Matthias has a good solution for dealing with the behaviour of CSS custom properties I wrote about: first set your custom properties with the fallback and then use feature queries (@supports) to override those values.
An excellent example of an HTML web component from Eric:
Extend HTML to do things automatically!
He layers on the functionality and styling, considering potential gotchas at every stage. This is resilient web design in action.
This looks like a really interesting proposal for allowing developers more control over styling inputs. Based on the work being done the customisable select element, it starts with a declaration of appearance: base.
This is a great little helper in understanding anchor positioning in CSS.
It’s great to see the evolution of HTML happening in response to real use-cases—the turbo-charging of the select element just gets better and better!
Make your links beautiful and accessible.
You might want to use `display: contents` …maybe.
Had you heard of these bits of CSS? Me too/neither!
Using the CSS trinity of feature queries, logical properties, and unset.
Let me hear your blocky talk.
