Explainer https://github.com/WICG/nav-speculation/blob/main/triggers.md#document-rules Specification https://wicg.github.io/nav-speculation/speculation-rules.html Summary Two enhancements to speculation rules-based speculative loading, under a combined experiment: An extension to speculation rules syntax that lets the browser obtain URLs for speculation from link elements in a page. They may include criteria which restrict which of these links can be used. Currently developers can only specify speculation rules using inline script tags. The proposed feature provides an alternative through the "Speculation-Rules" header. Its value must be a URL to a text resource with "application/speculationrules+json" MIME type. The resource's rules will be added to the document's rule set. Blink component Internals>Preload <https://bugs.chromium.org/p/chromium/issues/list?q=component:Internals%3EPreload> TAG review https://github.com/w3ctag/design-reviews/issues/721 TAG review status Complete at this time. TAG has reservations about whether the use cases of this feature justify its complexity, as compared to a simpler solution which would address some but not all of the use cases. Chromium Trial Name SpeculationRulesPrefetchFuture Link to origin trial feedback summary https://docs.google.com/document/d/13cJcoygFD64UcQH-P30dXCLbdD6SXpQwhpOUym64KXw/edit?usp=sharing Origin Trial documentation link https://github.com/WICG/nav-speculation/blob/main/chrome-2023q1-experiment-overview.md WebFeature UseCounter name SpeculationRulesDocumentRules Risks Interoperability and Compatibility Because authors cannot rely on document rules being evaluated (or preloading generally), applications which use them should function correctly in other browsers and should continue to function correctly were the feature to be deprecated. Of course, ideally other browsers do find it compelling to implement this feature. Gecko: No signal (https://github.com/mozilla/standards-positions/issues/620) WebKit: No signal (https://github.com/WebKit/standards-positions/issues/54) Web developers: Strongly positive on document rules from various sources; recent positive feedback from one partner on the response header. See origin trial feedback summary for more details. Activation Some developers might not be immediately aware of which URLs they can prefetch or prerender without side effects; this risk is reduced if they primarily use the feature for same-origin URL patterns they are familiar with. Security See https://wicg.github.io/nav-speculation/speculation-rules.html#security-considerations . WebView application risks None that are specifically anticipated. Reason this experiment is being extended Document rules have proven a lot of value. However, we have a few minor breaking changes we'd like to make over the next couple of milestones before shipping them unrestricted. The response header-based delivery of speculation rules has only recently started being used, as the partner which originally requested it shifted priorities. Now that experimentation with it has begun in earnest, we'd like to give it a few milestones of testing before sending an Intent to Ship. Ongoing technical constraints At this time the constraints are believed to be minimal. Debuggability Speculative loading which occurs is visible in the Network panel and the new Preloading panel. Console warnings are logged when several types of issues are encountered. Will this feature be supported on all six Blink platforms (Windows, Mac, Linux, Chrome OS, Android, and Android WebView)? Yes Is this feature fully tested by web-platform-tests <https://chromium.googlesource.com/chromium/src/+/main/docs/testing/web_platform_tests.md> ?
