This is a wonderful post explaining how to make animations feel "right" (or why sometimes you don't need to animate at all). 👇

This really feels like the next evolution for CSS coding practices - what a great talk. Now all we need is proper browser support for these features (*cough* Firefox 😆)
In case you missed it, I've published the video of my talk, Smart Layouts, which I presented at CSS Day in Amsterdam.

✨ I just published a brand-new post! It’s about the notorious SVG <path> element.
With its compact Regex-style syntax, <path> can be super intimidating. But they’re also *incredibly* powerful, letting us draw (and animate!) curved lines.
You can read it here, and I’ll share more info in thread. 🧵

This one is different, I promise. It's my advice on approaching the options we have to center an element with CSS now and what pragmatic choices we should make.

Sup, Bluesky. Launched a new minimal VSCode theme, inspired by the beauty of cosmic solar activity.
It blends deep, futuristic tones with bursts of energetic colour, creating a workspace that feels both focused and alive.

I made a typeface, it's called Flexflex 🔠
I've been working on this project on-and-off for many months. Very happy to finally release it!
Flexflex is a typeface that responds to spatial requirements rather than imposing them.

This is about reducing banding effects in gradients by introducing noise. A nice approach is a displacement map using SVG filters.

I’m really digging the @bsky.app experience right now. Doesn’t feel a behemoth that Twitter turned into (and even worse when it rebranded...)
It has a smaller community type feel to it. A bit like moving from a cold city to a friendly town.
