Scroll-powered Accordion

https://codepen.io/fluffybacon-steam/pen/myeyEgv I've got this working 90% of the way there, but the behavior at the bottom is a bit gross. Anyone know how to keep the elements from overlapping once scrolling back the container? Looking for a CSS only solution. Thanks!...

Is there a better way to debug mobile keyboard/viewport related issues on PC?

Hi all! Responsive pages are very nicely testable in Chrome and Firefox, but both don't seem to support an emulated (virtual) keyboard that pops up, which makes virtual keyboard / viewport related issues the most annoying ones to debug. Of course for those kinds of errors svh, dvh, etc. come to the rescue, but what makes it difficult is the inability to easily test it and play around with it. Chrome's remote dev tools unfortunately aren't as reliable as I'd wish, and half the time I need to restart my browser, replug the phone, etc....

Is it worth learning a CSS Framework?

I'm self taught and have been coding for a couples years now and feel super comfortable just using vanilla CSS. Sometimes I run into very specific issues and ask someone for help and they just say I should use Bootstrap or something similar, and they can't help me. From the outside it seems like people who only use CSS frameworks don't have the base knowledge of CSS and can't problem solve smaller problems without their framework. My philosophy when first learning was to thoroughly learn everything in it's natural, vanilla state first, and then maybe move to frameworks if it was worth it. What is everyone else's experience? At this point I'm debating if it's worth using up my brain's RAM and Memory to learn a CSS framework or if it's irrelevant since I'm more than proficient in vanilla CSS. lol. Thanks for the help!!...

Components in front-end frameworks

Hello, I'm currently learning React, I often saw the term "component" widely use across the docs. This is not only in React but also in other frameworks, like Vue (Vue components). I was wondering, what do we mean by "component"? It's just a small piece of what HTML element we are going to create?

Is this design OK?

I'm playing around with styles but do not really know what are the design guidelines. I want someone experienced to give me some criticism on what I can improve and why.

Dynamic justification based on intrinsic column count

Hello folks! I'm layout something out with CSS Grid: four items. I'm going for a two-column layout on wider viewports, and one-column on narrow viewports. So far so good, including making the switchover intrinsic rather than resorting to media (or container) queries. The sticking point is that I'm looking to justify the items separately in the two cases. For the one-column layout, I want the items centered or stretched (not fussed either way), but for the two column layout I'd want the left column right-aligned and the right column left-aligned. ASCII art demonstration:...

cors trouble with localhost

I am trying to set up cors so that it works with vite front end. But it keeps failing even tho the console error in chrome seems to say that the origin matches. I found this bug but I can't really make sense of why this is the behaviour unless even the people in the bug thread don't know how to explain this https://issues.chromium.org/issues/40499674...

Overflow and container best practices

Does anyone know a best practice to fix the problem where say, I shrink the width of the viewport, but the content overflows (due to typography i think). Even though I am using clamp on my font-sizes. 😦 Need some urgent help with this. In the image you can see that content is overflow. Here's my css: https://github.com/ajkdrag/cutmycode/tree/main/static/css...

Server side vs Client side routing

Hello, can someone confirm whether the following statement is correct please: From what I've understood from server side routing, it's every routing logic happening in our back-end, like when we access the /About page, what route is responsible for that web page and how is it being delivered to the client. On the other hand, client side routing is when we navigate from page to page in our web app itself. Like when we click on the About button, should we be redirected to another page? Should the view of the current page be changed? This is what we call single page web app, when we have a single html page but multiple views?...
