Made a browser extension that randomly adds silly cross-document view transitions to all websites. Now it's time to create a collective repository of silly transitions for all of us to share.

Having way too much fun and spending way too much time on the @gsap-greensock.bsky.social and @codetv.dev hackathon, hopefully I’ll be done tomorrow 😅

A case study on bad puns about data fishualisations, how students helped come up with concepts, and what I eventually built.

One of my students had to resit his assessment today and talk about what he learned during the minor. One of the things he said he learned was how open and approachable CSS folks are, during CSS day but also when he emailed @miriam.codes with a CSS question and was so delighted she responded! ❤️
Early bird tickets have been let out the door. Folks have already got theirs. Think of how much cooler the day is going to be on 13th November surrounded by YOUR people, and watching 8 amazing talks. It's an infectious day (in that good way!). Join us: 2026.ffconf.org
I can tell everyone now! I’m speaking at @ffconf.org in November 🥳, tickets go on sale next week! ✨
Not sure if I can say, it’s yet to be announced, I’ll send you a DM!
