Thanks Adam, glad you enjoyed it. And we love the work you do as well.

I'm really curious why the Anchor Position demo I created in CodePen works there (viewing with Chrome latest w/o Experimental Web enabled), but does *not* work on my test website (again viewing with Chrome latest, even w/ Experimental Web enabled!). Does CodePen have some secret sauce when it comes to presentation of experimental CSS??

Also: How does this excellent demo video only have 600-ish views in 6 months??

Good question! As far as I know, CodePen doesn't do anything special that would impact this. It's hard to say without a link, but I've had this happen when the wrapping element in your CodePen example is different somehow from what you have on your site, which breaks the anchor discovery algorithm somehow.
