Totally hear you on the need to make the elements styleable. That's the next phase of work that's being undertaken, specifically starting with <select>. Take a look at the talk that's linked from the article for a more in-depth explanation of the future phases.
Specifically, there were audits flagged as "not applicable" and the alpha version of Lighthouse was instead flagging them as failures. That's why it looked like it was telling you to add audio or images—it was actually saying those audits are not applicable because your site doesn't use audio or images. I think that bug has been fixed in Lighthouse but feel free to reply to this comment if you're still seeing it.
We've also temporarily turned off the PWA audits—they were having some bugs of their own based on the infrastructure they were running on. Based on the feedback in this thread we'll look into making them configurable so folks can choose if they want to run them.
We'll also be opening up the repo shortly so folks can file bugs there directly.
Hey folks, I wanted to share a quick status update to let y'all know which issues we're seeing and working on. Apologies for the hiccups and thank you all for trying the beta!
Ah yeah that's something we want to fix. If you're signed in it keeps the report around but if you're signed-out it's stateless. It's definitely on our to-do list to fix.
Yep that's our bad. We accidentally started prefixing all of the urls with https we've fixed the bug but haven't shipped it yet cuz we're in code freeze
Heyo! One of the web.dev devs here. The new web.dev site is an experiment from our team to see if we can improve the interactivity of our docs. We link to developers.google.com/web in a number of places. Over time, if folks seem to enjoy the web.dev model, we may explore moving more of our docs over there. But for now it's just a fun experiment
