Instead of storing my data in the cloud, I just store it in the bush. It's the same thing, only palette-swapped. More accessible, too.

Why is there no VF interpolation previewer for Glyphs?

I guess there is now. Needs vanilla+fonttools.

💡CSS Tip!

Do you know that text-indent can take an extra value "each-line"? It allows you to have an indentation after each line! Useful if you rely on "<br>" to add new lines.

⚠️ It has limited support. Only Firefox and Safari for now⚠️

Demo: https://codepen.io/t_afif/pen/MWNBrab via   @codepen

Online Version: https://css-tip.com/text-indent/

#CSS #HTML

indent each line

You know any animal that wanders by can pee all over your data that way, right? It's just not safe. When it's up in the cloud, only birds can pee on it, so there's a lot less risk.

@ckape oh, and how they did the compression, with three small clouds / bushes into one big one is neat, too. I had to think for some seconds how they did it, how they could get rid of the black lines inside. But then I had my "Ah!" moment.

@ckape Well, you know what they say: a bit in the bush is worth two in the cloud.

...or something like that.

@ckape As an Australian I can confirm that storing data in the bush is pretty good. Don't have to worry about it precipitating but sometimes the roos take a nibble or two.
