I would love to see support for variables in container size queries. This is mentioned in the spec, but no browser vendor seem to have it on the radar right now.

Similarly, query containers will evaluate var()-based queries relative to their own computed value of the custom property:

aside, main { container-type: inline-size; }
aside { --query: 300px; }
main { --query: 500px; }
@container (width > var(--query)) { h2 { font-size: 1.5em; } }

The var(--query) value used in the query condition is substituted with the computed value of the --query custom property on the relevant query container:
• For any h2 inside aside, the query condition will be true above 300px.
• For any h2 inside main, the query condition will be true above 500px.

The funny thing is that MDN won’t help you get a perfect score. Some of these properties are only mentioned in spec drafts and CSSWG discussions on GitHub. Some might never get support in any browser.

Final score 80/80
20/20 correct

Having MDN side-by-side is cheating by the way.

Did not expect to see Sweden’s national selection for Eurovision at #5 on Bluesky’s trending list. AFAIK that feature only covers English language posts which makes it gravitate towards global events or stuff going on in the anglosphere, especially the US. This almost feels like a bug. 👀
