Every month I turn my open browser tabs into a blog post.

I made a page on my website with all the links I've posted from turning my browser upside down and vigorously shaking out the loose tabs at the end of every month. There's even a random button. Get 'em before they link-rot! https://sambreed.dev/links

How I use little Web Components (Custom Elements) to improve my website

I made web component out of a common pattern I use in UI, combining a range slider with a number input- https://potch.me/2023/range-num-web-component/
<range-num>, a useful little web vanilla web component

I'm working on a few small demos and a thing I often find myself needing is a combination <code>input[type="range"]</code> with some sort of label, or even an <code>input[type="number"]</code> showing the same value.
