What Hacker News says?

  1. This website [1] (actually, its codepen [2]) has a demo and even describes all the user-hostile reasons why developers might want to disable the right click menu. There are some other accessibility tricks that Firefox advertises [3] like ignoring website font and color choices. Firefox also has native support for overriding website CSS [5] but "modern" websites often come with impossible to understand DOM and CSS st…

    Bookmarked! I know CSS transforms relatively well, but there's just no substitute for a well-explained web page with interactive demos! Another similarly laid out web page I find myself going to is a Flexbox tutorial with demos, and toggles that show the difference between flex properties.

  9. I have no idea what your priorities are, so it's hard to guess. XD doesn't support Linux either. Apparently https://icons8.com/lunacy runs on Windows and can import and export to Sketch. Figma of course runs in a browser so works fine on all, and there is a Mobile UI toolkit for it: https://www.figma.com/templates/mobile-ui-kit/ https://www.smashingmagazine.com/2019/04/sketch-figma-adobe-... https://www.codeinwp.com…

  11. In section 4 (Creating an Online Course), the author links to her other article[1] about creating a WordPress membership site using plugins but specifically states these are free registrations that do not handle payments. I wish the author did explore payments more because there are WordPress plugins[2] that do provide subscription payment and reoccurring billing services integrated with payment gateways that truly…

  13. I noticed: <script src=" https://cdn.tailwindcss.com"></script> in the source of the homepage. Just FYI the tailwind people say that's just for dev mode and never deploy that to prod. Instead you gotta run something like: npx tailwindcss -o ../assets/css/tail.min.css --minify and then replace the script with: <link rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" href="/assets/css/tail.min.css"> "a script referred to as the Tailwin…

  15. The actual content that the title relates to is here: https://www.codeinwp.com/blog/transparency-report-30/#3 I was wondering at first how the title could possibly be relevant. It is, it's just not what they lead with, which perhaps annoyed me more than it should. But it really did annoy me a lot.

  17. > Statistically, we do. Sass won the precprocessor wars and nearly every developer prefer SCSS variables over the var(--oh-god) that is CSS syntax. This isn't about which preprocessor is the most popular; it's about the syntax that's going to be used for CSS that we're going to have to live with for a long time. Look, best practices come and go.
