Has any of you managed to get HTML completion with Corfu? CSS files
seem to auto-complete fine for me but HTML files don't. I have the
"web mode" package installed and enabled even though I don't think
Corfu uses that for auto-completion like Company does. Beside Corfu I
have the cape package installed.

Corfu is just a completion UI.  It doesn’t provide the completions.
So if native M-Tab emacs completion works, so will corfu.  Look into
your mode’s completion-at-point-functions.

Thank you. I remember "company" having an option to set a backend that
accepted webmode (if I recall correctly). Anyway, you're right. I'll
take a look at what you suggested.

I think that's what I'm looking for.

>Cape provides the cape-company-to-capf adapter to reuse Company
backends in Corfu.

Just came across it in the documentation. I'll have to check it. I'm
wondering if I need to have company enabled to use those backends
because I was planning on getting rid of company.

Anyway I'm pretty satisfied with Corfu so far.

Yep company is both a UI and a collection of many backends using its
own custom API.  Corfu is much simpler, and relies on standard emacs
completion.  Maybe you are using company-web?  cape can indeed adapt
such company backends to pretend to be standard emacs completion
functions.  Worth a try anyway.

Did you get the adapter to work
