v0.0.191 of Modern Web Guidance is out and it's a big one! *16* new guides covering: web components by @castastrophe.bsky.social Cross-Origin Storage by @tomayac.com security by @rowan.fyi UI and PWA by @jamessw.com and @sturobson.com Wasm by @sbc100.bsky.social github.com/GoogleChrome...

accessible-web-components: Make custom elements accessible by default, setting roles and ARIA state via the ElementInternals ARIA mixin, managing focus with delegatesFocus, and keeping ARIA relationships within a single shadow root.
custom-elements: Define, register, and manage the lifecycle of autonomous custom elements, covering constructor rules, lifecycle callbacks, upgrade timing, attribute/property reflection, and naming conventions.
form-associated-custom-elements: Make a custom control participate natively in forms with formAssociated and ElementInternals, submitting its own value, integrating with constraint validation, and reacting to reset, disable, and state-restore.
prerendering-custom-elements: Server-render a custom element, then hydrate it in place without re-rendering or a flash of unstyled content.
shadow-dom: Encapsulate a component's DOM and styles with Shadow DOM, construct the tree efficiently with HTML templates, and project consumer content with slots.
styling-web-components: Style across the shadow boundary with :host selectors, inherited and custom properties for theming, ::slotted and ::part, and cascade layers and container queries inside components.
web-components: Orientation and cross-cutting principles for authoring and using Web Components, covering Custom Elements, Shadow DOM, templates and slots, Declarative Shadow DOM, styling across the shadow boundary, Form-Associated Custom Elements, and accessibility requirements. Use this guide when building reusable UI components, design systems, or server-rendered custom elements.
avoid-redundant-large-asset-downloads: Avoid re-downloading and re-storing large shared assets, such as AI models, Wasm modules, or fully-bundled JavaScript libraries, that a visitor's browser may already hold from an unrelated site.
load-shared-resources-declaratively: Serve popular, unmodified scripts, stylesheets, and JavaScript modules from a shared cross-origin cache using markup or import syntax alone, witho…

New Guides
migrate-web-app-origin: Transfer an installed web app to a new origin while preserving user configuration and OS-level shortcuts.
local-network-access: Access resources on a user's local network or loopback interface from a public web application.
trusted-types: Help prevent DOM-based XSS attacks by ensuring all untrusted content is sanitized before being inserted into the page.
responsive-table: Build a data table that presents tabular data with proper header semantics, and remains readable and navigable on small screens and with assistive technologies.
spatial-navigation: Implement accessible spatial navigation using arrow keys that works correctly in different layout modes (grid etc)
cpp-on-the-web: Compile C/C++ to WebAssembly using Emscripten

Updated the animated-select-picker guide to advise using standard value attributes on <option> elements to ensure standard form submission behavior.
Updated the branded-select-styling guide to emphasize retaining standard value attributes on <option> elements to preserve default form submission behaviors.
Updated the custom-select-picker-layouts guide with guidance on using :open::picker(select) selectors, customizing the ::checkmark pseudo-element, wrapping <selectedcontent> in a <button>, and managing keyboard navigation and accessibility constraints for grid layouts.
Updated the rich-media-picker guide to clarify that standard value attributes should be maintained on <option> elements to preserve form submission functionality.
Updated the out-of-order-html-streaming guide to document the full suite of static and streaming DOM insertion methods, detailing built-in sanitizer behaviors, WritableStream integration, and processing instruction marker practices.
Updated the sanitize-untrusted-html guide to detail node manipulation patterns using Document.parseHTML() to avoid mutation XSS, explain child preservation rules via replaceWithChildrenElements, and provide aligned DOMPurify fallback configurations.

A benchmark comparison table titled "Claude Sonnet 5.5" comparing four models: Sonnet 5.5, Sonnet 5, Opus 5.5, and GPT-6 Sol.
* Agentic coding (Terminal-Bench 4.0): Sonnet 5.5: 70.6%; Sonnet 5: 10.3%; Opus 5.5: 66.4%; GPT-6 Sol: N/A.
* Agentic coding (FrontierCode 1.1 Main): Sonnet 5.5: 46.2% (Max) / 52.1% (Xhigh); Sonnet 5: 42.4%; Opus 5.5: 54.4%; GPT-6 Sol: 49.3%.
* Agentic coding (CursorBench 4.0): Sonnet 5.5: 55.5%; Sonnet 5: 34.1%; Opus 5.5: 57.8%; GPT-6 Sol: N/A.
* Knowledge work (GDPval-AA v2.1): Sonnet 5.5: 1844; Sonnet 5: 1449; Opus 5.5: 1846; GPT-6 Sol: 1487.
* Knowledge work (AA-Briefcase v1.1): Sonnet 5.5: 1811; Sonnet 5: 1359; Opus 5.5: 1822; GPT-6 Sol: 1483.
* Multidisciplinary reasoning (Humanity's Last Exam with tools): Sonnet 5.5: 64.5%; Sonnet 5: 54.9%; Opus 5.5: 67.7%; GPT-6 Sol: N/A.
* Computer use (OSWorld 2.1 partial): Sonnet 5.5: 80.1%; Sonnet 5: 57.0%; Opus 5.5: 81.8%; GPT-6 Sol: N/A.
* Visual chart recognition (Chartography no tools): Sonnet 5.5: 61.6%; Sonnet 5: 15.6%; Opus 5.5: 64.4%; GPT-6 Sol: 53.6%.
Footnotes provide methodology notes regarding evaluation settings, Artificial Analysis pre-release testing details, and recent bug fixes affecting GPT-6 Sol benchmark scores.

A line graph titled "Agentic coding by effort level" on the CursorBench 4.0 benchmark, plotting Score (%) on the linear y-axis (20% to 60%) against Cost per task in USD on a logarithmic x-axis ($0.5 to $10+).
The chart compares four models:
* Sonnet 5.5 (blue line with labeled effort levels): Starts at "Low" (~$0.50, 36%), moving through "Med" ($0.70, 39%), "High" ($1.70, 48%), "Xhigh" ($3.80, 53%), and "Max" ($9.50, ~55.5%).
* Opus 5.5 (orange line): Tracks closely above Sonnet 5.5 at higher cost points, spanning from ~$1.20 per task (~44%) up to ~$12.50 per task (~58%).
* Sonnet 5 (grey line): Shows lower accuracy relative to cost, ranging from ~$0.90 per task (~25%) to ~$8.00 per task (~42%).
* GPT-5.6 Sol (light green line): Represents the lowest trajectory, ranging from ~$1.40 per task (~24%) to ~$7.00 per task (~34%).
Footnote: "CursorBench 4.0 does not report GPT-6 Sol performance publicly, so we report GPT-5.6 Sol here."
