Checkerboard Reveal
25.1.2021
Back when I was 10, I remember my cousin visiting our house. He was (and still is) a cool kid, the kind who’d bring his own self-programmed chess game on a floppy disk. And his version of chess was …

Servers: Cool Once Again
22.1.2021
There were jokes coming back from the holiday break that JavaScript decided to go all server-side. I think it was rooted in:
The Basecamp gang releasing Hotwire, which looks like marketing panache around a combination of technologies. “HTML over

Netlify Edge Handlers

Netlify Edge Handlers are in Early Access (you can request it), but they are super cool and I think they are worth wrapping your brain around now. I think they change the nature of what Jamstack is and can be.…

Abandoned MF DOOM Game Sounded Cool
14.1.2021
News of MF DOOM’s death a couple of weeks ago led to an outpouring of tributes from artists around the world, from movie-makers to his peers and fans in the rap game, but one that caught my eye in particular was this project by Chafomon, an abandoned fan project for the Game Boy called MF Doom:...
clipPath vs. mask
27.12.2020
These things are so similar, I find it hard to keep them straight. This is a nice little explanation from viewBox (what a cool name and URL, I hope they keep it up).
The big thing is that clipPath (the element in SVG, as well as clip-path in CSS) is vector and when it is applied, whatever you...
Hell Yes! CSS!
15.12.2020
Speaking of cool CSS stuff you can buy, Julia Evans’ zine Hell Yes! CSS! is hot off the presses. A “zine” being 28 pages of “short, informative, and fun comics which will quickly teach you something useful.” Some parts of it are like cheat sheets. Some parts of it...
Representation Matters
15.12.2020
This year I had the pleasure of re-launching The Accessibility Project. I spend a lot of time researching and writing about accessibility and inclusive design, so this felt like the cumulation of a lot of that effort. The site now uses all sorts of cool web features like CSS Grid, @supports,...
Let's Appreciate These Cool Video Game Cars Inspired By Real Ones
1.12.2020
Most modern racing games consist of facsimiles real cars used under licensing agreements from the automakers. The reason is easy to grasp: If you’re playing a racing game in the first place, you probably have at least a passing interest in automobiles, and a car you actually recognize or like could...
console.log({ myVariable });
19.11.2020
I think this might be my most popular tweet of all time, but I’m not sure how to verify that these days. I’ll restate this neat little trick here because blogging is cool and fun.
I used to do this a lot while debugging JavaScript:
console.log("myVariable: ", myVariable);
But now I...
grid-auto-flow : CSS Grid :: flex-direction : Flexbox
19.11.2020
When setting a parent element to display: flex, its child elements align left-to-right like this:

Now, one of the neat things we can do with flexbox is change the direction so that child elements are stacked vertically on top of each other in a column. We can do that with...
CSS Background Patterns
17.11.2020
Nice little tool from Jim Raptis: CSS Background Patterns. A bunch of easy-to-customize and copy-and-paste backgrounds that use hard stop CSS gradients to make classy patterns. Not quite as flexible as SVG backgrounds, but just as lightweight.
Like this:

Speaking of cool...
Libraries for SVG Drawing Animations
11.11.2020
In 2013, Jake Archibald introduced this cool trick of animating an SVG path to look like it’s drawing itself. It’s 2020 now, and the trick is still popular. I’ve seen it on a lot of websites I’ve visited recently. I, too, feature an animated SVG loader on my website using one of the libraries I’ll...

This page is a truly naked, brutalist html quine.
4.11.2020
Here’s a fun page coming from secretGeek.net. You don’t normally think “fun” with brutalist minimalism but the CSS trickery that makes it work on this page is certainly that.
The HTML is literally displayed on the page as tags. So, in a sense, the HTML is both the page...

CSS in 3D: Learning to Think in Cubes Instead of Boxes
23.10.2020
My path to learning CSS was a little unorthodox. I didn’t start as a front-end developer. I was a Java developer. In fact, my earliest recollections of CSS were picking colors for things in Visual Studio.
It wasn’t until later that I got to tackle and find my love for the front end....
