Filtering Lists Dynamically With Vue on the Server Side is Easier Than You’d Think
4.12.2019
I recently attended the ARTIFACT conference in Austin, TX, and was inspired by a few talks about accessibility through the lens of site performance. It became clear to me that there is this tendency to rely on big JavaScript frameworks to handle the work — like React, Vue, and Angular — but that...

There are loads of microsites and developer tools for looking at color accessibility, including tools built right into browser DevTools. They often show you if a color passes AA or AAA WCAG guidelines. But color contrast is more complicated than that because there is a wide variety of vision...

Dark Mode Favicons
4.12.2019
Oooo! A bonafide trick from Thomas Steiner. Chrome will soon be supporting SVG favicons (e.g. <link rel="icon" href="/icon.svg">). And you can embed CSS within an SVG with a <style> element. That CSS can use a perfers-color-sceme media query, and as a result, a favicon that supports...

Well, hey, look at that — it's time for this year's State of JavaScript survey!
You have taken this survey last year. Or in 2017. Or in 2016. It's been going on for a little while now and it always lends interesting insights into things like the features developers are using, the popularity...
Save Big on An Event Apart for a Limited Time!
3.12.2019
(This is a sponsored post.)
If you could get one gift from your boss this holiday season, what would you want it to be? You know, other than the usual mouse pad, picture frame or, my favorite, the ol' coffee mug and Starbucks card combo.
What if you were to receive something, hmm, more substantial?...

Masking GIFs with other GIFs
3.12.2019
The other day, Cassie Evans tweeted a really neat trick that I’ve never seen before: using SVG to mask one GIF on top of another. The effect is quite lovely, especially if you happen to grab a colorful GIF and place it on top of a monochrome one:

Having a Little Fun With Custom Focus Styles
2.12.2019
Every front-end developer has dealt or will deal with this scenario: your boss, client or designer thinks the outline applied by browsers on focused elements does not match the UI, and asks you to remove it. Or you might even be looking to remove it yourself.

Simplified Fluid Typography
29.11.2019
Fluid typography is the idea that font-size (and perhaps other attributes of type, like line-height) change depending on the screen size (or perhaps container queries if we had them).
The core trickery comes from viewport units. You can literally set type in viewport units (e.g. font-size: 4vw)...
Testing React Hooks With Enzyme and React Testing Library
29.11.2019
As you begin to make use of React hooks in your applications, you’ll want to be certain the code you write is nothing short of solid. There’s nothing like shipping buggy code. One way to be certain your code is bug-free is to write tests. And testing React hooks is not much different from how React...

The Power (and Fun) of Scope with CSS Custom Properties
27.11.2019
You’re probably already at least a little familiar with CSS variables. If not, here’s a two-second overview: they are really called custom properties, you set them in declaration blocks like --size: 1em and use them as values like font-size: var(--size);, they differ from preprocessor variables...
