Updating right now and definitely trying out the experimental rust compiler 🥁
I need a few incoming webmentions for testing (okay, this sounds like a really fishy attempt to generate likes … I promise that it is not! 😂). So would you all please like and repost this piece I recently wrote? You can also read it, of course.

Interesting. I started writing about the similarities between web development and martial arts a while ago...
I get to finish it sometime 😅
But sure why not skateboarding too. Or any kind of sport for that matter 🤷
I think I might have figured something fun out, but I need to test it with some more....
So, what's a situation you wish you had wrap detection for when using flexbox?
Footer navigation where alignement should change if wrapped. Currently using container query with some magic number for that.
Now that shape() is available in all major browsers, let me remind you that you can use my online generator to create any polygon with ... rounded corners!

Adjust the setting, then copy the code.
Embracing progressive enhancement can make it much easier to adopt newer web features.
💯% deserved 👍
how to make #CSS view transitions swoop or have motion blur
or how I learned to help view transitions not always go in straight lines

Absolutely... It's all just a matter of time. Point being that a fallback to AVIF, JPEG XL or WebP is still necessary today.
But that will change at some point for sure.
I'm also curious about what AVIF XL, or whatever the future AV2 based image format will be named, will bring to the equation?!
I switched to AVIF only for most websites last year, with JPG/PNG as only fallback.
WebP was no longer used, so saved some storage and CPU time 😎
Making keyboard navigation effortless. Introducing focusgroup.
Focusgroup is a new HTML attribute, with early support in Edge, Chrome, and other Chromium-based browsers, that completely handles arrow key navigation within complex widgets. No JS needed!

We relied on JavaScript for styling, layout, and state management because CSS couldn’t keep up. But CSS has evolved (fast). It’s finally time to drop the hacks and let CSS do the job it was meant to do.

Looking for a practical, beginner‑friendly way into accessibility? This plain‑English WCAG resource by @aaardvarka11y.bsky.social makes the first steps much easier.

Nice 🤓
Is focusgroup available to test in any browser yet?
I like to do that too, most of the times and plan to add it to my blog too...
As always they are exceptions where it's just noisy,e.g. when there are many external links or most links are external anyways
That's an interesting question...
Anybody have a take on this one?

Is that compatible with a "discombobulator"? 🤔
This is such a bad idea. The skills of those roles are not complementary, and developers and engineers are clueless about design and user experience. He seems proud of his decision, and that is worrying.
Absolutely. So many bad products out there because they were built with tools that are supposedly making expertise obsolete 🙄
The result: Much more money wasted using those apps than you would have needed to build them properly with an experienced team.
The latest Working Draft of WCAG 3 is out today! w3.org/TR/wcag3/
In this version, we've:
- moved lots of requirements to “Developing” phase,
- wrote down how to test,
- mapped reqs to user needs (using DAF),
- split out 'applies when' and 'except when' to massively increase readability

Don't miss the Devs.gent CSS & UI #meetup later this month! 🚀 We’re diving deep into View Transitions with @bram.us , and I’ll be taking the stage to experiment with some new ideas. It’s an opportunity to learn great things and to witness me tripping over some words 😀 www.meetup.com/devs-gent/ev...
Master class gamification 😎
I can’t tell if that’s a win for custom instructions, or just a polite way of saying some devs have used frameworks for so long they’ve forgotten that things other than a <div> actually exist. 😅
True that 👇
When you don't put `aria-hidden="true"` on decorative SVGs, they'll be announced by some screen readers.

Looking at @una.im's video, it seems to have been behaving as you expected at some point anyway: developer.chrome.com/blog/anchor-...
Or am I missing a key difference?
Oh, that's a cool feature. It's way more difficult on Windows.
At some point I got so tired of switching layouts that I just stick with the french one and just customized with my own key combos 😅
Darn. Your presence had a sweet impact 🤯😜
