IMO, Houdini proposal is a way to insert JavaScript in CSS, which means if JavaScript fails for some reason (and probably fail), the CSS will fail too. CSS is a powerful programming language that should be enough by itself, we don't need to "complete" it with JavaScript. @essenmitsosse I understand your point of view, but keep in mind that CSS is a declarative programming language to build interfaces, is not imperative like JavaScript. Declarative languages are always opinionated and domain specific (the oposite of a general-purpose language). I don't think a complex language that force you to create a two-columns layout from scratch at low level (having to implement the algorithm by yourself) is a better option. Surely it will be more powerful but also more complex (in the same way C is more powerful than PHP but nobody will want to create a website in C). -- GitHub Notification of comment by oscarotero Please view or discuss this issue at https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/10233#issuecomment-2399894264 using your GitHub account -- Sent via github-notify-ml as configured in https://github.com/w3c/github-notify-ml-config
