What is/Who Makes "The Platform"

on YouTube ↗26m

" summary

Defines the Web Platform as a collection of open, royalty-free technologies and traces how features move from idea to browser: propose an explainer in the Web Platform Incubator Community Group, open issues and good first bug PRs on GitHub, Web Platform Tests for behavior, then an Intend to Migrate into a W3C Working Group and the formal spec path. Gives concrete examples: FileReader API used in production, custom elements’ hyphenated custom elements rule born from collision debates, and real interoperability pain caused by differing Intl implementations.
