Issue 282

A short issue this week as we prepare for the holiday season. However there are loads of videos from the Chrome Dev Summit to watch, the 2020 CSS Snapshot has been published by the CSSWG, and there are some tips to help with aligning things to the centre and using sticky positioning.

I know for many readers this won't be close to a normal holiday, I hope you manage to enjoy some time off if you  are on vacation over the next week.

With best wishes from Bristol in the UK.

And now for … Firefox 84 - Mozilla Hacks - the Web developer blog

Firefox 84 includes a useful tool if you are using layout methods such as grid that allow you to reorder the visual layout away from the order in the source. Tab order inspection gives you an overview of how a user might tab round the page so you can make sure it makes sense.
