The thing that makes me dubious of this claim is the number of years for which we've been reading variants of, "the upcoming (grid/flex/canvas/css3/html5/ecma spec/etc) will make things much better".
- jordanlev 10y agoI was talking specifically about layout (because the comment I was replying to mentioned layout specifically). I don't think any of the things you listed promised to improve layout, except flexbox and grid. And flexbox does improve one-dimensional layouts -- vastly so. I suppose the jury is still out on the grid spec, but it is in the process of being implemented by all the browsers and you can actually play around with it (behind feature flags).
