But answering your initial question, form implementation always makes me nervous. I recently made one and had to battle a bit between a11y and security stuff, because some of the startegies used (like duplicate inputs to fool spam bots) would conflict with a11y good practices.

There was also the issue with the popover attribute availability across most browsers - that article was written in 2024. As of 2025 it became newly available.

Property, sorry. Popover property.

Accessible CSS-only burger menu, by Joana Ray and Samuel Traquina. A frontend exercise about making an accessible CSS-only burger menu with checkbox and popover methods, by Joana Ray and Samuel Traquina. In this article we demonstrate animated menus using pure CSS wi...

I found that navigating the page using only the keyboard was pretty easy and focus works well. Just not sure the popover element is semantically adequate and would actually like to discuss that detail, ahah.
Anyway, here's the demo: www.joana.cc/sandbox/css-...

A friend and I did an experiment on this while trying to make a dropdown menu without using JS. A lot of people were talking about using a checkbox input but those have big a11y issues, so we came up with an alternative using the popover and it seems to work well!

Back in May 31, 2015 I took a series of pics of Miya rolling around the floor. There are more poses, so now I wanna turn this into a full pattern :D

Thinking once again about this "hack" women were sharing a few years ago (a long thread on Twitter), about using a made up male-assistant to deal with email communications.

Here's an article about that, from 2021.

Good Omens – Nome PrΓ³prio, by Joana Ray Good Omens is a short story about that time a ladybird landed on my hand, pooped and immediately flew away, and it's part of the "Nome PrΓ³prio" anthology.

Finally updated my portfolio with the little comic I made for a collaborative zine with 9 other fellow illustrators also named Joana :)

It's called Good Omens and it's about a ladybird that landed on my hand, pooped and immediately flew away.
The little prick.

a gif of a man holding a stick with the words make gifs at gifsoup.com underneath Alt: Animated gif of Star Wars Kid, aka Ghyslain Raza in which he wields a golf ball retriever in imitation of Darth Maul's lightsaber moves from the film Star Wars: Episode I – The Phantom Menace.

I'm so excited, I'm feeling a bit like the Star Wars Kid.

Holy shit.
Someone *actually read my cover letter* and replied accordingly!

Is this... is this what hOpE feels like?!

We're meeting next week.
Wish me luck!

My favourite part is when they ask you for a cover letter or to say why YoU'rE tHe peRfEct fiT but then just send you an automated email and don't even tell you why you're not good enough. πŸ‘

Well, I'm a sucker for classic theme building 😬 but even with a block theme, if you power it with something like ACF you can get pretty good results and a cleaner backoffice.
I hate how slow it is to load a post on the backoffice... (in my defense, my experience is with websites built by others.)
