Web Platform: Swift style and Resource Timing

Web Platform2026-11-05

WebKit and Chromium lists carried proposals on Swift formatting conventions and Resource Timing body size exposure. Both threads address engine maintenance details that affect contributors and performance API consumers.

WebKit discusses Swift coding style

WebKit developers on webkit-dev considered whether new Swift code should follow the existing C++ style or conventional Swift formatting via swift-format. The thread holds six messages from one participant. The outcome shapes consistency and review practice across WebKit's multi-language codebase.

Chromium Intent to Ship Resource Timing CORS rule

Chromium posted an Intent to Ship so Resource Timing exposes encoded and decoded body sizes plus transferSize for cross-origin resources only under CORS, replacing TAO. Six participants exchanged eighteen messages on blink-dev. The change tightens cross-origin metric access and matters to developers who depend on accurate resource timing data.
