CSS
is
a style sheet language
that allows the intent of the designer to be communicated to a browser that executes on it
Not only @fantasai's talk today is reinforcing for me that "web design" is not dead.
We are not unicorns. Front end developers, once web designers, can and do design. We can! We do! We design with code, or in code. It's not unusual. Why the silos?
J'ai bientôt 6 ans d'expérience sur place, j'ai été sur pas mal de projets (Mail, Calendar, Signup, etc.), j'ai même occupé différents postes et dealé avec un paquet d'équipes en transverse (L10N, etc.), donc si vous hésitez à postuler ou si vous vous posez des questions, n'hésitez plus, demandez-moi :)
@christian if you’re moving away from SASS, perhaps you want to try vanilla extract. I’ve been using it for three years now and I keep finding new awesome things about it.
@javedAB Other ways to achieve it include removing Javascript altogether and replacing it by server-side scripting, as well as serving most if not all of your sources over a fast CDN.
@aeveltstra server side rending is a valid approach. i started with @astro and @solid_js . however, from what i guess, server side rendering is more cost intensive than static html
Here’s my latest case study for a server-rendered HTML of a Mastodon feed with only one progressive enhancement web component (github’s relative-time) — it turned out (surprisingly) pretty good if I may say so myself 🥹
@kevinleedrum awesome, I appreciate it! I still want to add how to create a GitHub action that runs a build every 24 hours, but I'm so bad at this haha
If you have an opportunity to attend this #FrontEnd study hall hosted by @artlung , do it!
The first session was amazing and super informative. As a result, ended up refactoring and simplifying the chaotic mess that was my stylesheets😊 Was unable to attend the second, unfortunately, but looking forward to the third this Thursday.
Honestly, the #web is unusable without an adblocker and some form of “tweaks” app these days. Ads are one thing but all these cookie and newsletter banners and autoplay videos. I’m so happy when I find my results on pages like Wikipedia.. #frontend
