Looking at AWS Amplify
7.10.2020
AWS Amplify is a collection of tools from AWS to help you build applications.

39 Shirts – Leaving Mozilla
6.10.2020
In 2001 I had just graduated from a small town high school and headed off to a small town college. I found myself in the quaint computer lab where the substandard computers featured two browsers: Internet Explorer and Mozilla. It was this lab where I fell in love with Mozilla — a browser that...

6.10.2020
Lately I’ve been taking a look into designing with color (or “colour” as we spell it where I’m from in New Zealand). Looking at Adam Wathan and Steve Schroger’s advice on the subject, we find that we’re going to need more than just five nice looking hex codes from a color palette...
Curate Custom Content with mediastack

How to Make an Unobtrusive Scroll-to-Top Button
5.10.2020
A button to return to the top of the page allows the user to quickly return to the top of the page without making too much effort. This can be very useful when the page has a lot of content or which happens, for example, on one page websites, when infinite scrolling is used, or on mobile devices...
How to Detect When a Sticky Element Gets Pinned
5.10.2020
The need for position: sticky was around for years before it was implemented natively, and I can boast that I implemented it with JavaScript and scroll events for ages. Eventually we got position: sticky, and it works well from a visual perspective, but I wondered how can we determine when...
