Eleventy Love
17.1.2020
Been seeing a lot of Eleventy action lately. It's a smaller player in the world of static site generators, but I think it's got huge potential because of how simple it is, yet does about anything you'd need it to do. It's Just JavaScript™.

Debunking the Myth: Accessibility and React
15.1.2020

Animate Text on Scroll

Wufoo + Zapier
31.12.2019
Wufoo has always been great with integrations. They have integrations with specific apps, like Campaign Monitor, Mailchimp, and Typekit, but they also integrate with Zapier, which is sort of like an integration inside an integration.
That's kinda meta, but the idea is actually pretty...

I recently did an AMA over on DEV. Just taking the opportunity to port over some answers here like a good indiewebber.
If you were starting out as a front end dev in 2020, what would you say is the first thing you would learn and why?

Playing Sounds with CSS
25.11.2019
CSS is the domain of styling, layout, and presentation. It is full of colors, sizes, and animations. But did you know that it could also control when a sound plays on a web page?

How Building in the Open Can Change Our Industry
21.11.2019
I have to admit, I'm a developer who hasn't built a website. When I first read Chris's question, I sat in silence for at least a minute. Which technical topic did I want to discuss? A new library, programming language or best practice? Nothing, in particular, came to mind. Is that because I'm a...

19.11.2019
Heading into 2020, it occurs to me that I've now been making websites for 20 years. Looking back on that time, it seems as though our practices have been in near-constant churn, and that our progress did not always seem linear. But ultimately, even the missteps and tangents along the way have...
