Chrome 54: output with support for custom HTML tags

Chrome 54: output with support for custom HTML tags

Google released Chrome 54, the latest stable version of Google Chrome browser, which for this version has added support for a number of characteristics, but none more important than the custom Elements V1 specification that enables developers to create custom HTML tags.
New functionality included with Chrome for Android

Chrome had already supported the custom HTML tags for some time, but only an interim release and incomplete specification of custom items. Chrome 54 now supports custom load Elements V1, a final version of this specification WHATWG that all major browser vendors have agreed to support and implement. Currently, only Chrome 54 and Opera 41 Beta support the new custom Elements V1 specification, while most browsers still support V0. Google said they plan to support two versions of specification until most developers are passed V1. Custom Elements opens the door for HTML tags, so expect a HTML code to become unreadable in the near future.

Support Broadcast Channel

Another important feature is added to Chrome 54 BroadcastChannel, a mechanism by which multiple browser windows, tabs, iframes, web workers, and service workers can communicate. This is strictly for developers and allow them to create Web services that can synchronize data between multiple windows and tabs to the same original URL, much more easily and without the need for complicated async JavaScript code. Besides desktop publishers, Google devs have added new features for editing the Android browser, which can now reproduce a feature found in the official YouTube app. Chrome 54 comes with a function called Element.requestFullScreen (), that web developers can use to automatically move video content in full screen mode when the phone orientation changes, such as going from landscape to portrait. In addition, V54 also improved the Page Visibility API to allow playing of videos that the user scrolls the page. This behavior is already present in most desktop browsers, but was never included in the Android version of Chrome to save the smartphone resources.
