@rviscomi I am happy to offer myself again as an author.
Thank you @christianliebel! I will tentatively add you as a peer reviewer to give a chance for anyone new to author if they're interested. But it was great working with you last year and I'd be happy to have you author again if no one else steps up. More context about the author selection rationale in #2165.
@christianliebel thanks for your interest in authoring this chapter! As the content team lead, you'll be responsible for the scope and direction of the chapter and keeping it on schedule. We automatically monitor the staffing and progress of each chapter based on the state of the initial comment so please keep that updated as you add new contributors and meet each milestone.
We've created a Google Doc for this chapter, which you're encouraged to use to collaborate with the content team on the initial outline, metrics, and ultimately the final draft.
Next steps for this chapter are:
@obto will be the section coordinator for this chapter, so they'll be periodically checking in with you directly to make sure the chapter is staying on schedule. Reach out to them here in this issue if you have any questions about the process.
More information about the content team lead and author roles and responsibilities are available for reference in the wiki if needed.
To anyone else interested in contributing to this chapter, please comment below to join the team!
@christianliebel thanks for your interest in authoring this chapter!
Thanks from my end as well :-)
- Due May 31: Complete Milestone 0: Form the content team by finding contributors to be a peer reviewer and data analyst (@tomayac might you be interested again?)
Sign me up. This time my objective is to see if we can cover some more "behind a user gesture" data.

Great to have you back on board @tomayac! ๐
Simulating user gestures to capture more realistic data sounds amazing. It's a big challenge that has been limiting us for years, so I'd be curious to hear your ideas. Any changes to the WPT infrastructure would probably need to be tested ahead of the big July crawl. cc @pmeenan FYI

To be quite honest I was aiming a little lower by proposing we look more at response bodies and see if we can come up with heuristics to see if something is, say, just an article about an API, or actual code that would be executed if a user gesture happens. So string search paired with some if
statements. Or, as they call it, Big Dataโข.
I know (rather: have anecdotal knowledge of) the search bot clicks buttons etc. to see if something changes on the page (for example to see if a select
box is used for navigational purposes), but I guess doing something like this in WPT would be harder. But I know very little about WPT, so maybe it's not completely out of reach?!
Simulating interactions is doable with WPT but it'd be a first for HTTP Archive and doing it at scale would be challenging. Static analysis to determine "what kind of page is this" also sounds challenging open to lots of subjectivity. If we go that route I'd be interested to see what heuristics would produce reliable signals.

That's what I expected, so most probably not a pragmatic way to go.

To-be-determined ๐งช I guessโฆ In the worst case we simply do an update of the 2020 queries.
@christianliebel can you edit the top comment to check off the 0th milestone? (helpful for us to monitor each chapter's progress at a glance in https://github.com/HTTPArchive/almanac.httparchive.org/issues/2179)
@christianliebel @tomayac excited to work with you again this year ๐
Couple things:
@obto Sure, we can follow up via email (in the doc) or Twitter group chat (@tomayac and @christianliebel, DMs are open) if you like.
@christianliebel The chapter outline is due by June 15th, which is just over a week from now and it doesn't look like anything has been written as of yet. How can we help?
@christianliebel The chapter outline is due by June 15th, which is just over a week from now and it doesn't look like anything has been written as of yet. How can we help?
@obto The outline depends on what data we can get. If we have usage data for APIs that require user action, I would focus on those. The fallback plan is to compare how API usage has changed from last year. Since it looks like we can manage to get data for the new APIs, I would prepare the outline for that scenario. However, we may have to change the plan again later.
@demianrenzulli @tunetheweb @webmaxru @Schweinepriester @thepassle @hemanth @tropicadri @andreban @jeffposnick @logicalphase Dear PWA content team, we could need some more reviewers for the Capabilities chapter. As it's thematically related to PWA, I wanted to ask if one of you could step up as an additional reviewer for our chapter. I really appreciate any help you can provide.
@christianliebel I am closing following fugu, would love to review the capabilities chapter.

Sounds good. Totally understand, and expect, the outline changing over time. Just want to make sure we have everything set up to collect your data before the crawler start July 1.
Collecting custom metrics for Project Fugu APIs is happening in https://github.com/HTTPArchive/legacy.httparchive.org/pull/208.
@christianliebel @hemanth: We can query data now ๐! Here's an example (SQL courtesy of @rviscomi):
CREATE TEMP FUNCTION getFuguAPIs(data STRING) RETURNS ARRAY<STRING> LANGUAGE js AS '''
const $ = JSON.parse(data);
return Object.keys($);
''';
SELECT
fuguAPI, url, payload
FROM
`httparchive.pages.2021_07_01_desktop`,
UNNEST(getFuguAPIs(JSON_QUERY(payload, '$."_fugu-apis"'))) AS fuguAPI
WHERE
JSON_QUERY(payload, '$."_fugu-apis"') != "[]"
and fuguAPI = "File System Access"
GROUP BY
fuguAPI, url , payload
limit 100
In the query, fuguAPI
can be any ofโฆ

@christianliebel @tomayac Looks like you're making steady progress on analyzing the data.
Just wanted to let you know we've got 3 chapters that have their analysis complete (PWA, Mobile Web, Accessibility) that you can refer to if you've ever got a question for how to grab the data you need.
Looking forward to seeing the chapter start to take form and if you've ever got any questions just ping me
PWA: Queries, Results (has all their visualizations done as well) Mobile Web: Queries, Results A11Y: Queries, Results
I have just added the queries as part of https://github.com/HTTPArchive/almanac.httparchive.org/pull/2322.
@tomayac @hemanth The chapter is now ready for review: https://github.com/christianliebel/web-almanac-2021-capabilities
Compared to the draft outline, I have omitted all APIs for which we have no data. I'm looking forward to your review comments!
@christianliebel great to see the completed draft! What's the best way to give review feedback? A couple of ideas:
Also, what's your plan for figures and data visualizations?
@rviscomi I created a PR to merge the markdown into the almanac repository here: https://github.com/HTTPArchive/almanac.httparchive.org/pull/2398. I do not yet have a plan for figures or data visualizations. We don't have data to compare from last year, and I don't know if we already have historical data for the new custom metrics. Maybe @tomayac can shed some light on this?
@hemanth Thanks for your comments, I'll have a look at them.
@hemanth I hopefully resolved all your comments in #2398.
@rviscomi @tomayac The only visualization I could think of is showing the usage (absolute/relative) of the different APIs on a logarithmic scale.
The frontmatter is now also finalized.
Yes @christianliebel thank you, it looks great! The only addon as we are looking into would be a few visualizations.
@christianliebel have you also considered big numbers?
@christianliebel @tomayacย @hemanth
Thank you all for your hard work getting this chapter over the finish line in time for the pre-release! Congratulations on finishing the chapter, and I'm excited to see us launch the rest of the chapters along side it on Wednesday ๐
When you get 5 minutes, I'd really appreciate if you could fill out our contributor survey to tell us (the project leads) about your experience. It's super helpful to hear what went well or what could be improved for next time. ๐
