So far so good! The name choice might be a bit of a stretch considering the small amount of authors the project was influenced by.
I have my own flavor based upon the comparison of UA stylesheets if interested: github.com/kripod/css-h...

Looks neat! Keep up the great work 🙌

Just a reminder how brittle democracy can be, despite the citizens becoming more inclusive over time. Evil triumphs when the good do nothing…
Styling HTML form controls is something web designers & developers have wanted for years! My team is working on a solution — apply `appearance: base` and switch to a new interoperable consistent default control. Then override it using new pseudo-elements. See the details: drafts.csswg.org/css-forms/

Yes, it's CSS. And yes, it's blazingly fast.
Usage:
background: oklch(from <color> var(--_ak-safe-l) c h);
There’s even an @eslint.org rule which prevents using labels in general but has the options ‘allowLoop’ and ‘allowSwitch’ to exempt those constructs: eslint.org/docs/latest/...

The answer here, like for most engineering problems, is ‘it depends’ 😄
Reduce should never be used with a non-primitive accumulator imo. We have more semantic alternatives like:
• Object.fromEntries() + entries.map()
• Object.groupBy() / Map.groupBy()
Even for primitives we’ll have Math.sumPrecise() soon ⏳ github.com/tc39/proposa...
Visually-hidden elements should be preferred over explicit labeling.
Despite being aware of that, I could never explain the “whys” before this article.
Had to use Safari for browsing the @npmjs.bsky.social ‘Versions’ tab of @astro.build
The ‘astro’ package has 1,000+ releases and the associated page just froze while searching on Chrome: www.npmjs.com/package/astr...
Perhaps the ‘content-visibility’ CSS property could help? web.dev/articles/con...
It was all fun until missing the flagpole top in the invisible bit of “that” level 🙃

Visitors of a website should be able to browse content comfortably on a 320×256px viewport. That equals 400% zoom on a 1280×1024px screen but such an enlargement may also consist of 200% text-only + 200% UI zoom. www.w3.org/WAI/WCAG22/U...
I wish the @tailwindcss.com will revise some changes before releasing v4, especially concerning accessibility. It’s such a responsibility to get things right at their scale.
Perhaps advanced features like breaking out of atomicity might be put behind a flag or at least discouraged by the docs? 🤔
I wish more rules had convenient defaults nudging us to write better code 😄 (some are just a matter of preference, though) github.com/kripod/eslin...

28.11.2024 10:45 — 👍 1 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 0That isn’t exactly the case as typescript-eslint’s docs refer to this example on MDN which throws an error asynchronously. The `await null` line makes a difference for the stack trace: developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/W...
28.11.2024 10:44 — 👍 5 🔁 0 💬 1 📌 1I never really found an ESLint config that’s fairly strict without going overboard
So I went through hundreds of core + @typescript-eslint.io rules 1 by 1, hand-picking the severity and options for each. This project culminates all my years of experience with JS/TS so far github.com/kripod/eslin...

I wish there was a catch-up marker splitting read and unread posts apart, like on Slack.
Great article, thanks for the idea 🙌
I also have my own reset built upon the line-by-line comparison of user-agent stylesheets: github.com/kripod/css-h...
So ironic how JavaScript is among the most forgiving languages and yet TypeScript offers mind-boggling safety & convenience features built on top of such a flexible base.

Not quite literally but it’s so disheartening to see past role models showing their true colors.
It depends. Guards on top for precondition checks but nesting otherwise.
I find control flow statements like ‘continue’/‘break’ to have less affordance than ‘return’ but the latter also gets harder to notice with more indentation.
Updated socials on my blog 🦋 to get rid of that confusing ‘X’ icon in the corner.
It’s a great relief 💆 www.kripod.dev
