Maybe you don’t need a traditional server to run a web app that needs a node server backend. Maybe the requests that need that can go to a cloud function on demand.
Most folks use one of the big browsers that we’ve all heard of. But there are more and more niche browsers built upon those big open source engines that differentiate themselves in interesting ways.
Sometimes pretty simple HTML elements have a lot of things to consider and take care of, from interactivity, styling, accessibility, and more.
Do you need it? Not really, custom properties are probably a better bet. But it still has a bit of utility and it’s fun to think about.
Now that we’re starting to be able to apply types (like `number`) to values of attributes we pull of HTML elements in CSS, doing interesting things with
Using hard color stops with `repeating-conic-gradient()` and the double-stop syntax, we can pretty easily create a burst background. Then get fancier.
These buttons animate from a square to an arrow, and we look at three different ways to do it, each with their own upsides.
A rare fundamental change to browser default stylesheets: <h1> elements used to get smaller the more <section>s they were nested within, but no more. I would guess because the HTML Outlining Algorithm never really materialized.
A bit of a pivot from the Redwood gang, splitting RedwoodJS into Redwood GraphQL …
To minimize disruption and provide clarity going forward, we’re renaming the existing RedwoodJS framework to Redwood GraphQL, reflecting its strength as a mature, stable framework built around GraphQL.
… and the newfangled RedwoodSDK. Redwood has always been ultra opinionated (I remember making a slide about it once), and so this feels in-line to me. It’s now so opinionated it adds where you can host it to the mix. But I get it — Cloudflare’s stuff is pretty unique/cool/powerful/opinionated in itself, so it’s a good match. I was also just bemoaning React Server Components slow uptick, and now eating my words as now another major-ish framework is supporting them.
