The Place of UX
7.5.2019
Every time "UX" comes out of my mouth or is typed by my fingers, I think, "did I just use that term correctly?" It feels like such a big and loaded term these days, that perhaps the way I use it only contributes to the confusion. Ryan Singer frames that problem well:
Debates continue to rage about...
Microsoft Announces a New "Windows Terminal"
6.5.2019
I am a big fan of Windows (shame shame shame). I’m usually the only Surface in a sea of MacBooks. I love both platforms and work on both. My kitchen laptop is a 2015 MacBook and I’
Perceived Velocity through Version Numbers
30.4.2019
HTML5 and CSS3 were big. So big that they were buzzwords that actually meant something and were a massive success story in pushing web technology forward. JavaScript names their big releases now too: ES6, ES7, ES8... and it seems like it will keep going that way.
But HTML and CSS are done with that...

15.4.2019
Přitahuje vás budoucnost? Tak si udělejte pohodlí, právě do ní vyrážíme. Začneme pozvolna, pak trochu přitvrdíme a nakonec vám asi docela zatrne. Není divu. Prostředí online nákupů se a posledních pár let změnilo tak, že i ty nejdivočejší představy se mohou už zítra splnit. Jmenuji se Michal...
Inline SVG… Cached
12.4.2019
I wrote that using inline <svg> icons makes for the best icon system. I still think that's true. It's the easiest possible way to drop an icon onto a page. No network request, perfectly styleable.
But inlining code has some drawbacks, one of which is that it doesn't take advantage...

Stackbit
12.3.2019
This is not a sponsored post. I requested a beta access for this site called Stackbit a while back, got my invite the other day, and thought it was a darn fine idea that's relevant to us web nerds — particularly those of us who spin up a lot of JAMstack sites.

Downsides of Smooth Scrolling
11.3.2019
Smooth scrolling has gotten a lot easier. If you want it all the time on your page, and you are happy letting the browser deal with the duration for you, it's a single line of CSS:
html {
scroll-behavior: smooth;
}
I tried this on version 17 of this site, and it was the second most-hated thing...
Extending Google Analytics on CSS-Tricks with Custom Dimensions

The idea for this article sparked when Chris wrote this in Thank You (2018 Edition):
I almost wish our URLs had years in them because I still don't have a way to scope analytic data to only show me data from content published this year. I can see the most popular stuff from the year, but that's...

Here’s a wonderful post by Nicolas Chevobbe on what the Firefox DevTools team was up to last year. What strikes me is how many improvements they shipped — from big visual design improvements to tiny usability fixes that help us make sure our code works as we expect it to in the console....
