I’m getting back to making videos

8.5.2020
It’s probably one part coronavirus, one part new-fancy-video setup, and one part “hey this is good for CodePen too,” but I’ve been doing more videos lately. It’s nice to be back in the swing of that for a minute. There’s something fun about coming back to an...

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

The Best Cocktail in Town

18.11.2019
I admit I've held in a lot of pent-up frustration about the direction web development has taken the past few years. There is the complexity. It requires a steep learning curve. It focuses more on more configuration than it does development. That's not exactly great news for folks like me...

Workflow Considerations for Using an Image Management Service

16.10.2019
There are all these sites out there that want to help you with your images. They do things like optimize your images and help you serve them performantly. That's a very good thing. By any metric, images are a major slice of the resources on websites, and we're notoriously bad at optimizing them...

How I Learned to Stop Worrying and Love Git Hooks

30.9.2019
The merits of Git as a version control system are difficult to contest, but while Git will do a superb job in keeping track of the commits you and your teammates have made to a repository, it will not, in itself, guarantee the quality of those commits. Git will not stop you from committing code...

Using a PostCSS function to automate your responsive workflow

Using Percy to add visual testing to a Jekyll site

27.6.2019
Visual testing is the automated process of reviewing software from a purely visual standpoint. Instead of testing the code underneath, visual testing is all about what end users actually see and interact with. Similar to functional testing, however, visual testing fits directly into your stack...

Checkout the Last Public Revision with Mercurial

19.6.2019
I’ve always preferred git over Mercurial (hg) because the feature branch workflow makes organizing code and working off of master very easy. You don’t get that with vanilla mercurial — instead, commits can just sort of apply on top of each other, without much organization....

React indeterminate

22.1.2019
I’ve fallen in love with React.js and JSX over the years; state-based rendering and a logical workflow have made me see the light of this modern framework. That doesn’t mean I don’t sometimes get a bit frustrated that the “simple” things seem harder than they should...

In Defense of Utility-First CSS

15.1.2019
A rather full-throated argument (or rather, response to arguments against) utility (atomic) CSS from Sarah Dayan. I wondered recently if redesigns were potentially a weakness of these types of systems (an awful lot of tearing down classes) which Sarah acknowledges and recommends more abstraction...
