Currently Reading: Progressive Web Apps by Jason Grisby
3.5.2019
I’ve been reading Jason Grigsby’s new book on progressive web apps this past week and it’s exciting. Jason explains what PWAs are and how they work while while doing a bang-up job covering the business case for using them them, too. But perhaps you might be thinking that a PWA isn’t necessary...
Interviewing for a Technical Position Doesn’t Have to Be Scary
26.4.2019
Jacob Schatz (@jakecodes) is a staff engineer over at GitLab and was kind enough to share how he conducts job interviews for technical positions and his thinking process for them. Technical interviews are talked about often and can be a touchy subject for some, so it’s worth noting that this...
Make it hard to screw up driven development
2.4.2019
Development is complicated. Our job is an ongoing battle between getting the job done and doing that job in a safe, long-lasting way.

Learning to Learn
4.3.2019
There’s been a lot of talk recently about whether or not you need a degree to be in tech (spoiler: you don’t). But please don’t take this to mean you don’t need any kind of education to be in tech, because by not getting a degree, you’re opting to replace the imposed learning structure of...
Welcome to My New Office

A Site for Front-End Development Conferences (Built with 11ty on Netlify)
12.2.2019
I built a new little site! It's a site for listing upcoming conferences in the world of front-end web design and development. In years past (like 2017), Sarah Drasner took up this daunting job. We used a form for new conference submissions, but it was still a rather manual task of basically...
The ineffectiveness of lonely icons
11.2.2019
Icons are great and all, but as we've been shown time and time again, they often don't do the job all by themselves. Even if you do a good job with the accessibility part and make sure there is accompanying text there for assistive technology, in an ironic twist, you might be confusing people...

29.1.2019
David Heinemeier Hansson has written an interesting post about the current state of web design and how designers ought to be able to still work on the code side of things:
We build using server-side rendering, Turbolinks, and Stimulus. All tools that are approachable and realistic for designers...
The Great Divide
21.1.2019
Let’s say there is a divide happening in front-end development. I feel it, but it's not just in my bones. Based on an awful lot of written developer sentiment, interviews Dave Rupert and I have done on ShopTalk, and in-person discussion, it’s, as they say... a thing.

The practical value of semantic HTML
7.1.2019
I love how Bruce steps up to the plate here:
If the importance of good HTML isn’t well-understood by the newer breed of JavaScript developers, then it’s my job as a DOWF (Dull Old Web Fart) to explain it.

We recently covered this exact same thing, but from the perspective of a bunch of developers.
