--- Comment #3 from Ole Strøm <olestr at pm.me> ---
It seems Chrome is making steady progress on their implementation.

After reading their issues on this, they're first focusing on landing their new grid implementation, and after that subgrid will be trivial to add.

That's nice. So I wondered what's the status on Safari, seeing that it would be the only blocker when Chrome gets it down (https://caniuse.com/css-subgrid).

Seems there's no mention of it on https://webkit.org/status/#?search=grid and no activity on this issue in over a year.

What's up? It would be awful if we have to wait to use subgrids until Safari supports it as well.


It would sadly not be the first time such a thing has happened.

While not exactly for this issue, it is a little related.

On my fairly regular projects the past year or two, where it would have been IE before, it's now Safari that's problematic and lagging behind.
I see more and more comments from developers feeling the same.

Causing us to have to compromise with workarounds or polyfills where possible.

Some examples:

https://caniuse.com/flexbox-gap
https://caniuse.com/input-datetime
https://caniuse.com/dialog
https://caniuse.com/css-scroll-behavior
https://caniuse.com/css-overscroll-behavior
https://caniuse.com/js-regexp-lookbehind

I do feel like the tide is turning. Almost all of the above are landing soon enough. I just hope we don't have to wait two years for this one as well.
