Scoped CSS is Back
Several years ago, I made a plea to save scoped CSS. One of the top features on my CSS wishlist was on the chopping block, and despite a pretty big push from the community, it died.
Well, great news — it’s back. And it’s so much better than the previous version.
Even better, the W3C spec is mostly stable, and there’s a working prototype in Chrome now. We just need a little interest from the community to entice other browsers to build their implementations and kick this over the finish line.
