Check html css browser support

In this video series I will share with you tools that are very useful for web development. In this first video in this series we will look at a tool called CanIUse. In web development one of the common questions that we often get is, Is this HTML attribute supported by all browser or is this CSS selector supported by all browsers. One of the quick and fastest ways to check for browser compatibility is by using a website called CanIUse.com

For example let’s say I want to use the :hover selector to change the background colour of a button. But I want to make sure this is supported by most of the browsers. So we can quickly check can I use.

Similarly I want to use minlength attribute to enforce minimum number of characters typed into a textbox. So I plan on using minlength, but I am not sure if it is supported by all browser, so I again we can use, caniuse website to quickly check for browser support.

Hope you will find this tool useful. If you have come across any other useful tools for web development please let everyone know about them by leaving a comment on this video.
