RSS Stuff


Laura Kalbag wrote How to read RSS in 2020. This would be a nice place to send someone curious about RSS: what it is, what it’s for, and how you can start using it as a reader. I like this callout, too: Sometimes the content is just an excerpt, encouraging you to read the rest of the content...

Emergency Website Kit

Creating an Editable Site with Google Sheets and Eleventy


Remember Tabletop.js? We just covered it a little bit ago in this same exact context: building editable websites.

Get Static

The other day I was helping my pal Jez work Dept. of Enthusiasm, the site for his newsletter, and I had a thought. What if we made the word “enthusiasm” in the title animate a little bit? Like, what if each of the letters in the word bopped up and down enthusiastically? Like this: CodePen Embed...

Auto-Archival


I'm sure most of us have used the ol' Wayback Machine to access some site that's gone offline. I don't actually know how it decides what sites to archive and when, but you can tell it to save pages. There is UI for it right on its homepage. Also, there is a little trick... Typing...

I just saw this cool little site from Max Bittker: broider. You design an image on a 9-slice grid (except the middle part) and it will produce an image for you to use with border-image along with the CSS to copy and paste. Check out my little design: CodePen Embed Fallback The areas of the image...

Considerations When Choosing Fonts for a Multilingual Website


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?


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...
