vminw

Vminw is not a recognized or standardized CSS length unit. It does not appear in the official CSS specifications, such as the CSS Values and Units module, and modern browsers do not implement a unit called vminw. In practice, references to vminw are rare and typically come from informal discussions, project-specific conventions, or potential typographical errors.

Some conversations about vminw treat it as an informal shorthand related to the vmin unit, which is defined as 1% of the viewport’s smaller dimension (either width or height). In such contexts, vminw may be used to imply a sizing approach anchored to the viewport minimum, or simply to indicate a naming convention within a particular codebase. Because it is not standardized, the meaning of vminw can vary between authors and projects, and it is not interoperable across browsers.

Because vminw has no formal specification, there is no guaranteed browser support or behavior. When encountered in code, it is advisable to verify the intent with the author or repository documentation. For robust, portable styling, developers should rely on standard units such as vmin, vw, vh, or calculations using calc(), min-width, and max-width.

In summary, vminw is not an official CSS unit. Developers should treat it as nonstandard or a project-specific term, and prefer standard CSS units and techniques for responsive design. See also CSS length units, vmin, viewport units, and responsive design concepts.
