Weekly Platform News: HTML Inspection in Search Console, Global Scope of Scripts, Babel env Adds defaults Query
Apr 19, 2025 am 11:18 AMThis week's web platform news covers several key updates: Google Search Console simplifies HTML inspection, clarifies the behavior of CSS custom properties, highlights the global scope of JavaScript variables, and announces Babel's defaults
query support. Plus, a convenient compilation of June 2019's news is available.
Enhanced HTML Inspection in Google Search Console
Google Search Console's URL Inspection tool now features improved controls for searching and copying crawled page HTML.
Important: The tool displays information about Google's indexed version of a specific page. Access Search Console at http://miracleart.cn/link/e53da0660d5d695870b49aee039f9148.

CSS Custom Property Computation: Once Per Element
CSS custom properties are computed only once per element. Redefining a custom property used within another custom property on a nested element won't affect the parent's computed value.
<code>html { --angle: 90deg; --gradient: linear-gradient(var(--angle), blue, red); } header { --angle: 270deg; /* ignored */ background-image: var(--gradient); /* inherited value */ }</code>

Understanding JavaScript Script Scope
Variables declared with let
, const
, or class
at the top level of a <script></script>
element remain accessible to subsequent scripts on the page. This is considered the global scope of scripts.

Babel's env
Preset Now Supports defaults
Query
Babel's @babel/preset-env
now accepts the defaults
query, targeting browserslist's default browsers (listed at browsersl.ist). Omitting target browsers causes Babel to apply all syntax transforms.
<code>{ "presets": [ [ "@babel/preset-env", { "targets": { "browsers": "defaults" } } ] ] }</code>

CSS blocks page rendering because browsers view inline and external CSS as key resources by default, especially with imported stylesheets, header large amounts of inline CSS, and unoptimized media query styles. 1. Extract critical CSS and embed it into HTML; 2. Delay loading non-critical CSS through JavaScript; 3. Use media attributes to optimize loading such as print styles; 4. Compress and merge CSS to reduce requests. It is recommended to use tools to extract key CSS, combine rel="preload" asynchronous loading, and use media delayed loading reasonably to avoid excessive splitting and complex script control.

Autoprefixer is a tool that automatically adds vendor prefixes to CSS attributes based on the target browser scope. 1. It solves the problem of manually maintaining prefixes with errors; 2. Work through the PostCSS plug-in form, parse CSS, analyze attributes that need to be prefixed, and generate code according to configuration; 3. The usage steps include installing plug-ins, setting browserslist, and enabling them in the build process; 4. Notes include not manually adding prefixes, keeping configuration updates, prefixes not all attributes, and it is recommended to use them with the preprocessor.

In CSS, selector and attribute names are case-sensitive, while values, named colors, URLs, and custom attributes are case-sensitive. 1. The selector and attribute names are case-insensitive, such as background-color and background-Color are the same. 2. The hexadecimal color in the value is case-sensitive, but the named color is case-sensitive, such as red and Red is invalid. 3. URLs are case sensitive and may cause file loading problems. 4. Custom properties (variables) are case sensitive, and you need to pay attention to the consistency of case when using them.
