How to Tell If Your Website Is Hurting Trust With Potential Customers
Your website is often the first interaction a potential customer has with your business. If it looks or behaves poorly, visitors may assume the same about your services. This article helps you spot common trust problems and gives practical steps to fix them so your site helps, not hurts, your reputation. How to spot trust […]
Why Website Speed Matters for Leads, Trust, and Search Visibility
When a potential customer lands on your website, every second counts. Page speed affects how long people stay, whether they contact you, and how search engines rank your pages. Improving load time is not just a technical exercise — it’s a practical business step that helps generate leads, build trust, and protect your online visibility. […]
Why Your Website Needs Ongoing Support After Launch
A website launch is an exciting milestone, but it is not the finish line. Ongoing website support helps protect your investment by keeping your site secure, updated, fast, and aligned with your business goals long after launch day.
Document Picture-in-Picture: Always-on-top UI, powered by real HTML
The Document Picture-in-Picture API lets web apps open an always-on-top window you can fill with real HTML—ideal for timers, controls, and conferencing UI.
Federated Credential Management (FedCM) API — a brief primer
Federated Credential Management (FedCM) is a browser-mediated sign-in API that enables “Sign in with…” flows without relying on third-party cookies. It standardizes the login experience, reduces cross-site tracking signals, and helps identity providers and relying parties deliver more reliable, privacy-preserving authentication.
The EyeDropper API: Pick Any Pixel Color on the Screen
The EyeDropper API lets web apps offer a browser-provided eyedropper mode so users can pick a color from any pixel on their screen—even outside the browser—using clear, user-driven controls.
Encrypted Media Extensions (EME): Decrypting Protected Video in the Browser
Encrypted Media Extensions (EME) is the web platform’s standard way to enable playback of encrypted, DRM-protected media in the browser. Rather than handling decryption directly, your application coordinates with the browser’s Content Decryption Module (CDM): it requests access to a media key system via Navigator.requestMediaKeySystemAccess(), attaches the resulting MediaKeys to a specific HTMLMediaElement with setMediaKeys(), and then manages the message exchange for licenses/keys through a MediaKeySession. When the media element encounters encrypted initialization data, it fires an encrypted event (represented by MediaEncryptedEvent), and the CDM can emit session messages (MediaKeyMessageEvent) that your app relays to whatever key infrastructure you use. EME is widely available across modern browsers and is typically restricted to secure contexts (HTTPS).
A Quick Tour of the Web Encoding API
Modern web apps live at the boundary between JavaScript strings and raw bytes. The Web Encoding API exists to make that boundary explicit and safe: it lets you encode a string into UTF‑8 bytes and decode bytes back into text. Importantly, these operations aren’t symmetrical—encoding targets UTF‑8, while decoding can interpret UTF‑8 and many legacy encodings. Alongside the synchronous TextEncoder and TextDecoder, the platform also provides stream-based variants for processing text incrementally as data arrives.
EditContext API: A New Foundation for Custom Web Editors
The experimental EditContext API gives developers a new foundation for building custom rich text editors by separating text input and selection from rendering. Instead of relying on contenteditable, you attach an EditContext to a focusable element and manage your own text model, selection state, and UI updates—while still receiving browser-grade events for typing, caret movement, and IME composition. This demo highlights the core event flow and why character bounds matter for accurate input UI, especially in custom-rendered editors.
Device Posture API: Detect Foldable Screen Posture on Web
The Device Posture API helps web apps adapt to foldable devices by detecting whether a screen is continuous or folded and reacting to posture changes.
