Hirrolot VS caniuse

> Inevitably, you will want to do something the framework did not forecast and will come up with convoluted ways to do it anyway.

I always find static site generators a kind of leaky abstraction. They eventually try to abstract nearly the whole functionality of the web stack, and the larger the SSG the more apparent it becomes. But, for obvious reasons, they just cannot abstract all the peculiarities of the web from you.

I write posts in Markdown, use Pandoc to convert `.md` to `.html` and a simple Go script in 200-300 LoC [1] for my https://hirrolot.github.io/.

Looking at the original file, it's an extended Markdown variant that allows raw HTML tags.

Safari is the only browser that doesn't support extending HTML element

You forgot to mention (Web)Workers. This is explicit creation, management, and communication with additional threads within JavaScript. What's more, they've been around in JavaScript longer than the V8 engine has even existed!

Do you happen to know where can I check out the cutoff version for each browser? https://caniuse.com/?search=wasm doesn't have it (or other things like WasmGC for that matter)

(https://caniuse.com/) A handy tool for checking the browser compatibility of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript features. Can I Use provides up-to-date support tables for various web technologies across different browsers.

In my experience it's the buggiest browser out of the big three, and is often missing basic features like e.g.:

https://caniuse.com/?search=opus

Supported in Firefox for *12 years* now, in Chrome for 10, still no support in Safari.

They only "support" Opus audio in their special snowflake '.caf' container, which is super buggy and the last time I checked no open source program could even generate Opus '.caf' files that could be played by Safari on all Apple platforms. I ended up writing a custom converter which takes a standard '.opus' file and remuxes it on-the-fly (I only store '.opus' files on my server) into Safari-compatible '.caf' files, taking special care to massage it so that it avoids all of their demuxer/decoder bugs. You shouldn't have to do this to have cross-browser high quality audio!

Well I'll be! In my mind I had this clear picture of Firefox implementing it.

It correct, it was only Chrome: https://caniuse.com/?search=html%20import
