I actually think that Portals couldn't be developed as a library. Otherwise Google would have done to use with AMP articles in the search carousel. Promoting an iframe to be the top level content in a smooth manner is not something you can just do with JavaScript, which is why they are adding this to the standard.
I love education and technology! If you ever want help with anything, please message me here on Dev, on Twitter (@PullJosh), or by email (hello@joshuapullen.com)
Yeah, exciting. But also concerning if it becomes a Chrome-only thing. What’s the latest on outlook for other browsers?
Yet another feature that should've been developed as an importable library and not native to a browser.

I see it now, after reading web.dev/hands-on-portals/ and hope this can come to other engines soon :D
Not good, as far as I can discern. Chrome's incredibly fast pace and willingness to change the standards definitely echos the IE days, which is scary.
Even though each feature on its own seems like mostly a good idea, if other browsers fall behind we could be in some trouble down the road.
