CSS containment

Read Original

This article introduces the CSS `contain` property, a primitive for isolating style, layout, and paint. It details the property's values (none, strict, layout, style, paint, size, content) and practical use cases like optimizing third-party widgets, off-screen content, and enabling container queries to improve rendering performance.
