Stream-Crossing Confusion


Should I use WordPress or React hooks? Should I use D3 or CSS? Should I use Markdown or JSON? Can I use flexbox in Gatsby? Can I use custom properties in Jekyll? Should I use HTML or the cloud? How do I add dark mode to my Vue site? These are tongue-in-cheek, but there is a point to be made here....

Dip Your Toes Into Hardware With WebMIDI


Did you know there is a well-supported browser API that allows you to interface with interesting and even custom-built hardware using a mature protocol that predates the web? Let me introduce you to MIDI and the WebMIDI API and show you how it presents a unique opportunity for front-end developers...

Making a Better Custom Select Element


We just covered The Current State of Styling Selects in 2019, but we didn't get nearly as far and fancy as Julie Grundy gets here. There is a decent chunk of JavaScript that powers it, so I'm still very much eyeballing browsers' recent interest in giving us more powerful selects in (presumably)...

Having a Little Fun With Custom Focus Styles


Every front-end developer has dealt or will deal with this scenario: your boss, client or designer thinks the outline applied by browsers on focused elements does not match the UI, and asks you to remove it. Or you might even be looking to remove it yourself. So you do a little research and find...

The Power (and Fun) of Scope with CSS Custom Properties


You’re probably already at least a little familiar with CSS variables. If not, here’s a two-second overview: they are really called custom properties, you set them in declaration blocks like --size: 1em and use them as values like font-size: var(--size);, they differ from preprocessor variables...

Making a Chart? Try Using Mobx State Tree to Power the Data


Who loves charts? Everyone, right? There are lots of ways to create them, including a number of libraries. There’s D3.js, Chart.js, amCharts, Highcharts, and Chartist, to name only a few of many, many options. But we don’t necessary need a chart library to create charts. Take Mobx-state-tree (MST)...

Patterns for Practical CSS Custom Properties Use


I've been playing around with CSS Custom Properties to discover their power since browser support is finally at a place where we can use them in our production code. I’ve been using them in a number different ways and I’d love for you to get as excited about them as I am. They are so useful...

Using Custom Properties to Wrangle Variations in Keyframe Animations


Have you ever wondered how to customize CSS animations keyframes without using any preprocessor feature, like mixins? I keep reaching for preprocessors for this reason, but it would so nice to drop yet one more dependency and go with vanilla CSS. Well, I found a way to account for variations within...

Logical Operations with CSS Variables


Very often, while using switch variables (a variable that's either 0 or 1, a concept that's explained in a greater detail in in this post), I wish I could perform logical operations on them. We don't have functions like not(var(--i)) or and(var(--i), var(--k)) in CSS, but we can emulate these...

A Configurator for Creating Custom WebGL Distortion Effects


A configurator for creating unique fullscreen image animations with WebGL distortion effects powered by Three.js. A Configurator for Creating Custom WebGL Distortion Effects was written by Daniel Velasquez and published on Codrops

Contextual Utility Classes for Color with Custom Properties


In CSS, we have the ability to access currentColor which is tremendously useful. Sadly, we do not have access to anything like currentBackgroundColor, and the color-mod() function is still a ways away. With that said, I am sure I am not alone when I say I'd like to style some links based on...

Using Your Domain with a Netlify-Hosted Site


Netlify has their own docs for Custom Domains, so if you're looking for horse's mouth technical docs on this stuff, that should be treated as the source of truth. But I'd like to take a crack at it from a slightly different angle, where we look at where you are and what you wanna do, and the point...

Bringing CSS Grid to WordPress Layouts


December 6th, 2018 was a special date for WordPress: it marked the release of version 5.0 of the software that, to this day, powers more than one-third of the web. In the past, people working on the platform pointed out that there has never been any special meaning to version numbers used...

Zoom, CORS, and the Web


It's sorta sad by funny that that big Zoom vulnerability thing was ultimately related to web technology and not really the app itself. There is this idea of custom protocols or "URL schemes." So, like gittower:// or dropbox:// or whatever. A native app can register them, then URLs that hit them...

Managing Multiple Backgrounds with Custom Properties


One cool thing about CSS custom properties is that they can be a part of a value. Let's say you're using multiple backgrounds to pull off a a design. Each background will have its own color, image, repeat, position, etc. It can be verbose! You have four images: body { background-position: ...

CSS Gradient Text


Web developers know the fight we’ve all had to improve fonts on the web. Whether it be load time, odd strategies for using custom fonts (Cufon, anyone?), or just finding the right font itself, beautifying text on the web has never come easy. That got me thinking about fonts and CSS gradients, since...
