Google, Apple, Mozilla and Microsoft working together for better web platform

Google, Apple, Mozilla, and Microsoft are teaming up for better interoperability between Chrome, Firefox, Edge, and Safari, according to Web.dev.

Interop 2022, a new interoperability benchmark aimed at reducing disruptions caused by the differences and inconsistencies between different browsers, is part of this joint effort.

Deriving some of the focus points from Compat 2021, a similar effort by Google announced in late 2021, Interop 2022 has 15 areas of focus including scrolling, cascade layers, and colour spaces. Aimed at building a more reliable platform for developers, it can make web platforms more usable.

In a world where Google primarily leads the desktop browser market, Interop 2022 might bring surprising changes in the web world.
