*Summary*: text-autospace automatically creates small spacing between
characters of different writing systems (e.g. between Latin scripts and
Chinese or Japanese scripts), enhancing readability in multilingual content.

*Bug:* https://bugzilla.mozilla.org/show_bug.cgi?id=1869577 (The
implementation will be tracked in the dependency bugs.)

*Specification*: https://drafts.csswg.org/css-text-4/#propdef-text-autospace

*Standards Body*: W3C CSSWG

*Platform coverage:* All platforms.

*Preference*: layout.css.text-autospace.enabled

*DevTools bug*: N/A

a longhand of the text-spacing shorthand.)

*Other browsers: *

and Chrome
   Platform Status:
   https://chromestatus.com/feature/5202578236768256?gate=5117712266690560

*Interop & webcompat analysis:*
Both blink and wekbit support a subset of the values in the spec, i.e.
"normal" and "no-autospace". They shipped with the initial value
"no-autospace", while the spec's initial value is "normal". See the spec
issue on revisiting the initial value:
https://github.com/w3c/csswg-drafts/issues/12386
