What I like about Stu's stab at this is that it's an ongoing journey rather than a wholesale switch. In fact, he's out with a new post that pokes specifically at compiling multiple CSS files into a single file. Splitting and organizing styles into separate files is definitely the reason I continue to Sass-ify my work. I love being able to find exactly what I need in a specific file and updating it without having to dig through a monolith of style rules.

Seems like a pretty straightforward thing to answer, right? But like Donnie says, this takes some strategy. Like, say spacing is high on your priority list. Are you going to use margin? padding? Perhaps you're leaning into layout and go with gap as part of a flexbox direction... but then you're committing to display as one of your options. That can quickly eat up your choices!

If you don't know, the light-dark() function takes two color arguments: one for light mode and one for dark mode. Hence, the name light-dark(). It toggles between the two light and dark values based on a user's preferences. Sara Joy has a wonderful article where you can get a much more detailed explanation. The key thing is that the function requires you to use the color-scheme property to activate those two color modes: :root { color-scheme: light dark; } .element { color: light-dark(brown, black); }

Flip Clock is a jQuery plugin for creating a clock & countdown timer that displays information in a digital format on a split flap display. The clock & countdown timer can be fully customized via CSS and full-featured developer API. How to use it: 1. Include required FlipClock CSS in the head section of your page. <link rel="stylesheet" href="/path/to/compiled/flipclock.css" /> 2. Create a container for the clock. <div class="clock"></div> 3. Include jQuery library and the jQuery FlipClock plugin at the bottom of the page. <script src="/path/to/cdn/jquery.min.js"></script> <script src="/path/to/compiled/flipclock.min.js"></script>

If you want to avoid using a pseudo-element or, even worse, children just for decorative purposes, then radial-gradient() seems to be the best solution. Especially in the case where you might need a bunch of such discs, more than the two pseudos available on an element. However, if we do something like this: Where r is the gradient disc radius, then we get jaggies, a step-like effect along the radial-gradient() disc, whereas one created with a pseudo-element has smooth-looking edges!

Centering in CSS is no longer an impossible task. Multiple methods such as flexbox and grid make it easy to achieve both vertical and horizontal centering.

Responsive design is one of the fundamentals you'll be asked about. Building a responsive website means your layout, images, and typography adapt gracefully to any device or screen size.

CSS tricks feel like discovering secret synergies between features, akin to chiseling a sculpture from marble or uncovering fossils, where unexpected pairings achieve the impossible.

Google's guidelines recommend making CSS files crawlable. While CSS has implications for SEO, crawlers typically parse HTML for text content and ignore class names.

KelpUI is being designed to leverage modern CSS features and Web Components, while emphasizing utility, customizability, and simplicity in naming and specificity.

I've shared Josh Comeau links many times here and his ability to explain technical matter with incredibly simple and well-built demos is easily the best in the industry.

The issue lies in how relative paths work in HTML. When CSS files are linked using a relative path, they are referenced based on the location of the HTML document in the directory structure. In your case, if the webpage is located in the 'Folder' directory, the browser looks for the CSS files in 'http://Project/Folder/CSS/' but failing due to incorrect pathing leads to a 404 error.

The CSS cursor property is pivotal for user experience, providing visual cues to users about interactive elements, thereby enhancing site intuitiveness and interactivity.
