Resizing Values in Steps in CSS
30.1.2020
There actually is a steps() function in CSS, but it's only used for animation. You can't, for example, tell an element it's allowed to grow in height but only in steps of 10px. Maybe someday? I dunno. There would have to be some pretty clear use cases that something like background-repeat: space...

Performance advice from David Calhoun on how many scripts to load on a page for best performance:

What’s the Difference Between Width/Height in CSS and Width/Height HTML attributes?
24.1.2020
Some HTML elements accept width and height as attributes. Some do not. For example:
<!-- valid, works, is a good idea --<img width="500" height="400" src="..." alt="..."<iframe width="600" height="400" src="..."</iframe<svg width="20" height="20"</svg<!-- not valid...
Component-Level CMSs
23.1.2020
When a component lives in an environment where the data queries populating it live nearby, there is a pretty direct line between the visual component and the database where that exact content lives. That is opening up doors to site editing experiences that travel that line. We're starting to...

Snowpack
14.1.2020
Snowpack. Love that name. This is the new thing from the Pika people, who are on to something. It's a bundler alternative, in a sense. It runs over packages you pull from npm to make sure that they are ES module-compatible (native imports).
This is how I digest it. When you write a line of code...
CSS-Only Carousel
10.1.2020
It's kind of amazing how far HTML and CSS will take you when building a carousel/slideshow.
Setting some boxes in a horizontal row with flexbox is easy.
Showing only one box at a time with overflow and making it swipable with -webkit-overflow-scrolling is easy.
You can make the "slides" line...
Is it better to use ems/rems than px for font-size?
10.1.2020
The answer used to be absolutely yes because, if you used px units, you prevented the text from being resized by the user at all.
But browser zoom is the default method for making everything bigger (including text) these days and it works great even if you use px.
But... Kathleen McMahon really...

How to Build Your Resume on npm
2.1.2020
Just yesterday, Ali Churcher shared a neat way to make a resume using a CSS Grid layout. Let’s build off that a bit by creating a template that we can spin up whenever we want using the command line. The cool thing about that is that you’ll be able to run it with just one command.

Validate CSP from Command Line
2.1.2020
The content security policy spec has been an amazing front-end security tool to help prevent XSS and other types of attacks. I’d go as far to say that every site should implement as specific CSP as possible. If you aren’t familiar with CSPs, here’s a quick example:...
PSA: It’s That Time to Update the Copyright Year on Your Site
1.1.2020
Every year about this time I see articles going around reminding people how to update the copyright on their websites. Usually somewhere in the footer. You know, a line like:
© Copyright 2007-2019 CSS-Tricks
I am very absolutely not a lawyer, but this is how I understand it:
You don't actually...

A couple of months ago, we invited Marc Anton Dahmen to show off his database-less content management system (CMS) Automad. His post is an interesting inside look at templating engines, including how they work, how CMSs use them, and how they impact the way we write things, such as loops.
