Auto-Archival

20.3.2020
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...

Flexbox and absolute positioning

18.3.2020
Chen Hui Jing notes that when you absolutely position a flex item, it's no longer part of the flex layout. Except... it kinda is a little bit. If you make the child position: absolute; but don't apply any top/right/bottom/left properties, then flexbox alignment will still apply to it. It's odd...

Sass !default and themeable design systems

11.3.2020
This is a great blog post from Brad Frost where he walks us through an interesting example. Let’s say we’re making a theme and we have some Sass like this: .c-text-input { background-color: $form-background-color; padding: 10px } If the $form-background-color variable isn’t defined then...

I Pressed ⌘B. You Wouldn’t Believe What Happened Next

9.3.2020
This talk by Marcin Wichary is — beyond both enthusiastic and outstanding — all about the complexity of UI design, typography, and the lengths his team at Figma has gone to make sure that doing something as simple as selecting a font from a dropdown does what you expect it to.

If you can get away with it, animating any transform property is faster (and "cheaper"). Butttt, transform can be tricky. Check...

5.3.2020
Some commentary from Zack Bloom on the Cloudflare Blog, looking at requests to CDNJS for versions of jQuery. What we don’t see is a decline in our old versions which come close to the volume of growth of new versions when they’re released. In fact the release of 3.4.1, as popular as it quickly...

Why is CSS Frustrating?

28.2.2020
Here’s a great thread by Kevin Powell that's making the rounds. He believes so many folks see CSS as a frustrating and annoying language: That's just as unintuitive as JS starting to count at 0, but since you learned that and accept it, it's fine. The real issue isn't with CSS. If...
