After setting a new all-time high, bitcoin price corrected lower to USD 26,000. Recently, BTC started a fresh increase, settled above USD 27,00, and is currently (13:00 UTC) consolidating well above this level. Also, there was a fresh increase in major altcoins, including ethereum, XRP, EOS,...

clipPath vs. mask

27.12.2020
These things are so similar, I find it hard to keep them straight. This is a nice little explanation from viewBox (what a cool name and URL, I hope they keep it up). The big thing is that clipPath (the element in SVG, as well as clip-path in CSS) is vector and when it is applied, whatever you...

Recognizing Constraints

22.12.2020
There’s a “C” word in web development that we don’t give enough attention to. No, I’m not talking about “continuous integration”, or even “CSS”. The “C” word I’m talking about is “constraints”. Understanding constraints is a vital part of building software that works the best it can in its targeted...

Converting and Optimizing Images From the Command Line

21.12.2020
Images take up to 50% of the total size of an average web page. And if images are not optimized, users end up downloading extra bytes. And if they’re downloading extra bytes, the site not only takes that much more time to load, but users are using more data, both of which can be resolved, at least...

I learned to love the Same-Origin Policy

17.12.2020
I spent a good chunk of my work life this year trying (in collaboration with the amazing Noam Rosenthal) to standardize a new web platform feature: a way to modify the intrinsic size and resolution of images. And hey! We did it! But boy, was it ever a learning experience. This wasn’t my first...

Let’s Create a Lightweight Native Event Bus in JavaScript

11.12.2020
An event bus is a design pattern (and while we’ll be talking about JavaScript here, it’s a design pattern in any language) that can be used to simplify communications between different components. It can also be thought of as publish/subscribe or pubsub. The idea is that components can listen...

Creating websites with prefers-reduced-data

8.12.2020
Spoiler alert: There is no support for it yet. But it is defined in the Media Queries Level 5 spec that includes other recent, but more familiar user preference features, like prefers-color-scheme and prefers-reduced-motion. The Polypane blog goes into incredible depth on prefers-reduced-data...

Tailwind versus BEM

25.11.2020
Some really refreshing technological comparison writing from Eric Bailey. Like, ya know, everything in life, we don’t have to hate or love everything. Baby bear thinking, I like to say. There are benefits and drawbacks. Every single bullet point here is well-considered and valid. I really...

Rendering Spectrum

25.11.2020
Here are the big categories of rendering websites: Client: ship a <div id="root"></div> and let a JavaScript template render all of it. Static: pre-render all the HTML. Server: let a live server process requests and generate the HTML response. They are not mutually exclusive....

How to Load Fonts in a Way That Fights FOUT and Makes Lighthouse Happy

24.11.2020
A web font workflow is simple, right? Choose a few nice-looking web-ready fonts, get the HTML or CSS code snippet, plop it in the project, and check if they display properly. People do this with Google Fonts a zillion times a day, dropping its <link> tag into the <head>. Let’s...

Color Theming with CSS Custom Properties and Tailwind

19.11.2020
Custom properties not only enable us to make our code more efficient, but allow us to work some real magic with CSS too. One area where they have huge potential is theming. At Atomic Smash we use Tailwind CSS, a utility class framework, for writing our styles. In this article, we’ll look at...

My WordPress Comments Wishlist

12.11.2020
A built-in commenting system is one of the reasons people reach for WordPress (and often stay there long-term). While I do think having a comment system is compelling (and as big of a fan of building on WordPress as I am), I find the comments system on WordPress quite crusty. It needs some love!...
