Detect System Theme Preference Change Using JavaScript
24.10.2022

Detect Dark Mode Preference with JavaScript
21.2.2022
Seemingly every website, dapp, and app offers a dark mode preference, and thank goodness. Dark mode is especially useful when I’m doing late night coding, or even worse, trading into altcoins. I’m presently working on implementing a dark theme on MetaMask and it got me to thinking:...

23.8.2021
You can’t just do @media (prefers-reduced-data: no-preference) alone because, as Kilian Valkhof says:
[…] that would be false if either there was no support (since the browser wouldn’t understand the media query) or if it was supported but the

How to Upload a File via SSH and Command Line

My preference for daily work is usually GUI applications, like Visual Studio Code for text editing and Cyberduck for remote file server management. I’m also a huge fan of automation, so I do try to learn the command line equivalents of UI functions. My latest desire was wanting to know how...

Over on the Polyplane blog (there’s no byline but presumably it’s Kilian Valkhof), there is a great article, Creating websites with prefers-reduced-data, about the prefers-reduced-data media query. No browser support yet, but eventually you can use it in CSS to make choices that reduce...

Working with JavaScript Media Queries
7.9.2020
What’s the first thing that comes to mind when you think of media queries? Maybe something in a CSS file that looks like this:
body {
background-color: plum;
}
@media (min-width: 768px) {

Two Browsers Walked Into a Scrollbar
18.9.2019
Surprise: scrollbars are complicated, especially cross-browser and cross-platform.
Sometimes they take up space and sometimes they don't. Sometimes that is affected by a setting and sometimes it isn't. Sometimes you can see them and sometimes you can't unless you're actually scrolling. Styling...
