This is bananas. Aesthetically bananas. This looks like a regex pattern, or some weird forum formatting from the 90’s.
URL syntax & terminology:
Within a URL, # starts a URL fragment (or “hash”).
Within a URL fragment, :~: starts a URL fragment directive.
#:~:text=hello%20world instructs the browser to highlight + scroll to the text “hello world”.

No, THIS is bananas:
(In all seriousness, I agree it looks a little weird, but… it’s hard to find syntax that is web-compatible. Anything that any existing web app already relies on in URL fragments is off limits :( - Još 3 druga odgovora

Considering it has a marker 'text=' in front of the actual text does that mean it can also target something else? And if yes what/how?
-
Not in the current proposal, but the idea is indeed that over time we can add new features by using the same “fragment directive” infrastructure.

how does it should behave in clientside rendered applications? will it be applied after js is interpreted?

“It is reserved for UA instructions, such as `text=`, and is stripped from the URL during loading so that author scripts can’t directly interact with it.” https://wicg.github.io/ScrollToTextFragment/#fragment-directive …pic.twitter.com/VFjgJoMDNp

It says “highlight” in the draft spec regarding what happens when the UA navigates to a page. Is this highlight intended to be undetectable by scripts? Is it intended to be stylable by CSS? Is it intended to be a text selection? (Spec also uses “highlight” to mean text selection)

In Chrome’s implementation, it’s the same kind of highlight you’d get when Ctrl+F’ing a page and searching for something.
