting slides. I’ll write
an article with details about the proposalsoon.
I think it’s a brilliant idea.
Almost want to stop talking about whether or not to do it,
and just start talkingsyntax.

In the meantime, it’s an honor to join the W3C, and help define the
future of a language I love. I have a lot to learn about the process,
but I’m excited to startcontributing!
Since we got a first look at a Container Queries prototype back in April 2021, the syntax has changed a few times. But now the spec is stable, browsers are getting ready to ship, and it’s time to make sure you’re using the same syntax they are!
