What Are Design Tokens?

3.4.2019
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...

Form Validation in Under an Hour with Vuelidate

2.4.2019
Form validation has a reputation for being tricky to implement. In this tutorial, we’ll break things down to alleviate some of that pain. Creating nice abstractions for forms is something that Vue.js excels at and Vuelidate is personally my favorite option for validations because it doesn't require...

Scroll-Linked Animations

29.3.2019
You scroll down to a certain point, now you want to style things in a certain way. A header becomes fixed. An animation triggers. A table of contents appears. To do anything based on scroll position, JavaScript is required right now. You watch the scroll position via a DOM event and alter...

I Don’t Hate Arrow Functions

19.3.2019
TL;DR Arrow functions are fine for certain usages, but they have so many variations that they need to be carefully controlled to not break down the readability of the code. While arrow functions clearly have a ubiquitous community consensus (though not unanimous support!), it turns...

Little Things That Tickled My Brain from An Event Apart Seattle

14.3.2019
I had so much fun at An Event Apart Seattle! There is something nice about sitting back and basking in the messages from a variety of such super smart people. I didn't take comprehensive notes of each talk, but I did jot down little moments that flickered my brain. I'll post them here! Blogging...

Six tips for better web typography

27.2.2019
How do we avoid the most common mistakes when it comes to setting type on the web? That’s the question that’s been stuck in my head lately as I’ve noticed a lot of typography that’s lackluster, frustrating, and difficult to read. So, how can we improve interfaces so that our content is easy to read...

iconsvg.xyz

25.2.2019
There is a lot to like about Gaddafi Rusli's ICONSVG. It provides inline <svg>, which is the most generically useful way to deliver them, and probably how they should be used anyway. Each icon is a tiny amount of SVG and I'd bet they were all hand-golfed. They are all stroke-based, so they...

Using CSS Grid the right way

22.2.2019
Violet Peña has shared her recommendations for using CSS Grid. They basically boil down to these high-level points: Use names instead of numbers for setting up our grid columns. fr should be our flexible unit of choice. We don’t really need a grid system anymore. Although this is all great advice...

Deliver your best work with the help of monday.com

21.2.2019
(This is a sponsored post.) Here's the situation: You've bashed out a complicated design over two weeks of near full-time effort, gotten everything down to the exact spec of the design file, turn it in for stakeholder review and... you're way off scope. Turns out a few folks on the team put their...

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...

A Quick CSS Audit and General Notes About Design Systems

31.12.2018
I’ve been auditing a ton of CSS lately and thought it would be neat to jot down how I’m going about doing that. I’m sure there are a million different ways to do this depending on the size and scale of your app and how your CSS works under the hood, so please take all this with a grain of salt....

Gulp for WordPress: Creating the Tasks

27.12.2018
This is the second post in a two-part series about creating a Gulp workflow for WordPress theme development. Part one focused on the initial installation, setup, and organization of Gulp in a WordPress theme project. This post goes deep into the tasks Gulp will run by breaking down what each task...

A CSS Venn Diagram

17.12.2018
This is pretty wild: Adrian Roselli has made a series of rather complex Venn diagrams using nothing but CSS. With a combination of the Firefox dev inspector, plus a mixture of CSS Grid and the shape-outside property, it’s possible to do this and without a ton of hacks, too. I also think it’s super...

Sayonara Edge

4.12.2018
Sounds like Edge is going to spin down EdgeHTML, the engine that powers edge, and go with Chromium. It's not entirely clear as I write whether the browser will still be called Edge or not. Opera did this same thing in 2013. We'll surely be seeing much more information about this directly from...

Get Up and Win

5.11.2018
Down on my hands and knees, I crawl around, bleeding out.  I’m resigned to my fate.  A kind stranger, a new friend, rushes over to me and kneels to help, reviving me at a time that didn’t require it.  Just as I’m revived, the kind stranger says “Get up and win”.  I...
