Using Flexbox and text ellipsis together
22.7.2020
You can truncate a single line of text with an ellipsis (…) fairly easily with text-overflow and a few friends. But, as you might expect, that truncation happens at the end of the line of text. What if you want to truncate content in the middle?
Leonardo Faria details good use cases for this...

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);
}

When a Line Doesn’t Break
2.7.2020
We expect a line to break when the text on that line reaches the parent box boundaries. We see this every time we create a paragraph, just like this one. When the parent box doesn’t have enough room for the next word in a line, it breaks it and moves down to the next line and repeats that...
Responsive Styling Using Attribute Selectors
30.6.2020
One of the challenges we face when implementing class-based atomic styling is that it often depends on a specific breakpoint for context.

Line-Animated Hamburger Menu
26.6.2020
This kind of SVG + CSS animation trickery is catnip to me. Mikael Ainalem shares how to draw a hamburger icon (the “three lines” thing you’re well familiar with), but then animate it in a way that is surprising and fun by controlling the SVG properties in CSS.

The Mad Magazine Fold-In Effect in CSS
25.6.2020
This was always my favorite thing in Mad magazine. One page (the inside of the back cover, I think) was covered in a zany illustration. You folded that page in thirds, covering up the middle-third of that image, and a new image would form because the illustration was designed to perfectly line...
Hide Scrollbars During an Animation
24.6.2020
CSS still can’t animate to auto dimensions.
.dropdown {
transition: 0.2s;
height: 0;
}
.dropdown.open {
/* the height will change, but it won't animate. */
height: auto;
}
There is JavaScript trickery you can try. Brandon Smith outlined several techniques here a little while back....
WebP Image Support Coming to iOS 14
24.6.2020
Apple announced a ton of new updates at yesterday’s WWDC20 keynote address, from new hardware to updated applications. There’s lots to gawk at and enough device-envy to go around.
But there’s one little line in the Safari 14 Beta release notes that caught my eye:

Uhm hi when is that meeting again?
into something fun like…

On Adding IDs to Headers
11.6.2020
Here’s a two-second review. If an element has an ID, you can link to it with natural browser behavior. It’s great if headings have them, because it’s often useful to link directly to a specific section of content.
<h3 id="step-2"Step 2</a
Should I be so inclined, I could...
How to Reverse CSS Custom Counters
11.6.2020
I needed a numbered list of blog posts to be listed with the last/high first and going down from there. Like this:
5. Post Title
4. Post Title
3. Post Title
2. Post Title
1. Post Title
But the above is just text. I wanted to do this with a semantic <ol> element.
The easy way

How to Get All Custom Properties on a Page in JavaScript
8.6.2020
We can use JavaScript to get the value of a CSS custom property. Robin wrote up a detailed explanation about this in Get a CSS Custom Property Value with JavaScript. To review, let’s say we’ve declared a single custom property on the HTML element:
html {
--color-accent: #00eb9b;
}

Adding CSS to a Page via HTTP Headers
4.6.2020
Only Firefox supports it, but if you return a request with a header like this:
Header add Link "<style.css;rel=stylesheet;media=all"
…that will link to that stylesheet without you having to do it in the HTML. Louis Lazaris digs into it:
[…] the only thing I can think of that could...
Global CSS options with custom properties
30.5.2020
With a preprocessor, like Sass, building a logical “do this or don’t” setting is fairly straightforward:
$option: false;
@mixin doThing {
@if $option {
do-thing: yep;
}
}
.el {
@include doThing;
}
Can we do that in native CSS with custom properties? Mark Otto shows...
