I just saw this cool little site from Max Bittker: broider. You design an image on a 9-slice grid (except the middle part) and it will produce an image for you to use with border-image along with the CSS to copy and paste.

11.3.2020
This is a great blog post from Brad Frost where he walks us through an interesting example. Let’s say we’re making a theme and we have some Sass like this:

}
If the $form-background-color variable isn’t defined then...

Google Fonts + Variable Fonts
7.3.2020
I see Google Fonts rolled out a new design (Tweet). Compared to the last big redesign, this feels much more iterative. I can barely tell the difference really, except it's blue instead of red and this one pretty rad checkbox: Show only variable fonts.
An option to only show variable fonts is...
What to Use Instead of Number Inputs
6.3.2020
You might reach for <input type="number> when you're, you know, trying to collect a number in a form. But it's got all sorts of issues. For one, sometimes what you want kinda looks like a number, but isn't one (like how a credit card number has spaces), because it's really just a string...

Fixed Headers and Jump Links? The Solution is scroll-margin-top
21.2.2020
The problem: you click a jump link like <a href="#header-3">Jump</a> which links to something like <h3 id="header-3">Header</h3>. That's totally fine, until you have a position: fixed; header at the top of the page obscuring the header you're trying to link to!
