Google Chrome 57.0

Une nouvelle version de Google Chrome vient tout juste de sortir. Cette version 57.0 introduit quelques nouveautés principalement destinées aux développeurs.

En effet, les développeurs de Chrome ont ajouté le support du CSS Grid Layout, pour rendre son site compatible sur tous les écrans, ainsi que l'API Media Session permettant de personnaliser les notifications sur mobile afin d'y ajouter des images et des contrôles.

Mais ce n'est pas tout, voici une courte liste de modifications apportées à Chrome 57.0 :

• There are some improvements to the Payment Request API.
• You can specify the color of the text input cursor with the caret-color property.
• Visual effects such as line color and style can be specified with new text-decoration properties.
• The Fetch API Response class now supports the .redirected attribute to help avoid untrustworthy responses and reduce the risk of open redirectors.
• All -webkit- prefixed IndexedDB global aliases have been removed, after their deprecation in M38.
• And one of my favorites — new padStart and padEnd formatting methods that simplify string padding when aligning console output or printing numbers with a fixed number of digits.
