✺ Frederik Dohr wrote about an approach to lazy loading custom elements on CSS Tricks. According to him:
Chances are you won’t actually need all this; there’s usually a simpler approach. Used deliberately, the techniques shown here might still be a useful addition to your toolset.
I have to admit that, since the site got acquired for 4 millions, it seems dead and is not the same.
✺ A mit license project that I don’t know why is not more popular: Xtend UI, a powerful frontend library of Tailwind CSS components enhanced by vanilla js. It helps you build interfaces with advanced interactions and animations.
✺ Outward: is a ( super cool font ) display font family coming in three cuts: Block (regular), Round (italic) and Borders (bold). Outward Block was initially designed in capitals only with the intent of getting rid of white spaces to reach a black type color, as opposed to the ideal grey sought after by typographers. The extended set of characters and families was developped following this root.
I am using Outward on my personal site, as an svg, thought.
✺ I am pretty sure that some of you havn’t seen this: PaperCSS the less formal CSS framework…
Look at the buttons you can make… so fancy.
