If you thought we were done with View Transitions, guess again! A feature Chrome is working on, is “Scoped View Transitions”, which allow you to scope a VT to a subtree of the DOM. This unlocks things like concurrent transitions and prevents layering issues. developer.chrome.com/blog/scoped-...

You can try out Scoped View Transitions in Chrome 140+ with experimental web platform features. We are actively looking for feedback on this one. Find all info (and a list of known issues) in developer.chrome.com/blog/scoped-....

Whats the expected behavior for scoped VTs in shadow roots?

By design they should "just work" with the view-transition-name matching working only within the scope. I haven't tested this myself though.

shhh we don't talk about shadow roots
