Ebb, Meet Flow: Intrinsic Design in a Nutshell The future of web design is nearly 30 years old, and still too little understood. https://zeldman.com/2026/08/18/ebb-meet-flow-intrinsic-design-in-a-nutshell/

Ebb, Meet Flow: Intrinsic Design in a Nutshell

In 2020, the gifted makers of websites at Clearleft shared methods to achieve fluid responsive design. “Utopian” web design was (and still is) their half-kidding name for this approach, which Apple’s Jen Simmons, working indendently, called “intrinsic design.” Instead of chasing an ever-changing number of fixed breakpoints, utopian or intrinsic design follows the web’s intrinsic ebbs and flows…

📚 I've got a few quid left in my work learning budget to use. What books are people reading & loving (that can *reasonably* be chalked up against an internally public and auditable work list)...

Heading Brighton-wards for #ffconf. Looking forward to hanging out with a bunch of front-end friends and listening to some top talks. I'll be snapping pictures again this year so come get a red lanyard from me if you'd rather not have your picture taken or posted afterwards 📸 @ffconf.org

This time tomorrow we'll be running our tech checks and preparing the registration desk to hand out all those lovely conference passes. There's still tickets left. Not many, but some. See you tomorrow?

My little boy's got this life thing worked out already. He wakes up, clambers out of his sleeping bag, informs us that he still has toes before declaring it's "BAGEL TIME!" and tottering to the kitchen cupboard. Unbridled joy at those little bread rings.
