Whales Control Most of Litecoin, Many Ethereum Tokens
19.12.2019
A new study of 140,000 crypto addresses finds that few accounts are needed to form majority ownership of many coins. More than half of all LTC is held in just 189 non-exchange addresses, and on average, the top 100 ERC20 tokens are majority-owned by just 34 addresses. Almost 1 in 4 tokens had...

Print-Inspired Layout on the Web
18.12.2019
I always love seeing people get inspired by print design and trying to port it over to the web. There is a much deeper history of interesting print work to draw from, and still a ton of modern work happening that eclipses most digital design work today. The web is fully capable of bold, interesting...

The Making of a “Special Series” on a WordPress Site
18.12.2019
We just ran a fancy article series here on CSS-Tricks with a bunch of different articles all answering the same question. By fancy, I mean two things:
The articles had a specially-designed template just for them. (Example)
The series has a specially-designed landing page.

css.gg

I'm not sure what to call these icons from Astrit Malsija. The title is "500+ CSS Icons, Customizable, Retina Ready & API" and the URL is "css.gg" but they aren't really named anything.
Anyway, their shtick is:
The 🌎's first icon library designed by code.
The idea is that they don't...

The Order of CSS Classes in HTML Doesn’t Matter
17.12.2019
That’s right! And I can prove it, too. Let’s look at some CSS first:
.a {
color: red;
}
.b {
color: blue;
}
And now let’s look at some markup:
<div class="a b">Here’s some text</div>
The text is going to be blue because .b is defined last in the CSS, right? But what if we...
The JAMstack Landscape
17.12.2019
It's no big secret that Netlify invented the term JAMstack. While it's possible to embrace the JAMstack without using Netlify, it's notable that Netlify is at the very heart of the whole "JAMstack landscape."
What does "JAMstack landscape" even mean? I like the term because it sets the stage that...

Container queries don’t exist today but a lot of web developers have been arguing in their favor lately.

Anil Dash:
If Instagram users could post links willy-nilly, they might even be able to connect directly to their users, getting their email addresses or finding other ways to communicate with them. Links represent a threat to closed systems.
