Years ago I made https://fuckyeahkeming.com/ with the same premise. It had some good ones but after some time it’s just repeats of the same few words/letter combos for the funny ones: li becoming u, cl becoming d. Othe

Very cool. I recently implemented my own accessibility tree visualization [1] Yours is very interesting, getting away from the tree itself to a visualization more focused on grouping discrete units. My thinking was to show the entire struc

There is a proposal for that too: https://site.spawning.ai/spawning-ai-txt but it's wholly unclear if AI companies actually do something with this or if it's just wishful thinking... Some AI companies follow robot

That's pretty cool! Get ready to keep these up to date monthly or become obsolete quickly. One of the downsides of tools like this is that your URL needs to be available online so if there's an issue, your iteration loop is quite

Author here. The first styled example doesn’t have the style to respond to the checked state. I explain that in the article right below the example.

Nice overview, though I would advice against using device-specific breakpoints even beyond giving them device-specific names. Phones continue to get larger every year so designs made for 320px specifically started to become unoptimized when

I share what I write about on social, and share features as I release them or sometimes while I work on them, but I don’t think that counts as ‘doing social’. I do no retargeting or other type of social ads. Just post what I like on twitter
