10.3.2020
As a front-end developer working for clients all over the world, I've always struggled to deal with multilingual websites — especially cases where both right-to-left (RTL) and left-to-right (LTR) are used. That said, I’ve learned a few things along the...
Is Twitter Helping Justin Sun and Other Cryptocurrency Celebrities Defraud?
8.3.2020
A site as hugely influential as Twitter should ideally take a balanced and responsible approach when suggesting blue check accounts and other popular influencers to follow in the crypto space. Fact is, this couldn’t be further from the reality: Twitter seems to constantly promote the same...
The Slideout Footer

A fascinating new site called The Markup just launched. Tagline: Big Tech Is Watching You. We’re Watching Big Tech. Great work from Upstatement. The content looks amazing, but of course, around here we're always interested in the design and tech as well. There is loads to adore, from the clean...
Automated Selenium Testing with Jest and LambdaTest
5.3.2020
You know what the best thing is about building and running automated browser tests is? It means that the site you're doing it on really matters.

What I Like About Craft CMS
3.3.2020
Looking at the CMS scene today, there are upwards of 150 options to choose from — and that’s not including whatever home-grown custom alternatives people might be running.

Selectors Explained
2.3.2020
Have you ever found yourself either writing a CSS selector that winds up looking confusing as heck, or seen one while reading through someone's code? That happened to me the other day.
Here's what I wrote:
.site-footer__nav a:hover svg ellipse:first-child { }
At the end of it, I honestly couldn't...
A Follow-Up to PHP Templating
28.2.2020
Not long ago, I posted about PHP templating in just PHP (which is basically HEREDOC syntax). I'm literally using that technique for some super basic templating I needed to do on this very WordPress site. The main pushback was that this kind of thing can be an XSS vulnerability. In my case, it's...
