SVGBOX
13.11.2020
I’ve been saying for years that a pretty good icon system is just dropping in icons with inline <svg> where you need them. This is simple to do, offers full design control, has (generally) good performance, and means you aren’t smurfing around with caching and browser support...

Run Gulp as You Open a VS Code Project
13.10.2020
When I open my local project for this very site, there is a 100% chance that I need to run this command before anything else: gulp. I set that up fresh less than a year ago so I’m on the latest-and-greatest stuff and have my workflow just how I like it. I did a few more tweaks a few months...
Some New Icon Sets
29.9.2020
I’ve bookmarked some icon sets lately, partly because I can never find a nice set when I need to. I figured I’d even go the extra mile here and blog them so I can definitely find them later. Aside from being nice, cohesive, and practical sets of icons, I find it interesting that...

How to Simplify SVG Code Using Basic Shapes
3.9.2020
There are different ways to work with icons, but the best solution always includes SVG, whether it’s implemented inline or linked up as an image file. That’s because they’re “drawn” in code, making them flexible, adaptable, and scalable in any context.
But when working with SVG, there’s always...
System UIcons
11.8.2020
This is a great collection of icons by Corey Ginnivan that’s both free and with no attribution required when you use them. The style is super simple. Each icon looks like older versions of the icons from macOS to me because they’re cute but not too cute.
Also? The icon picker UI is slick and looks...
SVG Title vs. HTML Title Attribute
30.7.2020
You know the title attribute? I can do this:
<div title="The Title"I'm a div with a `title`
</div
And now if I’m on a device with a mouse pointer and hover the cursor over that element, I get…
Which, uh, I guess is something. I sometimes use it for things like putting...
A Font-Like SVG Icon System for Vue
24.7.2020
Managing a custom collection of icons in a Vue app can be challenging at times. An icon font is easy to use, but for customization, you have to rely on third-party font generators, and merge conflicts can be painful to resolve since fonts are binary files.
Using SVG files instead can eliminate...
Bootstrap 5
7.7.2020
It’s always notable when the world biggest CSS framework goes up a major version (it’s in alpha now).
It has dropped jQuery and IE, started using some CSS custom properties, gone fully customized with form elements, started to embrace utility classes, and includes a massive icon...
Phuoc Nguyen’s One Page Wonders
2.5.2020
I keep running across these super useful one page sites, and they keep being by the same person! Like this one with over 100 vanilla JavaScript DOM manipulation recipes, this similar one full of one-liners, and this one with loads of layouts. For that last one, making 91 icons for all those design...
SVG, Favicons, and All the Fun Things We Can Do With Them
24.4.2020
Favicons are the little icons you see in your browser tab. They help you understand which site is which when you’re scanning through your browser’s bookmarks and open tabs. They’re a neat part of internet history that are capable of performing some cool tricks.
One very new trick is the ability...
Some Little Improvements to My VS Code Workflow (Workspaces, Icons, Tasks)
22.4.2020
I did a little thing the other day that I didn’t know was possible until then. I had a project folder open in VS Code like I always do, and I added another different root folder to the window. I always assumed when you had a project open, it was one top level root folder and that’s...
My Visual Studio Code Setup: Extensions and Themes
22.4.2020
Matthias Ott’s posted his VS Code setup. I find lists like this (I rounded up some recent updates of my own) irresistible, probably because, like y’all, I spend an awful lot of time in VS Code and wanna make sure I’m getting the most out of it.
Things from the list that stood...

Add Background Colors to SVGs Using the “rect” Element
20.2.2020
The advantages of using SVGs in web development are well known. SVGs are small in size, can be made quite accessible, are scalable while maintaining their quality, and can be animated. Still, there is a learning curve. Things, like the syntax of SVG, can be a little tricky and having to hand-alter...

Hamburger ☰ Heaven
22.1.2020
A pleasant little romp through iconography and culture from Sophia Lucero. The "hamburger" menu icon we're familiar with now is really a sign from Taoist cosmology.
Besides ☰, which represents heaven 天, we have ☱ for lake/marsh 澤, ☲ for fire 火, ☳ for thunder 雷, ☴ for wind 風, ☵ for water 水,...
css.gg

I'm not sure what to call these icons from Astrit Malsija. The title is "500+ CSS Icons, Customizable, Retina Ready & API" and the URL is "css.gg" but they aren't really named anything.
Anyway, their shtick is:
The 🌎's first icon library designed by code.
The idea is that they don't...
