References — bi-11 Blink Scheduling

Primary sources first. In-tree Chromium docs beat any external source, including these modules.

Primary

• platform/scheduler/README.md
• MainThreadSchedulerImpl — task queue priorities and policy transitions

Specification side

• HTML Standard §8.1.7 — Event loops — the normative model, including "perform a microtask checkpoint" and "update the rendering"
• Prioritized Task Scheduling API — scheduler.postTask, scheduler.yield
• Long Animation Frames · Event Timing

Related modules

• fe-01 — Execution model & scheduling (sibling project) — the measured application-level counterpart. Microtask "chunking" rendered 0 frames where task-chunking rendered 49; scheduler.yield() matched MessageChannel on INP at 3.4× the wall clock.
• bi-10 — Compositor — BeginFrame drives the rendering steps
• bi-02 — Process model — which thread is which
