Betas of iOS 11.3 and macOS 10.13.4 are out. They come with Safari 11.1, which contains improvements for users and web developers alike. Here's a thread of some of the changes…
iOS 11.3 and macOS 10.13.4 include Service Workers — a powerful specification that allows background scripts to power offline web applications. iOS 11.3 also consults Web App Manifest when adding web apps to the home screen.
Web apps saved to the home screen and web pages in SFSafariViewController can now use the camera to capture images!
Safari 11.1 includes some great APIs: * Payment Request API * File and Directory Entries API (API for uploading directories) * HTMLImageElement.decode() * Beacon API
Safari 11.1 (including iOS 11.3) lets you replace animated gifs with silent videos (<img src="video.mp4">) for smaller downloads, better decoding performance, and a larger color palette. This post does a great job explaining why this is awesome:https://calendar.perfplanet.com/2017/animated-gif-without-the-gif/ …
Safari 11.1 has CSS font-display, which gives control over how a downloadable font renders before it's been fully downloaded. The "CSS Font Display" section of this blog post by @potch is a great intro to font-display:https://hacks.mozilla.org/2018/01/firefox-58-the-quantum-era-continues/ …
In Safari 11.1, when a user gives a credential or credit card-related field focus on an insecure page, a "Website Not Secure" warning is displayed.
Intelligent Tracking Prevention got smarter in Safari 11.1. And Web Inspector now has Canvas Debugging, an updated Network tab, and a new Styles sidebar design.
iOS 11.3 and Safari 11.1 include an improved Safari Reader content extraction engine. Too many small improvements to name — still my favorite way to read on the web.
OK, I’ll name one improvement to Reader. If you’re reading a blog post whose title links to another page, like on a link blog, Reader’s title will now link to that page, too.pic.twitter.com/XslGbcPCuy
I've saved my favorite iOS 11.3 improvement for last. In iOS 11.3, for the first time, Password AutoFill for Apps works in web views within apps. This will help further reduce the number of times you have to type or copy and paste passwords.
I’ve only called out a few of the improvements in Safari 11.1. You can read more here: https://developer.apple.com/library/content/releasenotes/General/WhatsNewInSafari/Articles/Safari_11_1.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40014305-CH14-SW1 …
Why is it locked to os version though?
Safari 11.1 will also be available with macOS 10.12.6 and 10.11.6. We deliver Safari for several platforms, but always for the latest versions of those platforms.
Service Workers will be available on Safari on El Capitan/Sierra? Your tweet made it sound like it was limited to 10.13
Service Works are currently available in the Safari 11.1 betas on El Capitan and Sierra. https://developer.apple.com/download/more/?=Safari …
I clearly meant “workers”. :P
Cool! thanks.
will that enable push notifications on mobile?
No, it will not.
We need push notifications.
