Potential future implementation of RFS using CSS Container Queries? #475

Hi. First of all, thanks for RFS.

I'm curious about your thoughts on CSS Container Queries, particularly the container-relative length units (cqw, cqh, etc.). Given your expertise in responsive resizing, I'd be interested in your perspective on how these might relate to RFS in the future.

Specifically, I'm wondering:

  1. Could container-relative units potentially be used to implement RFS functionality natively, once browser support is sufficient?

  2. If so, do you foresee this becoming the preferred implementation method for RFS in the long term, given its native nature?

  3. How do you view the added flexibility of Container Queries, which can reference any container element's size rather than just the viewport? Could this address any edge cases where viewport-based scaling isn't ideal?

I understand that Container Queries are still in development and not widely supported yet. However, your role maintaining a key responsive resizing solution puts you in a unique position to evaluate how this emerging tech might impact the problem that RFS aims to solve.

Any insights you could share would be greatly appreciated. Thanks again for your time and for all your work!
