A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

It hasn't. WEI is only a proposal draft, for now.
~~It has allready been implemented in Chromium/Chrome (link). Websites only have to start using it.~~
Edit: see comment
That commit doesn't implement WEI; it adds some development tests for the hypothetical API, and actually adds a feature to prevent the API from even getting enabled for testing.
Websites can't start using it, because it isn't there.
Ahh, sorry my mistake. I remembered reading a headline somewhere about Google having already implemented it, but I didn't check. Thanks!
