Chrome 60: Paint Timing API, Control Font Loading with Font-Display and WebAssembly
409With Chrome 60, you can now measure time to first paint and time to first contentful paint with the Paint Timings API. You can control how fonts are rendered with the font-display CSS property. And WebAssembly has landed.
From the National Museum of Mathematics in Manhattan, Pete LePage has all the details and how you can use these new developer features in Chrome 60!
**Note:** I announced PaymentRequest was coming to Mac/Win/CrOs/Linux in Chrome 60, but the team found bugs we didn't like. So we decided to push the launch back to Chrome 61. Sorry for the miscommunication!
