I snuck this little #CSS gem into a project stylesheet to help the team remember #accessibility. 😎 #WebDev

RT @jensimmons: Let’s take a look at the 2nd :has() demo. We can make a grid for our content. Allow most cards to automatically fill a 1x1 area. And then use :has() to tell any card that has an image to instead take up a 2x2 area. article:has(img) { grid-column: span 2; grid-row: span 2; }

RT @mgechev: CSS is becoming 🔥 I had to write so much JavaScript for snappy scrollbars and now it's just two lines of code...

RT @CSSDayConf: CSS scroll-snap is a classic CSS property; small, innocent looking API with huge potential. @argyleink showed us a whole bag of snappy tricks at #cssday Full talk: Slides:

RT @Una: 👀 You may have heard of container queries, but have you heard of ✨ style queries?✨ 🎨 Style queries (also a part of the contain-level-3 spec) allow you to query for styles, not just sizes ✍🏼 I looked at some use cases & wrote up some early thoughts:

Taking a peek a someone’s #CSS and now I think I’ve been activated as the Winter Solider. 😳 #WebDev

RT @rleggos: my toxic trait is replacing flaky JS solutions with reliable CSS ones

RT @Jack_Franklin: Blogged: "Why I don't miss React: a story about using the platform". Some notes on my experience since leaving a React focused role to work on DevTools and how surprisingly pleasant it's been.

RT @argyleink: teach a label element to give itself a nice layout upgrade when it's wrapping a checkbox we :has()'nt seen nothing yet with :has()

RT @stevenpemberton: CSS co-designer here. !important was added for one reason only: laws in the US that require certain text to be in a given font-size. !important stops the cascade from changing it. Anything else is probably misuse, and a sign you may not understand the cascade properly.

RT @KevinJPowell: Modern CSS can make a lot of impossible things possible, but it also simplifies some things as well. One use case that I have on pretty much every project these days is setting up a container/wrapper width with min() and margin-inline.

RT @Una: CSS Cascade layers are coming to Chromium 99 (currently in Canary) & Firefox 97 (currently in Nightly) So what are they & how do you use them? 👀 I made a quick video to show you:

Something that I’ve been curious about: If you use a pot to boil water and that’s all you use it for, do you wash the pot when you’re done? 🤔 Okay, fight.

RT @AllThingsSmitty: A #WebDev's valentine. ❤️ #CSS #ValentinesDay

RT @Una: If you missed my talk yesterday, check out the article!

When you think about it, all of the reasons Corey Hart lists for wearing sunglasses at night seem pretty legit.

RT @hakimel: Input focus combined with validation 👀
