Everything You Should Know About Web Development in 2022
summary
Browser CSS gets concrete: container queries land across Chromium and Safari with Firefox planning January 2023, and the new :has parent selector lets styles depend on children; view transitions (shared-element) is an active spec, and AVIF cuts image bytes to about ten percent of originals in tests. TypeScript adoption surges, end-to-end testing shifts toward Playwright, and fast tooling like esbuild (and Rust-based tools) dramatically reduces build times. Edge functions, island architectures and platform UI elements (dialog, selectmenu) are shipping or imminent.
