Adventures in CSS Semi-Transparency Land

9.3.2020
Recently, I was asked to make some tweaks to a landing page and, among the things I found in the code, there were two semitransparent overlays — both with the same RGB values for the background-color — on top of an image. Something like this: <img src='myImage.jpg'/> <div...

Geoff’s Redesign Posts

9.3.2020
I love it when people redesign "in the open" and write about it. I'd just like to shout out to our own Geoff who has been doing this for 3 months now. He started in late December last year. He's been sharing stuff like his dev tooling choices, considering performance, considering accessibility...

What to Use Instead of Number Inputs

6.3.2020
You might reach for <input type="number> when you're, you know, trying to collect a number in a form. But it's got all sorts of issues. For one, sometimes what you want kinda looks like a number, but isn't one (like how a credit card number has spaces), because it's really just a string...

Currying in CSS

6.3.2020
Funny timing on this I was just looking at the website for Utopia (which is a responsive type project which I hate to admit I don't fully understand) and I came across some CSS they show off that looked like this: :root { --fluid-max-negative: (1 / var(--fluid-max-ratio)...

The 3 Laws of Serverless

6.3.2020
Burke Holland thinks that to "build applications without thinking about servers" is a pretty good way to describe serverless, but... Nobody really thinks about servers when they are writing their code. I mean, I doubt any developer has ever thrown up their hands and said “Whoa, whoa, whoa. Wait...

The Slideout Footer

5.3.2020
A fascinating new site called The Markup just launched. Tagline: Big Tech Is Watching You. We’re Watching Big Tech. Great work from Upstatement. The content looks amazing, but of course, around here we're always interested in the design and tech as well. There is loads to adore, from the clean...

Automated Selenium Testing with Jest and LambdaTest

5.3.2020
You know what the best thing is about building and running automated browser tests is? It means that the site you're doing it on really matters. It means you're trying to take care of that site by making sure it doesn't break, and it's worth the time to put guards in place against that breakages....

Just Dropping Some Type Links

3.3.2020
I've had a bunch of tabs open that just so happen to all be related to typography, so I figured I'd give myself the mental release of closing them by blogging them. How's that for a blog post format for ya: whatever random tabs you've had open for far too long. Times New Roman is popular on...

Unfortunately, clip-path: path() is Still a No-Go

2.3.2020
I was extremely excited when I first heard that clip-path: path() was coming to Firefox. Just imagine being able to easily code a breathing box like the one below with just one HTML element and very little CSS without needing SVG or a huge list of points inside the polygon function! Chris...

A Follow-Up to PHP Templating

28.2.2020
Not long ago, I posted about PHP templating in just PHP (which is basically HEREDOC syntax). I'm literally using that technique for some super basic templating I needed to do on this very WordPress site. The main pushback was that this kind of thing can be an XSS vulnerability. In my case, it's...

How to Customize the WooCommerce Cart Page on a WordPress Site

28.2.2020
A standard e-commerce site has a few common pages. There are product pages, shop pages that list products, and let’s not forget pages for the user account, checkout flow and cart. WooCommerce makes it a trivial task to set these up on a WordPress site because it provides templates for them...

Why is CSS Frustrating?

28.2.2020
Here’s a great thread by Kevin Powell that's making the rounds. He believes so many folks see CSS as a frustrating and annoying language: That's just as unintuitive as JS starting to count at 0, but since you learned that and accept it, it's fine. The real issue isn't with CSS. If...

Responsive Grid Magazine Layout in Just 20 Lines of CSS

25.2.2020
I was recently working on a modern take of the blogroll. The idea was to offer readers a selection of latest posts from those blogs in a magazine-style layout, instead of just popping a list of our favorite blogs in the sidebar. The easy part was grabbing a list of posts with excerpts from...

A big checklist of things you could/should be doing to make your website the best it can be. 80% of which is a good idea for any website, not just a WordPress website. I'm linking to it because I like how plain language it is, and because it's a good example of how giving something away helps more...
