One Way to Break Users Out of the Habit of Reloading Too Much
30.12.2019
Page reloads are a thing. Sometimes we refresh a page when we think it’s unresponsive, or believe that new content is available. Sometimes we’re just mad at the dang site and rage-refresh to let it know we’re displeased.
Wouldn’t be nice to know when a user refreshes the page? Not just that,...
France’s Social Media Stalking Points to the Violence of Fiat, Consent of Crypto
29.12.2019
France will soon be monitoring social media accounts to catch suspected tax evaders. The endeavor could label anyone as suspicious who so much as posts a “taxation is theft” meme or a poses with a nice car. The country’s budget minister, Gérald Darmanin, called...
So Many Color Links
27.12.2019
There's been a run of tools, articles, and resources about color lately. Please allow me to close a few tabs by rounding them up here for your enjoyment.
Curated colors in context
Happy Hues demonstrates a bunch of color palettes in the context of the site itself. That's a nice way to do...
7 Uses for CSS Custom Properties
27.12.2019
I find all seven of these quite clever and useful.
I particularly like using custom properties when you can sneak a variation into a place where you'd normally have to re-declare a whole big chunk of code.
.some-element {
background-color: hsla(
var(--h, 120),
var(--s, 50),
var(--l...
PHP Templating in Just PHP
26.12.2019
With stuff like template literals in JavaScript and templating languages, like JSX, I've gotten used to wanting to write my HTML templates in one nice chunk and sprinkling in variables wherever I need them.
I had a situation where I needed to do that in "raw" PHP the other day, so I'm just...
Firefox 71: First Out of the Gate With Subgrid
5.12.2019
A great release from Firefox this week! See the whole roundup post from Chris Mills. I'm personally stoked to see clip-path: path(); go live, which we've been tracking as it's so clearly useful. We also get column-span: all; which is nice in case you're one of the few taking advantages of...

(This is a sponsored post.)
Is it your job to keep an eye on your company's search engine placement? Or your clients? Or are you building a tool to do just that? Manually Googling stuff isn't going to scale particularly well there. Wouldn't it be nice if you could hit an API and it would return...
How We Perform Frontend Testing on StackPath’s Customer Portal
15.11.2019
Nice post from Thomas Ladd about how their front-end team does testing. The list feels like a nice place to be:
TypeScript - A language, but you're essentially getting various testing for free (passing the right arguments and types of variables)
Jest - Unit tests. JavaScript functions are doing...

Bidirectional Horizontal Rules in CSS
25.10.2019
Say you have a <blockquote> and the design calls for a thick border along the left side. Well, you might not necessarily mean left side, but actually mean on the side of the start of the text.
That's exactly what CSS logical properties are meant to address, and Hussein Al Hammad has a nice...
The Landscape of Cross-Platform App Development
25.10.2019
I don't track this stuff very well, but I get it. If you want a native app for Android and iOS, it sure would be nice to only have to write it once rather than two very different languages. Roughly double your reach without doubling the work. More and more of these things are reaching into desktop...
