Coming to Liverpool in spring 2027, Viewport is a conference about the web, the people who build it, and the people we build it for. Follow for updates, and sign up for our mailing list. No spam, we Promise.resolve();

Finally got around to adding Bluesky to my blog... and then blogged about it. Built on 11ty, supports Likes, Reposts, and Replies (with basic threading). Lots of implementations out there, but mine grabs once per build, not every page load on the client. 🚀 stevenwoodson.com/blog/adding-...

All the cool kids were adding Bluesky reactions to their personal sites and I felt left out, so I finally made some time to get it added to mine. Supports Likes, Reposts, and Replies (with some basic thread support). Any interest in a blog post about how I did it for my Eleventy-based site?

Over the past 19 years, my team @cloudfour.com have shared over 600 articles and resources with the #WebDesign community, absolutely free. But now, our design practice is in danger without your help. Please read and share: cloudfour.com/thinks/more-... #OpenToWork #UXDesign #UIDesign

#SotB26 final presentation by @cassiecodes.bsky.social called "Game on!" A really fun canvas game made with JS and GSAP, started with rectangles and some physics. Cassie layered on more features one at a time until it was full of features like tasks, enemies, and energy!

#SotB26 "Lessons from Building for the Bottom of the Web"by @mikehall314.bsky.social is next. A fascinating deep dive of a project that necessitated a 128kb limit to all page content over the wire + including images! A good reminder to respect the users time and bandwidth.

Now at #SotB26 is Jason Williams talking about Temporal DateTime. Hearing more about the history, why it's taken so long, the issues it fixes, and the challenges of implementation was fascinating. Seeing some of the cool things we can do with this actually makes me excited to work with dates!

Next up is @zachleat.com with "It’s 10PM do you know where your JavaScript is?" 14 iterations of an image comparison component over the years, using available technologies from that year. Really illustrated how things have evolved, and how imagination can really make the difference!

Third session of #SotB26 is @kitation.co.uk with "Plateau of Accessibility Compliance". Interesting comparisons with Accessibility of video games via Game Accessibility Guidelines (GAG), like how they share good examples, and real spaces with real people. Focus on recentering disability!

Next up at #SotB26 is Fiona Safari's first presentation, "The Art of Connection". Sharing more detail around introversion, a topic near and fear to me as an introvert myself. Three zones and pursuing the growth zone - somewhere between comfort and panic. Great practical advice!

First up at #SotB26 is @bram.us giving us a rundown of the latest features available for CSS Anchor Positioning. Way more uses than I thought, and way less JavaScript as a result, doesn't get much better than that!

The FCC just opened public comments on SpaceX's plan to launch a million satellites to do AI compute in space. Under the current proposal, an environmental review won't be required. Please consider submitting a public comment to oppose this damaging plan. darksky.org/news/two-sat...

This is such a great read! "Decades ago, maybe life was less intense, and people with these little differences had a little more time and space in society to just be." This speaks to something I've been mulling over, everything being so much faster and more intense now has to factor in right?

This is a great read! Really nice reminder that there are many kinds of social networks out there, any of which have the ability to change your life. Great things happen in the small spaces, like DMs and group chats. You don't always have to post publicly to build a solid network.

I just got sucked into smallandnearlysilent.com/bicross/daily/ from @eli-oat.bsky.social and it was a great brain teaser, here's my results for today Friday, February 20th 2026 Level: 6/6 Hearts: 3/5 Misses: 2

Age verification? I remember when starting Windows involved typing `win` in a command prompt.

It's magical when products feel tailor made for you and "just work", that's how I'd describe Polypane. It's the vibe I strive for with Be Inclusive too, so being able to easily jump from one to the other now is a full circle moment for me, so proud! #SotB26 is 2 weeks out, get your tickets ASAP!

I’ve just received an accessibility audit of my Open Collective project page but I can’t implement the changes bc it’s a 3rd party platform. Are there donation platforms available in Europe/UK that have good accessibility (i.e. meets WCAG to a high standard) that folks would recommend?

Temporal is the Date system we always wanted in JavaScript. It's extremely close to being available so Mat Marquis thought it would be a good idea to explain exactly what is better about this new JavaScript date system. piccalil.li/blog/date-is...

"Fly, you fucking fools"

I've had an execeptionally tough year. I have no income or health insurance, and could really use your help finding my next paid project. 💜 semanticfish.com/2025-year-in... Open to front-end, full-stack, design system, & accessibility projects. 10+ years experience. Many more details in post!

This is the best 2025 year-end wrap up post I've read. Honest and unflinching on calling out global issues, while managing to be inspiring and hopeful for the future. "Spend less time scrolling timelines and chasing metrics. Spend more time embracing the things that you love" - My mantra for 2026

I've set up a small monthly newsletter called Focus State. With accessibility support shrinking in a lot of orgs, I wanted to create something that divides that gap, builds community, and makes the internet a bit more fun. If you dig digital accessibility give it a look: annaecook.com/newsletter

💚 The new GSAP Demo Hub is here! 🤘 We’ve kicked things off with 50 demos, with plenty more on the way, including some framework-specific collections and inspiring community contributions. Would you like to contribute or suggest an example? Get in touch, we’d love to hear from you! demos.gsap.com

A few years back, I nearly wrote "The Fallacy of Federated Design Systems." Then @nathanacurtis.bsky.social beat me to it. But what happens when you try it anyway? At Spotify, I watched federated fail twice, resulting in a huge number of barely reused components and damaged trust in design systems.

I've never seen the industry so reluctant to spend. I had a company with 9 figures (yes, in USD) in revenue turn down a low five figure quote for a custom solution that would be revenue generating. As a side note, if you're looking for a web swiss army knife, your gal is free in Q1~

I’m often asked for freelance UI/UX designer recommendations, but my list is out of date — most folks I used to refer are now full-time or doing other work. Time to fix that. If you’re an independent UI/UX designer doing hands-on client work, drop your website/portfolio! DM/email fine too. [1/2]

A bit of a vulnerable post by me but we need your help to get us through what has been a more difficult period than 2020. It would be really appreciated if you could read and share in your networks too 💛 bell.bz/its-been-a-v...

JavaScript for Everyone is a course designed to teach you not just the how, but the why of JavaScript — the kind of deep-magic knowledge that can otherwise take years to develop. For the next two weeks, you can pre-order for £149, saving £100 off the full price of £249. piccalil.li/javascript-f...

Hi all! 👋 I was laid off and am looking for my next senior front end developer role. I have 19+ years of experience working with small agencies and Fortune 500 companies and focus on writing clean, accessible HTML, CSS, and JavaScript. Resume: aubreysambor.com/resume/ Leads/reposts appreciated!

"Appreciation" is too strong a word, but I do have a newfound perspective on the bits of positive progress that came from past tech bubbles after reading this.
