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: CodePen Embed Fallback 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: CodePen Embed Fallback 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....

Netlify Edge Handlers

13.10.2020
Some very cool news from Netlify: Edge Handlers are in Early Access (request it here). I think these couple of lines of code do a great job in explaining what an Edge Handler is: export function onRequest(event) { console.log(`Incoming request for ${event.request.url}`); ...

On the Web Share API

6.10.2020
I think the Web Share API is very cool (here’s our coverage). In a nutshell, it taps into the native sharing features on whatever platform you’re on, if that platform supports it. So essentially… I like this: Web Share API activated on iOS A heck of a lot more than these...

ztext.js

22.9.2020
Super cool project from Bennett Feely! It makes any web type into 3D lettering with a mouseover effect that moves the 3D objects in space. It’s reminiscent of Zdog, but for type. It works its magic by stacking a bunch of copies of the glyphs on top of each other that are offset by some...

Excluding Emojis From Transparent Text Clipping

2.9.2020
CSS-Tricks has this pretty cool way of styling hovered links. By default, the text is a fairly common blue. But hover of the links, and they’re filled with a linear gradient. 😍 Pretty neat, right? And the trick isn’t all that complicated. On hover… give the link a linear...

Doom Damage Flash on Scroll

26.8.2020
The video game Doom famously would flash the screen red when you were hit. Chris Johnson not only took that idea, but incorporated a bunch of the UI from Doom into this tounge-in-cheek JavaScript library called Doom Scroller. Get it? Like, doom scrolling, but like, Doom scrolling. It’s funny...
