Productive procrastination update: I’ve been building little browser games to test my design + coding chops. Breakout got a bunch of new features + UI polish, including a tiny Game Boy “power light” because I’m that guy. Tetris is a callback to my intro CSE final project. WIP, more soon.

I’m a bit of a customization nerd and I’ve been getting asked how I got my Mac to “look that way,” especially the Dock spacers and a few other flow tweaks. I turned it into a quick guide. Copy/paste commands, beginner-friendly, and everything includes a revert. medium.com/@tylercoderr...

Finally got around to watching the Hasek documentary and the nostalgia hits strong… youtu.be/Vy9U5ULr250?...

I’ve been wanting this so long…

New post: The Input Mask Field Guide Real examples, when to use a mask vs plain validation, and the a11y gotchas people keep shipping. HTML-first patterns, JS optional. medium.com/@tylercoderr... #UX #A11y #DesignSystems

This is a great and accessible read on understanding an implementing accessibility. I highly recommend it, and now it's even free, so go check it out...

I just published a piece on treating semantic HTML as interface infrastructure, not a styling detail. If your design system struggles with accessibility or hand-offs, the problem often starts in the markup. medium.com/p/semantic-h... #Accessibility #DesignSystems #HTML #WebDevelopment #UXDesign

I published a Design Systems Checklist based on real-world enterprise work. A practical way to sanity-check foundations, components, accessibility, and docs. Feedback is always welcome to make it as useful to others as possible. tylercoderre.com/projects/des... #DesignSystems #UX #Accessibility

I put together a macOS shortcuts reference based on the ones I actually use. It covers the common shortcuts most people half-remember, less obvious ones that save time once they’re muscle memory. I had a fun giving each shortcut animated keys that react on hover. tylercoderre.com/writing/macO...

Been messing around creating a simple browser-based version of breakout, and slowly making it mobile-friendly, though it's not quite there yet. It plays decent on desktops and laptops, and controls work on mobile but I still need to work on mobile sizing. Feature suggestions also encouraged.

Relaunching my personal portfolio at tylercoderre.com, it’s been a while. I’ve still got a bit of work to do, but it’s finally done enough to get out there as a work in progress while adding more details and images to my case studies. Even a mini breakout game I soon plan to make touch-friendly.

Likely the last game at The Ralph #GoBills

Ringing in the new year with a happy Ducky, who after a few treats, forgave us not taking her to boozy bingo

Kicking off a new experiment in writing and sharing resources on Medium hitting one year older… Hopefully over time some will find some use out of shared work on us design, accessibility, and other musings. Read my first article here: tylercoderre.medium.com/still-figuri...

Spending the night buried in dogs

All snuggled up for Christmas, counting down till unwrapped bones

It’s travel ban season, the most wonderful time of year… at least Ducky is frolicking in the powder like it’s the best day ever

Thawing out… #GoBills

Bye week vibes #GoBills

Finally had a chance to clean and tweak the setup with a rare instance of Ducky not being parked under my desk, and definitely digging the old school Mac UI wallpaper and screensaver #workspace

Game Days are Good Days #GoBills

Officially did a thing…

Treat yourself

Sometimes it’s the simple things around the house when you successfully get a color changing smart bulb, hooked up to a smart switch, and presence sensor, all in concert with each other…

New work buddy courtesy of my better half, hopefully I don’t end up killing it on accident

Spring cleaning and pent up couch aggression unleashed…

Hard work pays off, another tool added to the tool belt with passing the CPACC certification this week for web accessibility. Next up will be the WAS. #accessibilty

Getting into the summer spirit…

Shooting some some zombies on a tractor train at the pumpkin farm

All chill

Still recovering from week 1

A few hours in and having a blast with Starfield so far

Seeing Sum 41 is a blast from the past

A fresh new mailbox to help make the new place feel more real. That and the tiny little rust bucket mounted unreasonably high on the side of the house was no longer cutting it…

My new sit/stand battle station is finally starting to take shape

I guess this means I’m officially a home owner now…

Back from camping 🥰

Who could say no to this face

Yum…

Tomahawks all around

Tastes like summer

May the fur… I mean force… be with you

The John Mellancamp concert last night in Shea’s Buffalo was a good time. Me and my gf were the youngest in our section by maybe 20 years 😂

Today was a good day

This is insane considering it’s running about as well as it did on my Xbox at launch and this is a laptop using a toolkit literally announced the day before…

For those that didn’t inform me that there’s now a Crumbl Cookie nearby, sincerely, thank you for your service. I have fallen victim… **wipes crumbs**

Cuddle buds

huge game changer: custom feeds are like super-powered lists, and next week, you'll be able to plug-and-play what feed you see in your own app 🙌 i'm going to thread some ideas that i selfishly want to see come to fruition! feel free to add more, maybe someone will see it and build it :)
