🚨CSS News

CSS Trigonometric Functions just landed in Firefox, are available in Safari and are slated to land in Chromium soon (tentatively version 111).

What are they?

@ifanmj The sun is doing an extra good job of not knowing what they're on about. Making a pun of a Welshman to talk about the English football team because no doubt they think Lawrence was English.

One of my friends spoke out about her experience with Modern Frontends.

I have some things to say too.

It seems like a lot of people do.

Ever wondered how a QR code works?

Tip: It's powerful for senior engineers to admit when they don’t know something. You can learn from others who do. This normalizes admitting where you have knowledge gaps (but want to learn) and is healthy for teams to see.

💡@nextjs tip: `next/link` will soon no longer require manually adding an `<a>` tag as a child. You can opt-in today with a flag before this becomes the default in the next major version.

I'm often asked why I don't use a fancy ligature font and this is exactly why. Fine to use on your own, but it creates tripping hazards.

I once had gitlens on during a workshop and the learner typed "2 days ago" as part of the code we were writing.

Did you know you can make your own custom pseudo classes?

The demo only works in... whoops, all browsers!

React opinion: most context providers should just be singletons instead.

e.g. not:

<RootStoreProvider store={rootStore}>
<App />
</RootStoreProvider>
