CSS is short for Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), and typically includes the full set of Selectors, CSS properties, values, and @-rules supported by browsers.
CSS is one of several web standards.
For documentation on CSS, how to develop for it, use various properties, see:
CSS
Priorities
The following CSS specs/proposals are a priority.
In Progress: Updating 2018 completions and reprioritizing for 2019
- List from DevRel kept here: http://mozdevs.github.io/devrel-dashboard/ in CSS and Layout sections
2018 Priorities
These are *in progress* 2018 Priorities for CSS features in Firefox.
- Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1424418
- Some public input: https://twitter.com/t/status/939273644043366400
- Subsequently discussed by the Platform Layout team at Yallhands in Austin, Texas (further adjustments are likely)
Close to shipping
These features have implementations that are already well in progress and thus it is a priority to finish them and ship.
Grid Level 2
Grid Level 2, in particular subgrid (use-cases, a11y implications)
- CSS Grid level 2 (W3C WD) specifically Bugzilla bugs for subgrid
- implementing, specification design may change accordingly
- see also for quick use-cases / tutorial:
- medium mobile potential impact, different grid layouts for different responsive use-cases
Values and Units 3
CSS Values and Units Module Level 3 (CR) metabug
- [ ] calc() function in particular. metabug
- re-prioritize Values and Units 3 once calc fixes have landed.
- [ ] attr function (at risk) — very useful in combination with CSS Shapes, in the context of a CMS
Media Queries
- Media Queries 4 (note: new features in 4), metabug, specifically:
- Media Queries 5, metabug, specifically:
- Re-evaluate MQ4/5 prioritization after interaction and prefers-reduced-motion features are implemented.
- full support of numerical comparators (<, <=, =>, >)
- expansion of negation syntax (and, or, not)
- 2017-08-02 CSSWG resolved to take to CR
- Also prefers-reduced-motion from Level 5 (#1365045)
- watch for mobile uptake, especially for mobile layout
2018 Medium Priorities
2018 medium priorities are "maybe" items that we're not sure we can get to in 2018, but would really like to (had a lot of interest during yallhands).
Containment
- CSS Containment Module Level 1 (FPWD 2017) 'contain' property, size/layout, style, paint. metabug
- potential impact for mobile layouts, mobile web apps
- Chrome shipped in 61
2018 Lower Priorities
Features or areas that are lower priority based on a number of factors.
Actively Implementing
Beyond the above priorities, we should continue to actively implement, fix bugs on the following:
Flexbox
Mozilla has a pretty solid complete Flexbox (W3C CR, just waiting on feature-interaction tests to go PR) implementation. We are working on some fixes to make it even better, e.g.
Grid
3D Transforms
- 3D Transform interop / spec changes, 3D transform bugs

2019 Priorities
Resize Observer
- Resize Observer (bugzilla, intent to implement coming)
Container Queries Prerequisites
- This is a high priority to evaluate how workable it is to polyfill/prototype once we have Resize Observer (see above) implemented and working
There's a lot of anecdotal demand for Container Queries / Element Queries. See replies here:
- https://twitter.com/t/status/939273644043366400
- https://twitter.com/t/status/955560233144905733 (strong interest, 100+ retweets!)
We should at least figure out what features / bug fixes we would need to address to even consider something like Container Queries (which we should also give input on)
- WICG cq-usecases effort (view open issues to help contribute)
- one proposal: https://tomhodgins.github.io/element-queries-spec/element-queries.html
Scroll Snap update
- Scroll Snap (CR), metabug
- Fix related bugs - update to latest version of the spec
- Chrome Intent to Ship (2018-05-10)
- Safari 11 / iOS11+ supports, Safari-only demo
- likely medium impact on mobile
Scroll Anchoring
Sizing
CSS Intrinsic & Extrinsic Sizing Module Level 3 (TR WD) metabug
- intrinsic size keywords: fix #567039 & #1055887, and unprefix (#1322780
- 'min-content', 'max-content' in particular (needs bugzilla links)
- re-evaluate priority at this point, e.g. 'fit-content' is lower priority
- medium mobile impact from height related properties
Shadow Parts
CSS Shadow Parts (TR WD)
2019 Medium Priorities
These are *in progress* 2019 Priorities for CSS features in Firefox.
- Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1424418
- Some public input: https://twitter.com/t/status/939273644043366400
- Subsequently discussed by the Layout team at Mozlando2018 (further adjustments are likely)
Filter Effects Level 2
- Filter Effects Module Level 2: backdrop-filter
- backdrop-filter bug (caniuse: only Safari supports)
- also on Trello Future Backlog
Inline Layout
- CSS Inline Layout Module Level 3 (TR WD), metabug
- focusing on CSS Initial-letter related features (initial-letter * metabug)
- one (implementation design) blocker issue: https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/743
- focusing on CSS Initial-letter related features (initial-letter * metabug)
Houdini
- CSS Houdini - see inside for Houdini implementation thoughts/plan
- working towards (longer-term)
- Properties & Values API
- prerequisites for Paint API (Worklets, parts of Typed OM)
- parity with: Chrome 65 supporting CSS Paint API by default
- re-evaluate priority of rest of Houdini at this point and re-sort accordingly
2019 Lower Priorities
Box Alignment
- CSS Box Alignment (WD), metabug
- all properties for blocks (e.g. 1105571)
- and some details for flexbox (see metabug 1105570 Depends on)
- spec CR depends on resolving open css-align-3 issues
- unlikely mobile impact (mobile layouts more likely to use flexbox with box alignment properties)
text-decoration-skip
- Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=812990
- parity with Chrome
Conic Gradients
- CSS Images Module Level 4: conic-gradient() (WG)
- Bugzilla: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1175958
- Supported in Chrome 69+, Opera 56+, Android, and in Safari Technology Preview
Shipped and evaluate follow up
Variable Fonts
Fonts Level 4 for Variable Fonts support in particular:
- Bugzilla for Variable Fonts: https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1302685
- unlikely mobile impact, do any mobile platforms ship a variable font at all?
- Fonts 4 (TR FPWD 2017), metabug
Reprioritize Fonts Level 4 accordingly once we have Variable Fonts.
Shapes
- CSS Shapes (TR CR 2014, another CR was expected in 2017) metabug
- would make mobile use-cases more compelling and closer to native apps
2019 Needs Reprioritizing
These are all items we made progress in 2018 (in some cases shipping features or large portions there of) and need to re-evaluate what’s left (if anything) for 2019
Multi-column
- CSS Multi-column Layout (TR WD), metabug
- unprefixing, column-span, a11y bug hack removal, column-break
- Low to no mobile impact, possible tablet impact
(Jen has a demo of bugs / test page at http://labs.jensimmons.com/examples/multicolumn-3-bug-demo.html)
----
Former 2018 Lower Priorities, need re-evaluation for 2019:
CSS Images 3
- CSS Images Module Level 3, (2012 CR), metabug
- cross-fade() -- particularly relevant when animating between images
- image-orientation:none
- possible mobile use-case: photos, just taken on device
- image-rendering: pixelated
- mobile use-case: displaying QR codes
- position syntax in radial-gradient()
- low to medium mobile impact
SVG properties in CSS
This bit from SVG2:
Motion Path
- Motion Path Module Level 1 (TR WD 2017), meta bug
- Blink: 2015-06-09 intent ship; Chrome 56+
- unlikely mobile impact, do any mobile sites even try to use this? or is it just cosmetic?
CSS Color Level 4
CSS Color Module Level 4 (ED), metabug
- Color improvements (wide gamut, color correction, note CSS color correction preffed off)
- low mobile impact (variable lighting anyway, users use of filters)
Implement correct color management of CSS colors (which is really earlier levels of CSS color).
Better Print Support
Start looking at what specs and features would significantly improve print support. Much of this is testing and bugfixing edgecases of existing features, some of it may require or benefit from new specs/features.
More specs / features in particular TBD.
