To grid or not to grid

20.8.2020
Sarah Higley does accessibility work and finds that “tables and grids are over-represented in accessibility bugs.” The drum has been banged a million times: don’t use a <table> for layout. But what goes around comes around. What’s the the #1 item in a list...

Simple Node.js Proxy

18.8.2020
When I wanted to refresh my React.js skills, I quickly moved to create a dashboard of cryptocurrencies, their prices, and and other aspects of digital value. Getting rolling with React.js is a breeze — create-react-app {name} and you’re off and running. Getting the API working...

That’s Just How I Scroll

14.8.2020
How do you know a page (or any element on that page) scrolls? Well, if it has a scrollbar, that’s a pretty good indication. You might still have to scrapple with your client about “the fold” or whatever, but I don’t think anyone is confused at what a scrollbar is or what...

Don’t Wait! Mock the API

10.8.2020
Today we have a loose coupling between the front end and the back end of web applications. They are usually developed by separate teams, and keeping those teams and the technology in sync is not easy. To solve part of this problem, we can “fake” the API server that the back end tech...

zerodivs.com

10.8.2020
Pretty neat little website from Joan Perals, inspired by stuff like Lynn’s A Single Div. With multiple hard-stop background-image gradients, you don’t need extra HTML elements to draw shapes — you can draw as many shapes as you want on a single element. There is even a stacking order...

More Control Over CSS Borders With background-image

7.8.2020
You can make a typical CSS border dashed or dotted. For example: .box { border: 1px dashed black; border: 3px dotted red; } You don’t have all that much control over how big or long the dashes or gaps are. And you certainly can’t give the dashes slants, fading, or animation!...

JavaScript Fatigue

6.8.2020
From Nicholas Zakas’ newsletter, on how he avoids JavaScript fatigue:  I don’t try to learn about every new thing that comes out. There’s a limited number of hours in the day and a limited amount of energy you can devote to any topic, so I choose not to learn about anything...

Promise.allSettled

3.8.2020
The Promise object has many useful functions like all, resolve, reject, and race — stuff we use all the time. One function that many don’t know about is Promise.allSettled, a function that fires when all promises in an array are settled, regardless of whether any of the promises...

Apple declined to implement 16 Web APIs in Safari due to privacy concerns

25.7.2020
Why? Fingerprinting. Rather than these APIs being used for what they are meant for, they end up being used for gross ad tech. As in, “hey, we don’t know exactly who you are, but wait, through a script we can tell your phone stopped being idle from 8:00 am to 8:13 am and were near...

Holy Albatross with Widths

24.7.2020
Heydon’s Holy Albatross is a technique to have a row of elements break into a column of elements at a specific width. A specified parent width, not a screen width like a media query would have. So, like a container query (ya know, those things that don’t exist yet that we...
