Following the release of chrome 102 this week, Google has promoted its cross platform web browser chrome 103 to the beta channel. Chrome 103 beta introduces 103 early hints HTTP response code support to help network developers optimize the core network. The federated credentials management API is a new origin experiment and now supports local font access.

Chrome's local font access allows you to enumerate locally available fonts and the font's metadata, so that they can be used in web applications to customize the text stack.

Chrome 103 beta also adds support for the "define raw" compression format, allowing web developers to access the original deflate stream without any header / footer. This deflate raw support can be used for reading and writing compressed files by network applications.
