Let's talk about the new popover feature added to HTML. I decided to create a few versions of a modal that contains a search form, just to both get experience as well as prove that this is a good new use of a popover. I am biased but I'm completely on board!

I’m nearing the end of the first phase of a website redesign, teaching myself new CSS, and sprinkling in some JS. Of the things I’m learning, I’m also rediscovering some old Safari linear-gradient issues and seeing some new Safari positioning bugs. (https://asuh.com/?p=2310)

Not sure which #css features you should start using on your project? There's a great tool at caniuse.com to import your analytics to generate localized usage metrics (vs global) for your project. You'll have immediate feedback to know if you can progressively enhance features like anchor positioning, :has(), or view transitions.

Introducing Forage, my new hybrid starter theme joining Roots Sage and FootMATE.

This is a project of love, giving me an opportunity to learn new technologies and simplify the WordPress theme I was using. While this might not technically be the last theme I apply to my personal site, WordPress is moving into a new direction of lots of Javascript to drive a WordPress block theme.

Maybe this idea isn't easy, but I think a unified Getting started navigation column and Compose column that's both responsive and collapsable would make for an improved user experience.
