People from the official Discord weigh in.

David Bushell has some choice words about modern WordPress development. I loathe what WordPress development has become. If you haven’t kept up with Gutenberg and full-site editing (FSE) you may be surprised at how radically different modern WordPress themes are — and not in a good way. I’m torn on all this. I actually think the block […]

Zooming in browsers is an accessibility feature. I’d say that any attempt to fight against it is bad form. Don’t do it. Leave it be. I have seen compelling examples of ways to code that work with browser zoom that help make a site look nicer when high levels of zoom are applied. But they […]

Google released a new page listing web platform features: webstatus.dev For the first time you’ll have a way to see the entire web platform mapped as a set of features, along with their support in browsers. It’s explicitly not a caniuse replacement. In fact it’s use case is rather niche: it’s mostly to show off […]

I’m almost impressed by how low the “used it” percentages are for certain features, like less than half of people have used a <details>?? And 28% are […]

A very basic step-by-step guide of exactly how to do it for static files like .html, .css, and .js files.

Everything was “HTML5” and “CSS3”, such was the success of that marketing effort. There was a logo and everything. It was a little cheesy, but it was a good thing. People saw […]

It’s worth noting that Automattic shipped a thing called Studio: … a fast, free way to develop locally with WordPress. Share your local sites with clients or colleagues and keep your local development process smooth and simple. It’s amazing to me that WordPress got to be as dominant as it is without any real answer […]

When you nest elements with border-radius, the inner element needs less radius than the outer element.

This is some classic advice on this, and a future-looking fix.
