" summary

Roadmap lists concrete APIs, demos and costs: Temporal for dates without timezone and customizable select that accepts arbitrary HTML, the speculation API that prefetches or pre-renders links, and the CSS Anchor API that repositions tooltips relative to targets. Live demos show view transitions morphing 16 shuffled videos, clientside background removal and depth maps via Transformers JS with a ~6 MB model, and proposals like calc-size, starting-style, scope CSS and web primitives (fetch/Request/Response) that run the same on server and browser.
