I bookmarked another post from this community that might relate nicely!
It's time for modern CSS to kill the SPA
Haven't gotten to trying all the cool css stuff in my own projects yet, but it certainly sounds interesting :D
And there is also https://plainvanillaweb.com/index.html that teaches how to replace js frameworks with what modern browsers offer right now.
with so many wasm frameworks you can use any language you like
:root {
color-scheme: light dark;
--text: light-dark(#000, #FFF);
--bg: light-dark(#EEE, #242936);
}
Hmm, I guess the advantage of that over
@media (prefers-color-scheme: dark) {
/*set different values for variables*/
}
is that you can set the color scheme via a button much more easily then.
Had to think about that for a moment, because the old way of doing things seemed fine, but that is a pretty good reason, I guess.
I wish there was a comprehensive resource for CSS. I’ve known for a very long time that I don’t know the half of it. But randomly clicking through the MDN topics has a very [Edit: ~~low~~ high] cost to benefit ratio. Where do you learn about the gems of CSS without getting bogged down by the obscure topics like text-emphasis-style
?
Josh W Comeau is a great resource to understand CSS.
CSS Tricks I don't visit regularly, but have occasionally seen neat examples. I presume someone less experienced or more "see by individual or small examples" finds it more useful than I.
