Warp SVG Online


The warping is certainly the cool part here. Some fancy math literally transforms the path data to do the warping. But the UX detail work here is just as nice. Scrolling the page zooms in and out via a transform: scale() on the SVG wrapper (clever!). Likewise, holding the spacebar lets you...

The Cicada Principle, revisited with CSS variables


Lea Verou digging up the CSS trickery classic and applying it to clip the backgrounds of some code blocks: The main idea is simple: You write your main rule using CSS variables, and then use :nth-of-*() rules to set these variables to something different every N items. If you use enough...

SVG Title vs. HTML Title Attribute


You know the title attribute? I can do this: <div title="The Title"I'm a div with a `title` </div And now if I’m on a device with a mouse pointer and hover the cursor over that element, I get… Which, uh, I guess is something. I sometimes use it for things like putting...

Getting the Most Out of Variable Fonts on Google Fonts


I have spent the past several years working (alongside a bunch of super talented people) on a font family called Recursive Sans & Mono, and it just launched officially on Google Fonts! Wanna try it out super fast? Here’s the embed code to use the full Recursive variable font family from Google...

A Bit on Web Component Libraries


A run of Web Components news crossed my desk recently so I thought I’d group it up here. To my mind, one of the best use cases for Web Components is pattern libraries. Instead of doing, say, <ul class="nav nav-tabs"> like you would do in Bootstrap or <div class="tabs"> like...

Want to get better at code? Teach someone CSS.


A friend of mine recently asked me to teach her to code. She was an absolute beginner, having no idea what coding really involves. I decided to start where I started: HTML and CSS. Using CodePen, we started forking Pens and altering them. Soon, a learning path started to unravel. The aim of this...

The GitHub Profile Trick


Monica Powell shared a really cool trick the other day: The profile README is created by creating a new repository that’s the same name as your username. For example, my GitHub username is m0nica so I created a new repository with the name m0nica. Now the README.md from that repo is essentially...

Bold on Hover… Without the Layout Shift


When you change the font-weight of a font, the text will typically cause a bit of a layout shift. That’s because bold text is often larger and takes up more space. Sometimes that doesn’t matter, like a vertical stack of links where the wider/bolder text doesn’t push anything...

Accordion Rows in CSS Grid


I’d bet grid-template-columns is used about 10× more than grid-template-rows, but maybe everyone has just been missing out. Eric Meyer chucks a bunch of row lines onto his main site layout grid like this: grid-template-rows: repeat(7, min-content) 1fr repeat(3, min-content); That way, if...

Position Vertical Scrollbars on Opposite Side with CSS


Fair warning: I can’t say I recommend this in general because it breaks a very strong expectation of where scrollbars are, which are useful for a lots of folks, not to mention, a core accessibility feature for many. But it is a fascinating CSS trick and the web is a big place with...

Pausing a GIF with details/summary


Steve Faulkner has a clever idea here. You can show an (animated) GIF and overlay a pause/play button on top of it — which is really a <details>/<summary> element. When toggled, a (non-animated) JPG inside covers the GIF, effectively “pausing” it. Adrian Roselli calls...

Using Flexbox and text ellipsis together


You can truncate a single line of text with an ellipsis (…) fairly easily with text-overflow and a few friends. But, as you might expect, that truncation happens at the end of the line of text. What if you want to truncate content in the middle? Leonardo Faria details good use cases for this...

When do you use inline-block?


The inline-block value for display is a classic! It’s not new and browser support is certainly not something you need to worry about. I’m sure many of us reach for it intuitively. But let’s put a point on it. What is it actually useful for? When do you pick it over other, perhaps...

Levels of Fix


On the web, we have the opportunity to do work that fixes things for people. It’s fascinating to me how different the scope of those fixes can be. Consider the media query prefers-reduced-motion. Eric wrote: I think it’s also worth pointing out the true...

Backdrop Filter effect with CSS


I love these little posts where some tricky-looking design is solved by a single line of CSS using a little-known property. In this case, the design is a frosted glass effect and the CSS property is backdrop-filter. The approach? Easy peasy: .container { backdrop-filter: blur(10px); } The...
