Moving a Self-Hosted WordPress Site to WordPress.com

26.2.2019
I have a habit of getting some hosting when I need a new WordPress site. That is, a self-installed, self-hosted WordPress.org site. That's served me well over the years. I like my control. But along with that control comes a certain level of extra responsibility that sometimes just isn't worth...

iconsvg.xyz

There is a lot to like about Gaddafi Rusli's ICONSVG. It provides inline <svg>, which is the most generically useful way to deliver them, and probably how they should be used anyway. Each icon is a tiny amount of SVG and I'd bet they were all hand-golfed. They are all stroke-based, so they...

Dealing with overflow and position: sticky;

25.2.2019
Any overflow value other than visible and no height is the enemy of child elements with position: sticky;. It's like that element is ready to stick when the parent scrolls, but it never does because the height is unconstrained. Adding a fixed height can solve the issue, but that's not always...

Using CSS Grid the right way

22.2.2019
Violet Peña has shared her recommendations for using CSS Grid. They basically boil down to these high-level points: Use names instead of numbers for setting up our grid columns. fr should be our flexible unit of choice. We don’t really need a grid system anymore. Although this is all great advice...

Writing Animations That Bring Your Site to Life

Web animation is one of the factors that can strongly enhance your website’s look and feel. Sadly, unlike mobile apps, there aren’t as many websites using animation to their benefit as you would think. We don’t want to count yours among those, so this article is for you and anyone else looking...

Blobs!

I was recently a guest editor for an issue of Bizarro Devs. It's a great newsletter! Go sign up! I put in a bunch of links around blobs. Like those weird squishy random shapes that are so "in" right now. Here are those links as well. I'm always a fan of publishing stuff I write ;) Blobs! Blobs...

Deliver your best work with the help of monday.com

(This is a sponsored post.) Here's the situation: You've bashed out a complicated design over two weeks of near full-time effort, gotten everything down to the exact spec of the design file, turn it in for stakeholder review and... you're way off scope. Turns out a few folks on the team put their...

CSS Variables + calc() + rgb() = Enforcing High Contrast Colors

21.2.2019
As you may know, the recent updates and additions to CSS are extremely powerful. From Flexbox to Grid, and — what we’re concerned about here — Custom Properties (aka CSS variables), all of which make robust and dynamic layouts and interfaces easier than ever while opening up many other...

Colorful Typographic Experiments

21.2.2019
There have been some interesting, boundary-pushing typography-related experiments lately. I was trying to think of a joke like "somethings in the descenders" but I just can't find something that will stand on its own leg without being easy to counter. Codrin Pavel created a fascinating multi-color...

Social Cards as a Service

I love the idea of programmatically generated images. That power is close at hand these days for us front-end developers, thanks to the concept of headless browsers. Take Puppeteer, the library for controlling headless Chrome. Generating images from URLs is their default use case: const puppeteer...

Don’t Get Clever with Login Forms

19.2.2019
Brad points out some UX problems with a variety of apps that are doing things a little outside of the norm when it comes to their login forms. There is already a bunch of things to get right with forms to begin with (e.g. use the right input types, label your inputs, don't have whack password...
