Web Developer Search History

Logical Operations with CSS Variables

11.9.2019
Very often, while using switch variables (a variable that's either 0 or 1, a concept that's explained in a greater detail in in this post), I wish I could perform logical operations on them. We don't have functions like not(var(--i)) or and(var(--i), var(--k)) in CSS, but we can emulate these...

Creating a Maintainable Icon System with Sass

28.8.2019
One of my favorite ways of adding icons to a site is by including them as data URL background images to pseudo-elements (e.g. ::after) in my CSS. This technique offers several advantages: They don't require any additional HTTP requests other than the CSS file. Using the background-size property...

Reverse Lookups with JavaScript

28.8.2019
I’ve always loved exploring regular expressions because they’re one of those skills that’s never taught in school — you need to pick them up on the fly, messing up and fixing them along the way. Regex’s are incredibly powerful, and one power they have are referred...

GraphQL is a query language for APIs that is very empowering for front-end developers. As the GraphQL site explains it, you describe your data, ask for what you want, and get predictable results. If you haven’t worked with it before, GraphQL might be a little confusing to grok at first glance....
