@jensimmons@front-end.social +1 to service workers, and also CSS grid. For both, I would find it specifically valuable to learn simpler ways to achieve common use cases. I think those are the APIs I most frequently find myself overcomplicating things with or not realizing a useful feature exists.

@iFixit My most recent repair win was fixing an unexpected mechanical failure on my bike while I was out by jerry rigging a temporary fix to get me to the nearest hardware store and then doing a better repair to get me home. I love that iFixit helps me save my laptops and other devices and get them back on their feet in the same way!
