Responsible, Conditional Loading


Over on the Polyplane blog (there’s no byline but presumably it’s Kilian Valkhof), there is a great article, Creating websites with prefers-reduced-data, about the prefers-reduced-data media query. No browser support yet, but eventually you can use it in CSS to make choices that reduce...

Converting and Optimizing Images From the Command Line


Images take up to 50% of the total size of an average web page. And if images are not optimized, users end up downloading extra bytes. And if they’re downloading extra bytes, the site not only takes that much more time to load, but users are using more data, both of which can be resolved, at least...

Late to Logical


2020 brought another wave of logical property features to major browsers and I’ve thoroughly enjoyed my investment into logical, rather than physical, web styling. I feel like I’ve learned a new way to speak about the box model that results in less written code with more global coverage. p { ...

How to Make an Area Chart With CSS


You might know a few ways to create charts with pure CSS. Some of them are covered here on CSS-Tricks, and many others can be found on CodePen, but I haven’t seen many examples of “area charts” (imagine a line chart with the bottom area filled in), particularly any in HTML and CSS alone. In this...

Lots of Ways to Use Math.random() in JavaScript


Math.random() is an API in JavaScript. It is a function that gives you a random number. The number returned will be between 0 (inclusive, as in, it’s possible for an actual 0 to be returned) and 1 (exclusive, as in, it’s not possible for an actual 1 to be returned). Math.random(); // returns...

console.log({ myVariable });


I think this might be my most popular tweet of all time, but I’m not sure how to verify that these days. I’ll restate this neat little trick here because blogging is cool and fun. I used to do this a lot while debugging JavaScript: console.log("myVariable: ", myVariable); But now I...

Libraries for SVG Drawing Animations


In 2013, Jake Archibald introduced this cool trick of animating an SVG path to look like it’s drawing itself. It’s 2020 now, and the trick is still popular. I’ve seen it on a lot of websites I’ve visited recently. I, too, feature an animated SVG loader on my website using one of the libraries I’ll...

Understanding flex-grow, flex-shrink, and flex-basis


When you apply a CSS property to an element, there’s lots of things going on under the hood. For example, let’s say we have some HTML like this: <div class="parent"<div class="child"Child</div<div class="child"Child</div<div class="child"Child</div</div And...

ARIA in CSS


Jeremey reacting to Sara’s tweet, about using [aria-*] selectors instead of classes when the styling you are applying is directly related to the ARIA state. … this is my preferred way of hooking up CSS and JavaScript interactions. Here’s [an] old CodePen where you can see...

GIFS and prefers-reduced-motion


The <picture> element has a trick it can do where it shows different image formats in different situations. If all you are interested in is formats for the sake of performance, maybe you’d do: <picture<source srcset="img/waterfall.avif" type="image/avif"<source...

Gray Burst


I made this neat little gray burst thing. It’s nothing particularly special, especially compared to the amazing creativity on CodePen, but I figured I could document some of the things happening in it for learning reasons. CodePen Embed Fallback It’s SVG SVG has <line x1 y1...

The CSS Custom Property Toggle Trick


Back in July 2020, I got an email from James0x57 (I always try to refer to people by their name, but I think I get the sense they prefer to go by screen name) that says: The entire world of branching conditional logic and bulk feature toggling for custom CSS properties is possible and only exists...

There has been mixed news for the central Bank of Korea (BOK) as it prepares to launch its first pilot for the digital won. The bank is still yet to make an official decision on whether it will actually launch the central bank digital currency (CBDC) or not, but recently claimed that it would...

Smarter Ways to Generate a Deep Nested HTML Structure


Let’s say we want to have the following HTML structure: <div class='boo'<div class='boo'<div class='boo'<div class='boo'<div class='boo'</div</div</div</div</div That’s real a pain to write manually. And the reason why this post was born was being...
