Hello.

This post provides a quick way to retrieve and filter the list of Blink components from a JSON file hosted by Chromium. The provided JavaScript snippets demonstrate how to fetch and process the component list, filtering for entries that begin with "Bli". The next step is figuring out how to programmatically get a list of OWNERS.

The Pixel 4 XL's infrared camera, used for face detection, can be accessed through the standard getUserMedia API. A live demo showcasing this can be found at the provided link. Using the IR camera via getUserMedia blocks the phone's face unlock feature. This post invites readers to brainstorm potential applications of user-accessible infrared camera capabilities. An update mentions Francois Beafort's contribution to Blink, adding 'infrared' to the camera name if the device supports it, making camera identification more convenient.

I recently used Page Speed Insights for Mobile to improve my blog's page load time and one of the key recommendations was to reduce render-blocking CSS above the fold. This led me to explore the concept of critical CSS, which is the minimum CSS required to render the initial view of a page. I developed a proof-of-concept tool (bookmarklet and devtools snippet) that analyzes the DOM and extracts the critical CSS by iterating through visible elements and using window.getMatchedCSS(). This tool helps identify unnecessary CSS, integrate into build processes for optimization, and potentially generate page-specific CSS files for improved performance. It currently has limitations, working only in WebKit/Blink, ignoring media queries, and not handling pseudo-elements.
