Thanks for including my little article 🥰

@bell.bz They dressed up. They put on their best little chili hat. It’s almost Christmas — they’re basically festive now — and you’re still pretending they don’t exist. Brutal.

A bit more niche, but next to fancy things like scroll-driven animations, CSS also introduced new math functions like round() and mod(). With them, you can take a time value like 1045 (without the colon) and calculate the minutes passed since midnight. bsky.app/profile/ichi...

Build a multi-stage timetable for a conference — fully in modern CSS. Each hour grows automatically to fit all sessions. 🍾 heavy use of subgrid. 🍾 round() and mod() to place sessions accurately 🍾 scroll-driven animations for sticky stage headings

There's a new #CSS Working Group poll to get feedback on different names for the infamous 'Pinterest' layout. - Since it uses many of the grid-* properties, `grid` will be in the name somewhere - We don't use metaphors in CSS names, so `masonry` is not listed here docs.google.com/forms/d/e/1F...

Has anyone else seen this in iOS 26? Sticky and fixed elements shift slightly out of view when scrolling down, then snap back when scrolling up. I made a demo to test it: cdpn.io/pen/debug/Qw... Curious if others can reproduce.

Visiting Seattle… I was NOT prepared for this. 🤣🤣 Breakfast was delicious though! #tailwind

My colleague @dhoelzgen.dev asked me to build a website for the (re)founded Elixir Ruhr Meetup. Had lots of fun experimenting with scroll-driven animations, border images… And if you’re brave enough, you can brew up some magic 🧙‍♂️✨ elixir-ruhr.dev

“I don’t like CSS” is coded speech for “I never learned CSS”

Had a wonderful day at @frontendnorth.bsky.social. Thanks a lot for having me. If you're interested in the slides to my talk, you can find them here: ichimnetz.com/slides/unwra... #FrontEndNorth

Looks like I’ve found the one and only Station™ 😄 Just landed in Manchester—next stop: Sheffield! Getting ready for @frontendnorth.bsky.social 🚆✨

There was a time when anyone could be an artist 👨‍🎨 — if they loved the work enough. Then came the professionals. Then came the camera. Today, it’s not paint that’s being replaced. It’s code. 9elements.com/blog/when-sk...

Wow – what a meetup! Huge thanks to everyone who joined our in-person gathering right after #CSSDay. Special shoutout to @miocene.io, Johannes, and Vilde for the fantastic talks. We had such a great time and hope to see you all again next year! 🙌

Closing off by following a presentation @css.cafe meetup. CSS in the News Room. So happy I still got to see a part of this! So creative. #csscafe #CSSDay . Very inspirational

Getting a shoutout from @ishadeed.com for our min-max calculator at #cssday? Made. Our. Day. 🥰 min-max-calculator.9elements.com?16,24,320,1200

Live goal achieved: I (well, mostly my slides) appeared in one of @miriam.codes’s talks—just minutes after I gave that exact talk myself. 🤯

In town for @cssday.nl on June 5–6? Join the Pre-CSS Day Afternoon Event on June 4 at 16:00 — hosted by CMD Amsterdam 🇳🇱 Talks by @ichimnetz.com & @miriam.codes, plus student CSS showcases ✨ 🎟 Free RSVP: gath.io/KwVtysIkOWcU...

If you're going to #CSSDay next week (or not), there is also a free-to-attend afternoon event at the Amsterdam University of Applied Sciences. With @miriam.codes and @ichimnetz.com speaking, the event is looking great. More info + registration: gath.io/KwVtysIkOWcU...

This looks really promising! Recently, I was late to the game in realizing that text inside <details> gets shown when found. Now, this takes it even further by giving you even more control over what can be found and made visible!

I built a little tool to check color contrast across an entire palette. 🎨 • Supports both WCAG 2.0 and APCA 
 • See how all colors compare at a glance • Import/Export CSS or JSON variables
 • Make sure your palette works for everyone Try it: palette-tester.9elements.com

@matuzo.at last year my husband started working in Nürnberg / Bavaria. Somehow that made me think about you a lot…

This is going to happen tomorrow 😍 👇 www.meetup.com/css-cafe/eve...

For the past three years, @9elements.com has worked collaboratively with UK agency Kore (www.kore.uk.com), helping the World Health Organization (WHO) to visualize global public health data on WHO’s data hub: data.who.int Read our blog post: 9elements.com/blog/visuali... #DataViz #PublicHealth

📝 New post! `aria-label` and `aria-labelledby` aren't allowed on divs, spans, and other static text elements out of the box, and *most* screenreaders won't announce them. #accessibility #a11y

🚀 Quick and Dirty Colour Palettes Using CSS color-mix() I explored how we can use the CSS color-mix function to create tint, shade, opaque, and neutral colours stacks. There's some specualtive 'future' CSS using a CSS functions and a Sass mixin t'boot. www.alwaystwisted.com/articles/qui... 🙏🖤

Good read. Similar to my experience with AI. I often ask myself If AI can help mostly senior devs and make them faster and more efficient, who is going to teach the junior devs of the future? Seems seniors are busy debugging AI code.

Well some years ago I made this. 9elements.github.io/fancy-border...

I grew up on these streets

I've been playing around with pure CSS circular charts. There's quite a lot solutions out there, but I did not find one where you had an underlying gradient AND rounded ends. Sadly still some sub-pixel glitches, but apart from that I'm quite happy with my solution: codepen.io/enbee81/pen/...
