Dark mode and variable fonts
23.4.2020
Not so long ago, we wrote about dark mode in CSS and I’ve been thinking about how white text on a black background is pretty much always harder to read than black text on a white background. After thinking about this for a while, I realized that we can fix that problem by making the text thinner...

Create a Responsive CSS Motion Path? Sure We Can!
15.4.2020
There was a discussion recently on the Animation at Work Slack: how could you make a CSS motion path responsive? What techniques would be work? This got me thinking.
A CSS motion path allows us to animate elements along custom user-defined paths. Those paths follow the same structure as SVG paths....
Thinking in Behaviors, Not Screen Sizes
11.4.2020
Chase McCoy wrote a nifty post about the “gap problem” when making a grid of items. His argument might be summarized like this: how should we space elements with margins in CSS? He notes that the gap property isn’t quite ready for prime time when it comes to using it with flexbox, like this:

In this piece, Eric Meyer argues that performance is more important than ever right now — especially for websites that contain critical information for the public:

CSS Viewport Units
26.3.2020
