Self-Host Your Static Assets

Starting your own business isn’t easy given the reluctance of banks to grant credit. Gone are the days when a compelling business plan would be enough to have the branch manager shaking your hand and bankrolling your venture. For entrepreneurs in developing nations, where even obtaining...

These Tourist Destinations Welcome Bitcoin Cash Enthusiasts


Spending during the holiday season should be easy but borders, physical and financial, often complicate matters. A world currency that can travel with you and is widely accepted sounds like a good idea. Among cryptocurrencies, bitcoin cash is an ideal candidate, with its low fees and instant...

What Does it Mean to Be “Full Stack”?


I was asked this recently by a fellow developer who was at the same web tech conference I was at. This developer had met a lot of new people who literally introduced themselves as full-stack developers sort of the way Bob Vance, Vance Refrigeration would on The Office, but it was Tony Frank...

Our Value of Money Is Subjective But That Doesn’t Make It Meaningless


In my last op-ed, I discussed how the value we place on items and goods is subjective based on Carl Menger’s Subjective Theory of Value and how these concepts apply to people’s perception of value with things like fiat, gold, and bitcoin. The post outlined the idea that money cannot...

The Impact of Team Collaboration and Communication on Projects


(This is a sponsored post.) The CSS-Tricks team was cracking up the other day when Miranda introduced us to something called "swoop and poop." That was a new term for most of us, but tell me if you've ever experienced this for yourself. The idea is that someone in an organization — usually...

In Defense of the Ternary Statement


Some months ago I was on Hacker News (as one does) and I ran across a (now deleted) article about not using if statements. If you’re new to this idea (like I was), you’re in a for a real treat. Just search for "if statements" on Hacker News. You'll get articles proposing that you might not need...

What Are Design Tokens?


I’ve been hearing a lot about design tokens lately, and although I’ve never had to work on a project that’s needed them, I think they’re super interesting and worth jotting down a few notes about. As I understand it, the general idea is this: design tokens are an agnostic way to store variables...

KV Storage


localStorage is... Good! It's an incredibly easy API to use. localStorage.setItem('name', 'Chris'); let name = localStorage.getItem('name'); Bad! Philip Walton explains why: localStorage is a synchronous API that blocks the main thread, and any time you access it you potentially prevent your...

Differential Serving


There is "futuristic" JavaScript that we can write. "Stage 0" refers to ideas for the JavaScript language that are still proposals. Still, someone might turn that idea into a Babel plugin and it could compile into code that can ship to any browser. For some of these lucky proposals, Stage 0 becomes...

Better Than Native


Andy Bell wrote up his thoughts about the whole web versus native app debate which I think is super interesting. It was hard to make it through the post because I was nodding so aggressively as I read: The whole idea of competing with native apps seems pretty daft to me, too. The web gives us...

Breaking CSS Custom Properties out of :root Might Be a Good Idea


CSS Custom Properties have been a hot topic for a while now, with tons of great articles about them, from great primers on how they work to creative tutorials to do some real magic with them. If you’ve read more than one or two articles on the topic, then I’m sure you’ve noticed that they start...

Knowing who authored a code patch is a sacred and important practice in the world of software engineering. Knowing the author gives the reviewer an idea of trust level, know who to ask questions about the patch, and gives credit to the genius of an important fix. There have been times when...

Using <details> for Menus and Dialogs is an Interesting Idea


One of the most empowering things you can learn as a new front-end developer who is starting to learn JavaScript is to change classes. If you can change classes, you can use your CSS skills to control a lot on a page. Toggle a class to one thing, style it this way, toggle to another class...
