Exploring the CSS Properties and Values API
The CSS Properties and Values API is an exciting part of the CSS Houdini suite of APIs that enables developers to define and register custom CSS properties directly in JavaScript. This API introduces advanced capabilities like type checking, default values, and control over whether custom properties inherit their values.
