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...

Design Systems and Portfolios


In my experience working with design systems, I’ve found that I have to sacrifice my portfolio to do it well. Unlike a lot of other design work where it’s relatively easy to present Dribbble-worthy interfaces and designs, I fear that systems are quite a bit trickier than that. You could make things...

Stackbit


This is not a sponsored post. I requested a beta access for this site called Stackbit a while back, got my invite the other day, and thought it was a darn fine idea that's relevant to us web nerds &#8212; particularly those of us who spin up a lot of JAMstack sites. I'm a big fan of the whole idea...

Downsides of Smooth Scrolling


Smooth scrolling has gotten a lot easier. If you want it all the time on your page, and you are happy letting the browser deal with the duration for you, it's a single line of CSS: html { scroll-behavior: smooth; } I tried this on version 17 of this site, and it was the second most-hated thing...

HMTL, CSS and JS in an ADD, OCD, Bi-Polar, Dyslexic and Autistic World


Hey CSS-Tricksters! A lot of folks tweeted, emailed, commented and even courier pigeoned (OK, maybe not that) stories about their personal journeys learning web development after we published "The Great Divide" essay. One of those stories was from Tim Smith and, it was so interesting, that...

Refactoring Tunnels


We’ve been writing a lot about refactoring CSS lately, from how to take a slow and methodical approach to getting some quick wins. As a result, I’ve been reading a ton about this topic and somehow stumbled upon this post by Harry Roberts about refactoring and how to mitigate the potential risks...

Learning to Learn


There’s been a lot of talk recently about whether or not you need a degree to be in tech (spoiler: you don’t). But please don’t take this to mean you don’t need any kind of education to be in tech, because by not getting a degree, you’re opting to replace the imposed learning structure of...

Do CSS Custom Properties Beat Sass Loops?


I reckon that a lot of our uses of Sass maps can be replaced with CSS Custom properties – but hear me out for a sec. When designing components we often need to use the same structure of a component but change its background or text color based on a theme. For example, in an alert, we might need...

Six tips for better web typography


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...

What We Want from Grid


We felt spoiled with CSS grid for a minute there. It arrived hot and fast in all the major browsers all at once. Now that we're seeing a lot more usage, we're seeing people want more from grid. Michelle Barker lists hers wants (and I'll put my commentary after): Styling row and column gaps. I've...

Getting Started with Gridsome


The era of Static Site Generators is changing over time, a lot of cool tools are being created to help foster the

iconsvg.xyz


There is a lot to like about Gaddafi Rusli's ICONSVG. It provides inline &#60;svg&#62;, 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...

The #StateOfCSS 2019 Survey


You know about the State of JavaScript survey, where thousands upon thousands of developers were surveyed about all-things-JS, from frameworks to testing and many other things in between? Well, Sacha Greif has launched one focused entirely on CSS. This is super timely given a lot of the content...

Quick! What’s the Difference Between Flexbox and Grid?


Let's go rapid fire and try to answer this question with quick points rather than long explanations. There are a lot of similarities between flexbox and grid, starting with the fact that they are used for layout and much more powerful than any layout technique that came before them. They...

Using Dotfiles for Managing Development and Many Other Magical Things


Howdy folks! &#x1f389; I'm Simon Owen, and over the years, I've loved being a part of and learning from the dotfiles community. I spend a lot of time teaching developers and running workshops. In those sessions, demonstrating how I set up my development environment is often one of things that folks...

The Slow and Steady Refactor


Over the past week or so, I’ve been reading Refactoring by Martin Fowler and it’s all about how to make sweeping changes to a large codebase in a way that doesn’t cause everything to break. I bring this up because there’s a lot of really good notes in this book that have challenged my recent...
