Rethinking the JavaScript Reflex
Time: Thursday 14th May 10:30-11:00
Room: Waterfront
Track: Web Tools & Complementary Technologies
CSS is no longer just about layout and styling, it’s becoming a powerful tool for interaction and behaviour. Container queries, :has(), view transitions, scroll-driven animations, anchor positioning and more are changing what’s possible without touching JavaScript.
This talk explores the newest CSS capabilities and demonstrates how they can replace many JavaScript-driven UI patterns. Through practical examples, you’ll see how modern CSS can simplify your frontend architecture and change how you approach building interfaces.
