You might as well really understand height and Josh Comeau has your back here. It’s really quite different than width and perhaps less intuitive. Plus when grid and flexbox get involved, things change.

We’ve been trying to make the point around here that the new shape() in CSS is awesome. It’s the powerful <path> in SVG ported to CSS so it can use actual units. It’s probably how path() should have ported to begin with, but c’est la vie. I’ll make the point in this demo. Resize those […]

A very interesting aspect of the AI smashing its way into every software product known to man, is how it’s integrated. What does it look like? What does it do? Are we allowed to control it?
