The CodePen Editor supports WebMCP! The idea is to make it easy/fast for AI agents to understand what the editor can do and how to do it. Notably, the ChatGPT app supports it. Here's a 2-minute video on that. www.youtube.com/watch?v=T0b6... (Also the `agent-browser` CLI tool, so BYO agent!)
CodePen WebMCP via the ChatGPT App
The in-app browser inside the ChatGPT app supports WebMCP, a technology that exposes the functionality of websites to AI agents. All from the ChatGPT app I can have it navigate to CodePen, make a new…

Jesus, @derek-lieu.com wasn't kidding, the @drawquariumgame.bsky.social trailer is totally incredible. It made me cry, then I watched it again to show my partner and cried again? Deeply worth your time in a quiet moment. youtu.be/Z-NTmezsVds?...

The in-app notification for CodePen AI was fun to make. Penny gets to zoom around the <dialog> in a <canvas> with GSAP to make it smooth.
CSS-Tricks has a new owner! Yes, I've got the keys to the castle, so to speak. And, even after 12 years of working on the site, I'll admit I'm a little overwhelmed and nervous about that. https://css-tricks.com/css-tricks-has-a-new-owner/

One super cool detail is that @codepen.io AI double-checks its work. @chriscoyier.net and I were discussing the output from a simple prompt and while I was pointing out a small issue, AI had already caught the problem and was fixing it. Amazing to see in real-time. youtu.be/Re258px0v1k?...

Today marks 8 years of working at @codepen.io. It's still unbelievable that I've been able to work with such amazing people building an undeniably cool product. I had no idea that signing up for a CodePen account way back in 2013 would've lead to such an incredible journey ❤️
Fun new stream for @codepen.io School! Love doing these every week. Come hang out during the next one! youtube.com/live/Re258px...

Yesterday, the CSSWG accepted my proposal for mesh gradients and diffusion curve gradients! Want to make gradients like this natively in CSS? Well, we've started the work on it. It's coming! Here's the Explainer: github.com/w3c/csswg-dr...
Love to see it! If folks publish enough fun projects built on it, I might have to build a showoff page on the site to give others inspiration :)
🗺️ Multiplayer Cursors with Itty Sockets! @techsev.bsky.social mentioned ittysockets.com, a cool little library that seamlessly handles websocket connections for doing realtime communication. I had to give it a try, so I built this fun cursor demo. So much potential! codepen.io/editor/shsha...

I want to start an ensemble of French harp players named Philip to form the first true Phil Harmonica Orchestra.
Vale.Rocks already showed my @codepen.io pens in the firehose, but with CodePen's new fully featured REST API v2 I've made some improvements. My site now shows all my pens directly on my site with their own dedicated pages. I love open APIs! vale.rocks/demos

We've got a full-blown Read/Write API now. Just so ya know. blog.codepen.io/docs/api/api... REST or GraphQL.
Here's a cool I just tried and it worked great. I pointed my agent at a cool Pen I was working on with variable fonts. I said "go pull the files from this Pen and incorporate the idea into the header of this local WordPress site I'm working on" It worked great.

I'm looking forward to exploring the @codepen.io API. I've set up a selection of CodePen demos on my personal site, but they're forks that either diverge or have to be manually kept in sync. The API will let me use my local development workflow to keep self-hosted and CodePen-hosted pens in sync.
DID YOU KNOW: @codepen.io has a read/write API? blog.codepen.io/docs/api/api... Comes in GraphQL & Rest flavors so you can use what's best for your task. Updating a Pen is super easy and seamless.
