Message received loud and clear. Just to clarify why there aren’t any demos right now: I originally built the site mostly for myself, as a quick reminder for simple things whose syntax is easy to forget. The use case was simple: I have my e

It wasn’t, but I’d be curious to know what specifically gave you that impression.

You’re right: it doesn’t identify the device type, so the title is misleading. The intended point is that device type is often the wrong thing to detect: a touchscreen laptop may expose both coarse and fine pointers, while a tablet may be c

Features built directly into the browser, without requiring a framework or third-party library. If the term is confusing, I’m open to better wording.

Agree to disagree. I don’t think preferring an in-place reveal makes navigation to a dedicated page a cheap UI/UX decision, it was a deliberate choice. Each note has a stable URL that can be shared or bookmarked and can be indexed inde

Yeah, it makes perfect sense. It’s definitely on my "I really should do this, but…" list.

Sure. I was thinking of fairly narrow cases, not ordinary page scrolling: - A swipe/drag carousel with visible arrows or dots, especially a looping carousel where the native scrollbar does not represent a meaningful start and end - An

If you mean the "Hide scrollbars" note, I agree 100% (: There are a few specific situations where it can be useful, but I added the caveat precisely because it’s generally not a good practice.

You’re absolutely right, thanks for the feedback. I initially included live examples (mostly through CodePen), but they were taking too much time to maintain, so I stopped. The Bash entry was really just a half-finished personal note that I

That’s fair, "tricks" may be overselling it. The website is meant to be a small, opinionated collection of features I want to remember, not a replacement for an authoritative reference like MDN. I can probably make that positionin

This article is very close to the idea behind a small website I’ve been maintaining mostly as a reference for myself, but which others might find useful too: https://htmlcat.net It’s a collection of short "post-it" not

I do not think the comparison really holds up. Tailwind can produce wildly different and highly customized results; Bootstrap generally cannot. They are different approaches, and preferences are obviously valid, but I do not think they are

LÖVE seems amazing, I’ve always looked at it with curiosity. There’s also the legendary Harvard CS50’s Introduction to 2D Game Development, which now uses it in its latest version. But I’m wondering: why do mature tools like this sometimes

I've built a minimal bookmark manager ( https://pin.garden ) that I've been using myself. It’s fast, bare-bones, and distraction-free. No animations, a single font, no images. I intentionally used "boring" tec

Kirby is by far the most fun CMS I've ever worked with. I’m really impressed by its unrivalled flexibility when it comes to managing content. Everything about Kirby feels refined, functional and consistent. Congratulations to the whole
