I think everyone who thinks that it is no longer necessary to understand software engineering principles because of AI should spend a few minutes every day browsing /r/vibecoding. It's so so clear that technical skills are still worthwhile.

Another banger of a tutorial from Josh. So cool!

This is really cool. The ghosts feature is super useful.

Can’t praise / recommend this course hard enough! 👇

✨ I just released a new (free!) tool for creating custom Bézier curves! courses.joshwcomeau.com/tools/bezier It has one special feature that I haven’t seen anywhere else, and it allows us to do something pretty cool. 🧵

Forgot to mention: I’m running a 40% launch sale! But only for the first week. ⏰

Just put out the first two free learning paths on The Cascade, looking at Flexbox & Grid. They're a curated list of videos from YouTube, but ad free, with editors in the lesson for you to follow along with, recaps of the content with each video, and extra challenges. thecascade.dev/learning-pat...

✨ I just published a brand-new blog post! It digs into one of my favourite modern CSS features, the Animation Timeline API. We explore how to create rich scroll-driven animations without JS. I share the little gotchas to watch out for + some of the more advanced things you can do with this API. 😄

On my list for this year. I purchased previous courses from Josh and they were probably the best courses I ever took

just registered for whimsy.joshwcomeau.com 😍 been looking forward to this one for a while! Thanks @joshwcomeau.com !!!

New blog post: Compositing & Blending! 🥳 I spent the last few months reading all about blend modes so you don't have to: You'll learn what compositing and blending are, and what is actually going on under the hood when you apply blend modes in CSS 🎨 nik.digital/posts/compos...

I was in early access and already found this to be an amazing course. Can't wait to dive in now that it's finished.

Found out today that for several months, I was serving a 2.5MB .png on the landing page for my new course because I forgot to set up the <picture> tag to serve the 34KB .avif instead. 😭 Sorry to all of the mobile users who visited this page in the past!

I've taken many of Josh's courses (including this one!), and they are awesome. On top of being some of the best learning resources out there, they are super fun :D. Check it out if you want to learn about making animations on the web, SVGs, and a lot more. It's on sale for the launch week!

Josh is a gifted teacher. Been reading his articles for a long time. He makes concept easy to digest and the interactive demos are 🤌 This course is no brainer.

Josh's Whimsical Animations course is INCREDIBLE. It contains all of the amazing tricks that he's curated over the years, for you to install onto your own brains. e.g., I went from having no knowledge of the Canvas API to being able to create snazzy animations like these fireworks from scratch.

On @ReactMiamiConf 2026 and people's sentiment on React, AI, React Router, and Remix I don't have a website, read it here: github.com/brookslybran...

I cannot recommend this course enough! Josh is an incredible teacher, and these kinds of interactions are the kind of polish that just makes your websites shine. in particular for me it demystified SVGs and how i’ve got lil spinning and animating things all over

I got to see with my own two eyes: this course is amazing! @joshwcomeau.com does such a thorough job with everything, while still keeping everything FUN!

Josh is one of the best folks out there and this course is a must-buy. In a world where everything is dull and a little bit shit, bringing a bit of whimsy and fun to the web is a much-needed tonic. Get on it m8s!

🎉 Registration is now open for my latest course, Whimsical Animations! This course will teach you everything you need to know to design and build stunning, creative animations and interactions. It’s time to make the web less generic and boring! 😄

I published my first blog post marcebollin.com/feeling-pixels It’s about borrowing properties from the physical world to make digital interactions feel better, and about my experience turning a vintage lamp I really like into a theme toggle for my website

✨ Tomorrow’s the day! After 18+ months of work, Whimsical Animations will be releasing to the public. 😄 I just sent a FAQ about the course to everyone on my newsletter. If you have any questions about it, they might be answered here:

An arcade with niche Asian rhythm games and zero ticket redemption gambling nonsense.

I’m (slowly) going through it as I have time and love it! Not very far through and already learned a number of useful insights and techniques. ❤️ I’m sure the launch will go great! Congrats and thanks for all the hard work on it! 🎉

I haven’t finished yet, but it’s definitely one of the best courses I’ve spent time with. I’ll have to go through it probably another time or two before I fully understand everything. Thanks for sharing it with us!

Whimsical Animations launches on Monday and I’m already getting the pre-launch jitters. 😂 I really think this is my best course. Excited to finally get it published! ✨

After spending quite a bit of time playing with the new and amazing HTML-in-Canvas API, I’ve pulled together all the experiments, code, and examples into one long, comprehensive article. 🔗 On @frontendmasters.com: frontendmasters.com/blog/the-web... * Best viewed in supported browsers.

✨ Working on a blog post about one of my absolute favourite modern CSS features, `animation-timeline`. It includes this nifty demo:

I remember in 2023, the common wisdom on Twitter was that front-end developers would be the first to be replaced by LLMs, that developers would need to swim upstream to the server. That argument always seemed so baffling to me, for all of the reasons Adam lays out here!

A thing I’ve really worried about is that companies no longer see the value of hiring early-career devs; instead of coaching a dozen humans, a senior dev can coach a dozen AI agents, for the same output at a fraction of the cost. IBM has a different perspective: www.ibm.com/think/news/e...

Yep. I used to travel to the US 2-3 times per year, and that’s dropped to 0. Looking forward to coming back if/when a plurality of Americans stop voting for malevolent sociopaths!

As usual with animation, love is in the details! ✨ Squash and stretch is the secret to making UI feel organic rather than mechanical. Josh nails how these tiny shifts create a natural, tactile feel!

✨ Have you ever heard of Disney’s 12 Basic Principles of Animation? The very first rule, “Squash and Stretch”, can make motion feel *way* more satisfying. I just dropped a brand-new blog post that shows how I’ve been using this technique in my own work: www.joshwcomeau.com/animation/sq...

The “State of AI 2026” survey just opened! This is run by the same folks who do the other "State of…" surveys, like JS, CSS, and React. The goal is to understand how web developers are using AI. So, whether you use AI or not, please take a few minutes to fill it out!

Oh I totally missed that @wesbos.com and @tolin.ski dug into my March Mad CSS battle with @cassidoo.co! I believe it was the closest battle in the entire series. www.youtube.com/watch?v=ok2B...

✨ New blog post drops Monday about one of my favourite lil’ animation design techniques. Here’s a little preview. 😄

Woah it's a good thing on the internet!!

I find it so disspiriting. I spent my youth playing Dance Dance Revolution and other rhythm games in arcades. It was healthy and social and fun. Most arcades today are gateway drugs for casinos.

HTML in Canvas API is NUTS

My upcoming animations course has a few open-ended exercises where the goal is to experiment with the APIs we’ve learned about. Some of the things people are coming up with are legitimately beautiful, like this delightful example from @miksevigny.com 💯

And this beautiful game on grief is out now! If you want to support Arab-made work about the Arab world, history, arts, and culture -especially in a time of destruction and erasure towards our people- I cannot recommend this game more. store.steampowered.com/app/3451680/...

The big news in Canada today is that another Conservative MP, Marilyn Gladu, has crossed the floor to join the Liberal party. Most of the comments I’m seeing are about how it’s undemocratic because her constituents voted for a Conservative, not a Liberal. It shouldn’t be allowed. I have thoughts 🧵
