10.5.2019
👋 Hey folks! This is the first edition of a new weekly update we'll be posting that covers timely news at the intersection of development standards and the tools that make them available on the web. We often talk about the pace of change in our industry. It's fast and touches everything...

A responsive grid layout with no media queries

9.5.2019
Andy Bell made a really cool demo that shows us how to create a responsive grid layout without any media queries at all. It happens to look like this when you change the size of the browser window: I think this is a wonderful layout technique that’s just 6 lines (!) of CSS. .auto-grid...

Interviewing for a Technical Position Doesn’t Have to Be Scary

26.4.2019
Jacob Schatz (@jakecodes) is a staff engineer over at GitLab and was kind enough to share how he conducts job interviews for technical positions and his thinking process for them. Technical interviews are talked about often and can be a touchy subject for some, so it’s worth noting that this...

Under-Engineered Toggles

10.4.2019
Toggles. Switches. Whatever you want to call them, they've been with us for some time and have been a dominant a staple for many form interfaces. They're even baked right into many CSS frameworks, including Bootstrap and Foundation. It's easy to think of them in binary terms: on and off. Off...

Undefined: The Third Boolean Value

5.4.2019
I wanted to implement a notification message in one of my projects, similar to what you’d see in Google Docs while a document is saving. In other words, a message shows up indicating that the document is saving every time a change is made. Then, once the changes are saved, the message becomes: “All...

CSS Houdini Could Change the Way We Write and Manage CSS

28.3.2019
CSS Houdini may be the most exciting development in CSS. Houdini is comprised of a number of separate APIs, each shipping to browsers separately, and some that have already shipped (here's the browser support). The Paint API is one of them. I’m very excited about it and recently started to think...

How blockchain will disrupt the communication industry

22.3.2019
From the CMC editorial desk: One of the things we’ve always wanted to explore is what mass adoption of blockchain technology looks like. Here we have some examples of how it will change the face of the communication industry in […] The post How blockchain will disrupt the communication...

Using <details> for Menus and Dialogs is an Interesting Idea

21.3.2019
One of the most empowering things you can learn as a new front-end developer who is starting to learn JavaScript is to change classes. If you can change classes, you can use your CSS skills to control a lot on a page. Toggle a class to one thing, style it this way, toggle to another class...

Accessibility is not a “React Problem”

11.3.2019
Leslie Cohn-Wein's main point: While [lots of divs, inline styles, focus management problems] are valid concerns, it should be noted that nothing in React prevents us from building accessible web apps. True. I'm quite capable (and sadly, guilty) of building inaccessible interfaces with React...

Do CSS Custom Properties Beat Sass Loops?

2.3.2019
I reckon that a lot of our uses of Sass maps can be replaced with CSS Custom properties – but hear me out for a sec. When designing components we often need to use the same structure of a component but change its background or text color based on a theme. For example, in an alert, we might need...

Control Icons with Font Size

27.2.2019
Here’s a nifty trick from Andy Bell that now seems a little obvious in hindsight: if you set an SVG to have a width and height of 1em then you can change the size of it with the font-size property. Try and change the font-size on the body element below to see the icon scale with the text: ...

The Many Ways to Change an SVG Fill on Hover (and When to Use Them)

31.1.2019
SVG is a great format for icons. Vector formats look crisp and razor sharp, no matter the size or device — and we get tons of design control when using them inline. SVG also gives us another powerful feature: the ability to manipulate their properties with CSS. As a result, we can make quick...

How to Change Animated GIF Speed

29.1.2019
Comedians would tell you that timing is the most important part of any joke. The same could be said about animated GIFs; whether they&#8217;re used as a meme or to illustrate a process, the speed of an animated GIF can effect its effectiveness. With that idea in mind, I set about trying to figure...

prefers-color-scheme: CSS Media Query

28.1.2019
One device and app feature I&#8217;ve come to appreciate is the ability to change between light and dark modes. If you&#8217;ve ever done late night coding or reading, you know how amazing a dark theme can be for preventing eye strain and the headaches that result. macOS recently implemented...

In Defense of Utility-First CSS

15.1.2019
A rather full-throated argument (or rather, response to arguments against) utility (atomic) CSS from Sarah Dayan. I wondered recently if redesigns were potentially a weakness of these types of systems (an awful lot of tearing down classes) which Sarah acknowledges and recommends more abstraction...

Converting Color Spaces in JavaScript

10.1.2019
A challenge I faced in building an image "emojifier" was that I needed to change the color spaces of values obtained using getImageData() from RGB to HSL. I used arrays of emojis arranged by brightness and saturation, and they were HSL-based for the best matches of average pixel colors with...
