How to Use the Locomotive Scroll for all Kinds of Scrolling Effects
16.12.2020
I was recently looking for a way to perform scrolling effects on a project and I stumbled on the Locomotive Scroll library. It lets you perform a variety of scrolling effects, like parallax and triggering/controlling animations at scroll points.
You might also call it a “smooth scrolling” library...
Netlify & Next.js
14.12.2020
Cassidy Williams has been doing a Blogvent (blogging every day for a month) over on the Netlify Blog. A lot of the blog posts are about Next.js. There is a lot to like about Next.js. I just pulled one of Cassidy’s starters for fun. It’s very nice that it has React Fast-Refresh built-in....
MDN on GitHub
14.12.2020
Looks like all the content of MDN is on GitHub now. That’s pretty rad. That’s been the public plan for a while. Chris Mills:
We will be using GitHub’s contribution tools and features, essentially moving MDN from a Wiki model to a pull request (PR) model. This is so much better...
A Microsite Showcasing Coding Fonts
1.12.2020
We made one! It’s open source if you want to make it better or fix things.
There are quite a few purpose-built fonts for writing code. The point of this site is to show you some of the nicest options so you can be aware of them and perhaps pick one out to try that suites your taste.
We used...
Super Tiny Icons
30.11.2020
A bunch of SVG icons (of popular things) all under 1KB. SVG is awesome for golfing.
I was going to add a CodePen logo but there is already one in there at 375 Bytes. I’ve got one at 208 Bytes, based on a logo update David DeSandro did for us a couple years back.

DRY-ing up styled-components
23.11.2020
I like working with styled-components. They allow you write CSS in your JavaScript, keeping your CSS in very close proximity to your JavaScript for a single component. As a front-end developer who loves to dissect a web page and break it down into reusable components, the idea of styled-components...

[10 minut čtení] E-maily ničí planetu, chybí svobodný a open source vyhledávač, Douglas je skoro člověk, Roblox je plný vulgarit, Twitter spustil fleets. Co dalšího přinesl uplynulý týden? Apple od 1. ledna sníží svou provizi z transakcí v App Store na 15 %. Bude to platit pro všechny vývojáře...

GitHub opět vystavil kódy youtube-dl. I pirátský prográmek má právo na život
18.11.2020
Před pár týdny zažila komunita na GitHubu drobnou revoltu okolo repozitáře youtube-dl. Americká asociace hudebního průmyslu RIAA tehdy skladiště zdrojového kódu požádala, ať celý projekt smaže. Důvod? Jedná se o nástroj ke stahování videí a hudebních stop z YouTube.
GitHub vyšel přání předběžně
Upptime
18.11.2020
GitHub Actions are like free computers.
Well, there is pricing, but even free plans get 2,000 minutes a month. You write configuration files for what you want these computers to do. Those configuration files go into a repo, so typically they do things specific to that repo. I’m sure that...
This page is a truly naked, brutalist html quine.
4.11.2020
Here’s a fun page coming from secretGeek.net. You don’t normally think “fun” with brutalist minimalism but the CSS trickery that makes it work on this page is certainly that.
The HTML is literally displayed on the page as tags. So, in a sense, the HTML is both the page...

2.11.2020
Having a semantically versioned software will help you easily maintain and communicate changes in your software. Doing this is not easy. Even after manually merging the PR, tagging the commit, and pushing the release, you still have to write release notes. There are a lot of different steps,...

Get that desk more cuter, fam. Amy (@sailorhg) has this perfectly cute minisite with assorted desktop backgrounds, fonts, editor themes, keyboard stuff, and other accessories. These rainbow cables are great.
And speaking of fonts, we’re still plucking away at this microsite for coding fonts...

On October 23, the Microsoft-owned Github leveraged an ostensible DMCA takedown in order to remove 18 projects from the code-hosting portal. According to sources, the takedown stemmed from a request filed by the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA). Github’s recent move has made...

12 Defi Con Artists Exposed – Are Rug Pulling Incidents Threatening the Future of Defi ?
12.10.2020
The ongoing hype about the abnormally high returns from Defi tokens has naturally seen many more investors moving funds to decentralized protocols. As of October 10, total value locked in Defi protocols was nearly $11 billion. However, despite this apparent endorsement of Defi, rug pulling...
On the Web Share API
6.10.2020
I think the Web Share API is very cool (here’s our coverage). In a nutshell, it taps into the native sharing features on whatever platform you’re on, if that platform supports it. So essentially…
I like this:

Parsel: A tiny, permissive CSS selector parser
2.10.2020
If you’ve ever thought to yourself, gosh, self, I wish I could have an Abstract Syntax Tree (AST) of this CSS selector, Lea has your back.
If you’ve ever thought that same thing for an entire CSS file, that’s what PostCSS is, which has gone v8. PostCSS doesn’t do anything...
POW
30.9.2020
As a connoisseur of web trickery, this is a must share:
POW stands for Packaged Offline/online Webpage. It turns out the png format includes ways to save metadata alongside the image file. A powfile has a metadata entry that contains a zip file that contains a full website.
So a PNG file...
