Description

Note that some of the comments on https://github.com/WebKit/standards-positions/issues/52 apply also here, however since long animation frames don't directly expose the concept of tags this can arguably present some mitigation.

@rniwa @achristensen07 thoughts on this?

smfr commented 5 months ago

Can we please qualify the "Long frames" and "Long tasks" APIs with "Performance Timing", since they are not new APIs in their own right; they are just new types of PerformanceEntry.

Fine with me, happy to change the title

@noamr is the intention to add this to an existing W3C spec? (If not happen already). Would it be better to do a review as a pull request there?

Answering for @noamr who’s on annual leave at the moment.

This started off as part of the long tasks spec—hence the links in the original request in this issue.

However, it was felt it was better to pull this into its own spec as requested in https://github.com/w3c/longtasks/issues/132. This work has been completed and it’s now available as it’s own spec (https://w3c.github.io/long-animation-frames/) and its own GitHub repo (https://github.com/w3c/long-animation-frames/).
