🚀 A little while ago, I released an article on my blog redesign as a progressive enhancement. A few people DM'd me after that, asking for more info on the architecture. Well, it sure isn't perfect, and I'll surely tinker more on it, but I wrote about how I did the new CSS Architecture 🤓

Under the hood: a closer look at the CSS architecture behind the redesign | utilitybend

A deep dive into the CSS architecture behind utilitybend.com: cascade layers, a three-tier design token system, light-dark() for dark mode, a modern reset, container queries, logical properties, and progressive enhancement as a structural principle.

My first PR to servo just got merged! 🎉🥳

It adds support for the content property on the ::marker pseudo-element.

It was a rewarding experience, reading the CSS WG Spec, learning Rust, and the Servo repo!

Thank You @koala @mukilan @jdm_ and everyone who helped along the way :)

Browsers Should Have a Native Control for Per-Site Color Scheme

A proposal for browsers to offer a per-site color scheme control.

#HTML attribute names and #CSS values should be camelCased.

- “shadowRootMode”, not “shadowrootmode”
- “deepPink”, not “deeppink”
- etc.

They’re case-insensitive, and there is no reason to choose the worse version.

The notion that rapidly building high fidelity design work is more valuable is fundamentally untrue.

Your prototypes need to communicate the concept of the prototype.

I might argue that in depth prototyping is actually be counter to the point of developing many prototypes.

It can be distracting

«The 49MB Web Page» is a great summary of all that's wrong with much of the web along explanations of how we ended up there due to commercial ad incentives.
