Last year, the team here at CSS-Tricks compiled a list of our favorite posts, trends, topics, and resources from around the world of front-end development. We had a blast doing it and found it to be a nice recap of the industry as we saw it over the course of the year. Well, we're doing it again...

Goals for 2019
31.12.2018
Every turn of the year is a new opportunity to start over, set goals, and renew optimism that time can heal wounds and drive us to change and achieve. I did really well with my 2018 goals: I started a fun podcast with TrackJS’ Todd Gardener I found my passion again by joining Mozilla’s...

WDRL — Edition 252: End of the year WDRL, have a great end and see you next year
14.12.2018
Hey,
it’s the last edition of this year and I’m pretty stoked what this year brought for us, what happened and how the web evolved. Let’s recap that and think what each of us learned this year, what was the most useful feature, API, library we used this year and how we personally changed. I’ve...
Creating an Animated Login Form for TouchID
11.12.2018
I came across this amazing Dribbble shot by Jakub Reis a while back. It caught my eye and I knew that I just had to try recreating it in code. At that moment, I didn’t know how. I tried out a bunch of different things, and about a year later, I finally managed to make this demo.
I learned a couple...

Realtime Cryptocurrency Rates API with coinlayer
24.7.2018
Last year when cryptocurrencies were gaining massively in value each month, I badly wanted to create a personal web project which would let me quickly buy and sell crypto outside of brokers like Coinbase; the problem I ran into was not having a reliable API for doing so. I recently discovered...
Developer Roadmaps
23.7.2018
The path to becoming a front-end developer, as looked back upon by anyone who self-identifies that way, is likely a very windy one full of thorn bushes and band websites. Still, documenting a path, even if it's straighter and far cleaner than reality, is an interesting exercise and might just...
Delivering WordPress in 7KB
10.7.2018
Over the past six months, I've become increasingly interested in the topic of web sustainability. The carbon footprint of the Internet was not something I used to give much thought to, which is surprising considering my interest in environmental issues and the fact that my profession...

Huge thank you
First, as ever, thank you for being part...
Handling Errors with Error Boundary
26.6.2018
Thinking and building in React involves approaching application design in chunks, or components. Each part of your application that performs an action can and should be treated as a component. In fact, React is component-based and, as Tomas Eglinkas recently wrote, we should leverage that concept...
UTC is Enough for Everyone, Right?
20.6.2018
A good candidate for the Blog Post of the Year from Zach Holman. I think Eric Portis' "w descriptors and sizes: Under the hood" is up there too, but perhaps even nerdier. Ooooh, also Frank Chimero's "The Good Room" is up there. But I digress.
Zach's article is as educational as it is funny.

The web can be anything we want it to be
6.6.2018
I really enjoyed this chat between Bruce Lawson and Mustafa Kurtuldu where they talked about browser support and the health of the web. Bruce expands upon a lot of the thoughts in a post he wrote last year called World Wide Web, Not Wealthy Western Web where he writes:
