Here’s How I Solved a Weird Bug Using Tried and True Debugging Strategies


Remember the last time you dealt with a UI-related bug that left you scratching your head for hours? Maybe the issue was happening at random, or occurring under specific circumstances (device, OS, browser, user action), or was just hidden in one of the many front-end technologies that are part...

Why you should hire a front-end developer


Matt Hobbs says you should hire a front-end developer because… “A front-end developer is the best person to champion accessibility best practices in product teams.” “80-90% of the end-user response time is spent on the front end.” “A front-end developer takes pressure...

Advice for Complex CSS Illustrations


If you were to ask me what question I hear most about front-end development, I’d say it’s“How do I get better at CSS?” And that question usually comes up to some CSS illustration I made, which is something I love to do over on CodePen. To many, CSS is this mythical beast that can’t...

Web Engine Diversity and Ecosystem Health


As front-end developers, our job is working with browsers. Knowing how many we have and the health of them is always of great interest. As far as numbers go, we have fewer recently than we have in the past. It’s only this month that Edge is starting to auto-update browsers to the Chromium...

Increment Issue 13: Frontend


Increment is a beautiful quarterly magazine (print and web) published by Stripe “about how teams build and operate software systems at scale”. While there is always stuff about making websites in general, this issue is the first focused on front-end¹ development. I’ve got...

Let’s Take a Deep Dive Into the CSS Contain Property


Compared to the past, modern browsers have become really efficient at rendering the tangled web of HTML, CSS, and JavaScript code a typical webpage provides. It takes a mere milliseconds to render the code we give it into something people can use. What could we, as front-end developers, do...

“The title ‘Front-End Developer’ is obsolete.”


That title is from the opening tweet of a thread from Benjamin De Cock. I wouldn’t go that far, myself. What I like about the term is that ‘Front-End’ literally means the browser, and while the job has been changing quite a lot — and is perhaps fracturing before our eyes — the fact that...

Front-End Challenges


My favorite way to level up as a front-end developer is to do the work. Literally just build websites. If you can do it for money, great, you should. If the websites you make can help yourself or anyone else you care about, then that’s also great. In lieu of that, you can also make things...

CSS Findings From The New Facebook Design


Ahmad Shadeed digs around the new Facebook’s front-end code. One that stood out to me: .element { inset: 4px 0; /* Which is equivalent to: top: 4px, bottom: 4px, left: 0, right: 0 */ } Whaaat? This is the first I’ve heard of the inset property. Ahmad said he saw it working...

An Annotated Docker Config for Front-End Web Development


Andrew Welch sings the praises of using Docker containers for local dev environments: Here are the advan­tages of Dock­er for me: • Each appli­ca­tion has exact­ly the envi­ron­ment it needs to run, includ­ing spe­cif­ic ver­sions of any of the plumb­ing need­ed to get it to work (PHP, MySQL...

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...

Same HTML, Different CSS


Ahmad Shadeed covers the idea of a card component that has a fixed set of semantic HTML with some BEMy classes on it. There is a title, author, image, and tags. Then he redesigns the card into five totally different designs without touching any of the HTML just the CSS. If this is an ah-ha moment...

2020 Stack


In an article with the most clickbaity article ever, Joe Honton does a nice job of talking about the evolving landscape of web development.
