Tour of concrete CSS features with demos and browser notes: grid layout using minmax() and FR units to create responsive multi-column tracks, grid auto rows + grid-auto-flow: dense to tolerate variable content, and display:contents to promote indirect children into grid items (works in Firefox and Blink). Other working examples include shape-outside/clip-path, @supports feature queries, custom properties, calc(), position: sticky (landing in Chrome) and scroll snapping (works in Firefox but spec recently changed).
