Mediocre Web Developer / Co-Organizer VueATL / Listening. (he/him) I will talk about CSS. That is a threat. https://notacult.social/@fimion https://dangitalex.wtf https://alex.party Views do not represent opinions of my employer.
I feel like this is the same issue they had with :has() and why it took so long to fix. You have been able to do selector+* for a long time to get its sibling, but until recently you couldn't do selector:has(+*) to get the element that has a sibling.
Officially cut the v1 release of FancyGist, check it out!

You absolute pancake
The same image as the previous post but with a giant hand drawn button at the bottom with slightly tilted text that says "go to the docs"
One slight suggestion
Okay so important question @zachleat.com @11ty.dev
Will it still be obvious how to get to the docs?
Build awesome.... Not awesome possum?
Ahhh, I see now.
Do you need a developer?
Na, no dev.
Just so I've got this straight...
We used to type out the thing we wanted to do.
Then we made it so we can click on things and people hated to type out things.
Now we need to make everything work by.... Typing out things?

You know how people complain about cheap knock-off products that break really quickly and have no longevity and add to the growing piles of plastic garbage?
Unrelated, I'm sure vibe coded apps are the future and can be built quick and cheap and completely replicate well established projects.
i built an entire x86 CPU emulator in CSS (no javascript)
you can write programs in C, compile them to x86 machine code with GCC, and run them inside CSS

Browser developers are working on custom form controls ( `appearance:base`), the next giant task is looming: customisable input type=date/datetime/color pickers.
These are huge and have wildly varied UI. Send me your examples, I'd love to see them and build up a body of these pickers.
Like, I think I get the basic concept of like you give a public key to the server, and store the private key.
I'm just a bit more foggy on the implementation bit. Which makes me nervous about using them.
Alright, apparently I now have to learn about passkeys because my wife is locked out of her Nintendo account because 1password shit itself while trying to set one up.
Call me when your ai agent can fold my laundry and put away my dishes. Thank youuuuu
Good news everyone, my new passport is here so I have 10 years to try and get accepted to an international conference before I have to renew again.
I made the list too! Couldn't be happier to be on a list
Well, this is nightmare fuel:

"Love bot spam? Make it easier for bots to spam you! Now built into the browser!"
Also, I love that both the Security Considerations and Accessibility sections have absolutely zero work done.
The "S" in "MCP" stands for Security.
Hey Bluesky friends,
What UI patterns do you find the most complex or challenging to build or implement accessibly?
Multiselect popover Combobox. I want an easy combo box.
It should default to browser styles if prefers-reduced-motion is set to reduced
i feel like i need @xirclebox.com's take on this dumb focus style i've made:
codepen.io/editor/fimio...
🎶 "Gimme a break, gimme a break, break real fast with a product name here" 🎶
iTerm
Tailwind is the Markdown of CSS (derogatory).
Yeah, I should probably add the caveat "When you need it, you really really need it."
Starting a new blog series, where i talk about CSS features I've had to retire from my CSS talk because people don't like 2 hour talks.
