centralised design system components that rely on a specific front-end framework has always felt like such an anti-pattern. framework lock-in from day one is wild. i'm sure i'm missing something but switching to framework-agnostic web components has been so freeing.

Been thinking about the Web platform & it's pretty incredible what #CSS can do now compared to what it did when I started in this field 14 years ago. We went from having too little to having almost too much (if you think how many of the new features you use day to day) Imagine where we'll go next!

my best code is written in a two-step process: 1. kludge a working prototype together, don’t worry about the code AT ALL. the point is understanding how the requirements function in reality 2. destroy the prototype completely. build the app for real using my better mental model

I often see the word 'kerning' used incorrectly by CSS heads when the term they're actually looking for to describe letter spacing is 'tracking'. Let me explain using CSS terminology! Tracking is the same as gap in flex layouts; consistent spacing applied across the entire text. But what if... 🧵
