Don’t Get Clever with Login Forms

19.2.2019
Brad points out some UX problems with a variety of apps that are doing things a little outside of the norm when it comes to their login forms. There is already a bunch of things to get right with forms to begin with (e.g. use the right input types, label your inputs, don't have whack password...

In this challenge, we will be dealing with strings, arrays and objects. We will learn to manipulate these data types using various methods that'd bring us to a working solution in the end. E

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...

How to Send an iMessage From Command Line

30.12.2018
As somewhat of a recluse, believe me when I say that text messages, instant messenger, and iMessage have relieved me of loads of anxiety and wasted time with short, meaningless voice chat. It’s been a decade since these communication types have become popular so we’ve moved on from...

Hide Information in Images

9.7.2018
If you’ve followed this blog, you know that I’m obsessed with figuring out every way to interact with, abuse, and convert different types of media. Whether it’s images, video, or audio, if something can be changed or exploited, I want to figure out how to do it. I remember...

UTC is Enough for Everyone, Right?

20.6.2018
A good candidate for the Blog Post of the Year from Zach Holman. I think Eric Portis' "w descriptors and sizes: Under the hood" is up there too, but perhaps even nerdier. Ooooh, also Frank Chimero's "The Good Room" is up there. But I digress. Zach's article is as educational as it is funny. But...

Building a RSS Viewer With Vue: Part 1

18.6.2018
As I explore, learn, and most importantly, play with Vue.js, I've been building different types of apps as a way to get practice with and improve my use of it. A few weeks ago, I was reading about the shut down of Digg's RSS Reader and while great alternatives exist, I thought it would be fun...

A Strategy Guide To CSS Custom Properties

16.5.2018
CSS preprocessor variables and CSS custom properties (often referred to as "CSS variables") can do some of the same things, but are not the same. Practical advice from Mike Riethmuller: If it is alright to use static variables inside components, when should we use custom properties? Converting...

Native-Like Animations for Page Transitions on the Web

23.4.2018
Some of the most inspiring examples I’ve seen of front-end development have involved some sort of page transitions that look slick like they do in mobile apps. However, even though the imagination for these types of interactions seem to abound, their presence on actual sites that I visit do not....

The woes of date input

19.1.2016
One of the many new input types that HTML5 introduced is the date input type which, in theory, should allow a developer to provide the user with a simple, usable, recognisable method of entering a date on a web page. But sadly, this input type has yet to reach its full potential. Briefly, the date...
