Just switched to #safari (from #firefox) for my #webdev work, primarily because it supports subgrid (unlike #chrome) and will display grid overlays for grids defined in shadowDOM (unlike #firefox which just says "CSS grid is not in use on this page") thank you @jensimmons 🙏
Great question in the @glitchdotcom community forum: What skills do software developers have beyond writing code?
To me, it's mainly about the ability to step back and evaluate how your decisions and your behavior affects the world around you, through empathy.
And you really have to be empathetic to yourself as well; know the value of your time. Opt in for simpler, more straightforward solutions. Ask for help when you need it.
Does anyone know any great self-pace #courses on #accessibily for #frontend and #web development? I'd like to get better at it, especially in light of upcoming regulations in the #EU.

#WebDev people, please don’t use #accessibility overlays when making your site. They create more problems than they solve for people with disabilities and they’re not enough for #WCAG compliance.

aria-owns allows developers to restructure the parent-child relationships in the accessibility tree. This means that screen reader users may experience a different semantic structure and meaning to other users when they navigate and interact with content using their screen readers virtual/browse mode.
How safe is it to use external images on your #website? I'm aware of the possible #tracking but is there anything else?
Should I just proxy them through my #backend? #programming#webdev
It's sad how often Firefox is marked as unsupported in this video. I'm so annoyed of Mozilla that they don't even seem to care anymore.
But Firefox users are probably the most loyal browser customers on this planet and most of them will probably use it even if many pages are broken because nobody wants to wait another year of Firefox catching up on basic features.
