There was discussions in bringing this work to the formal standardization track as part of the Device and Sensors Working Group a few months ago github.com/w3c/dap-charter/i…
The API enables connecting to and interacting with Bluetooth LE devices in Web browsers, providing low friction way to deploy apps for many BLE-based connected objects. webbluetoothcg.github.io/web…
As reported in this very good overview of Web Bluetooth, this API is right now in pre-standardization in the Web Bluetooth Community Group under the lead of @jyasskinw3.org/community/web-bluetoo…
Great recap of past, ongoing and emerging work on the Web media stack, including a link to Web Media Roadmap which has all the details you might need in that space w3c.github.io/web-roadmaps/m…

The main addition to the current CSS Grid Layout Level 1 is subgrids - @meyerweb described the concept excitedly a couple of years ago meyerweb.com/eric/thoughts/2…
There were initially part of the Level 1 spec, but had to be postponed to find the right approach for implementability.
CSS Grid Layout has taken the world of CSS design by fire over the past year, thanks in part to the great outreach around it (notably by @jensimmons and @rachelandrew ).
The @csswg has now published the first draft of the new level of CSS Grid w3.org/TR/2018/WD-css-grid-2…
Compared to #WebGL, it aims at being more “web-by”, lower level for greater performance, mappable to more platforms, and applicable both to graphic and computational use cases (e.g. maching learning). gpuweb.github.io/admin/cg-ch…
Right now, that accessibility tree is not exposed directly to developers (although it is directly influenced by the DOM); there is an ongoing exploration to exposing it in an Accessibility Object Model proposal wicg.github.io/aom/explainer… - developed on github github.com/wicg/aom
.@tink gave a nice introduction to the topic at one of our previous #w3cTPAC meetups, and you can watch and listen a similar talk of her from a couple of years ago youtube.com/watch?v=qi0tY60H…
The #Accessibility Tree is the model of information that assistive technologies (such as screen readers) use to expose the components of an interface (incl a Web page) to their users.
Now in Chrome 64: Select an element in the DOM Tree, and the new #Accessibility pane shows you that element's position in the accessibility tree, as well as its ARIA attributes and computed properties.
Thanks for the correction - there is indeed an old bug open for it but which seems to indicate it is not really being worked on any more bugs.webkit.org/show_bug.cgi…
