A Community-Driven Site with Eleventy: Building the Site

20.8.2020
In the last article, we learned what goes into planning for a community-driven site. We saw just how many considerations are needed to start accepting user submissions, using what I learned from my experience building Style Stage as an example. Now that we’ve covered planning, let’s get to some...

A Community-Driven Site with Eleventy: Preparing for Contributions

19.8.2020
I’ve recently found myself reaching for Eleventy (aka 11ty) above all other tools when I want to develop a website. It’s hard to beat a static site generator that provides advanced templating opportunities while otherwise getting out of your way and allowing you to just create. One...

radEventListener: a Tale of Client-side Framework Performance

18.8.2020
React is popular, popular enough that it receives its fair share of criticism. Yet, this criticism of React isn’t completely unwarranted: React and ReactDOM total about 120 KiB of minified JavaScript, which definitely contributes to slow startup time. When client-side rendering in React is relied...

What I Learned by Fixing One Line of CSS in an Open Source Project

14.8.2020
I was browsing the Svelte docs on my iPhone and came across a blaring UI bug. The notch in the in the REPL knob was totally out of whack. I’m always looking to contribute to open source, and I thought this would be a quick and easy fix. Turns out, there was a lot more to it than just changing...

Expanding the Future (of Dev Tooling) with AI

5.8.2020
Codota wants their tools to (at least!) double developer productivity. My vision is that we can do that not only by getting more developers using these tools, but in expanding where and how these tools learn themselves. The better the tools can *learn from us* what we're doing, the better *we...

A Look at What’s New in Chrome DevTools in 2020

31.7.2020
I’m excited to share some of the newer features in Chrome DevTools with you. There’s a brief introduction below, and then we’ll cover many of the new DevTools features. We’ll also look at what’s happening in some other browsers. I keep up with this stuff, as I create Dev Tips, the largest...

Backdrop Filter effect with CSS

16.7.2020
I love these little posts where some tricky-looking design is solved by a single line of CSS using a little-known property. In this case, the design is a frosted glass effect and the CSS property is backdrop-filter. The approach? Easy peasy: .container { backdrop-filter: blur(10px); } The...

An Eleventy Starter with Tailwind CSS and Alpine.js

10.7.2020
When I decided to try to base my current personal website on Eleventy, I didn’t want to reinvent the wheel: I tested all the Eleventy starters built with Tailwind CSS that I could find in Starter Projects from the documentation. Many of the starters seemed to integrate Tailwind CSS in...

We need more inclusive web performance metrics

10.7.2020
Scott Jehl argues that performance metrics such as First Contentful Paint and Largest Contentful Paint don’t really capture the full picture of everyone’s experience with websites: These metrics are often touted as measures of usability or meaning, but they are not necessarily meaningful...

The Return of the 90s Web

26.6.2020
One of my forever-lessons here on CSS-Tricks is that having your own website and blogging on it is a good idea. It’s probably one of the best decisions I’ve ever made, as it’s been a direct source of fun, career development and, eventually, income. I always chuckle at little...

Building a hexagonal grid using CSS grid

18.6.2020
I think of grids as arrangements of rectangles with vertical and horizontal lines running through. And they are, but that doesn’t mean we can’t still do clever things in how we place things on those grids and what we do with the elements afterwards. In this demo by Jesse Breneman,...

Making My Netlify Build Run Sass

9.6.2020
Let’s say you wanted to build a site with Eleventy as the generator. Popular choice these days! Eleventy doesn’t have some particularly blessed way of preprocessing your CSS, if that’s something you want to do. There are a variety of ways to do it and perhaps that freedom is part...

The Many Bad (and Good!) Patterns for Close Buttons

27.5.2020
Manuel Matuzović details 10 bad HTML patterns for a close button. You know, stuff like this: <a class="close" onclick="close()"×</a Why is that bad? There is no href there, so it really isn’t a link (close buttons aren’t links). Not to mention the missing href makes this...

“The Modern Web”

22.5.2020
A couple of interesting articles making the rounds: Tom MacWrite: Second-guessing the modern web Rich Harris: In defense of the modern web I like Tom’s assertion that React (which he’s using as a stand-in for JavaScript frameworks in general) has an ideal usage: There is a sweet spot...
