SSCCE

You know what a "reduced test case" is, right? We've talked about it here. I imagine the concept is useful in many walks of life, but in the world of front-end development, you can think of it like:

Using Your Domain with a Netlify-Hosted Site
6.8.2019

Building UIs for web browsers
The spectrum of devices and platforms those web browsers run on
The people who use those web browsers and related assistive technology
The breadth of knowledge...

1.8.2019
I’m in love with SVG. Sure, the code can look dense and difficult at first, but you’ll see the beauty in the results when you get to know it. The bonus is that those results are in code, so it can be hooked up to a CMS. Your designers can rest easy knowing they don't have to reproduce an effect...

31.7.2019
Tím, že na své stránky umístí tlačítko like sociální sítě Facebook, umožňují firmy technicky přenos osobních údajů uživatelů a nesou tak za ně zodpovědnost. Takový je alespoň ve zkratce výklad pondělního rozhodnutí European Court of Justice, soudního dvora Evropské unie. ECJ tímto rozhodnutím...
A More Accessible Portals Demo
31.7.2019
The point of the <portal> element (behind a flag in Chrome Canary) is that you can preload another whole page (like <iframe>), but then have APIs to animate it to the current page. So "Single Page App"-like functionality (SPA), but natively. I think that's pretty cool. I'm a fan...
