bricss:
For quite a while I have been looking for a way to “mirror” my CSS media queries in JavaScript, but without duplicating the actual queries. Of course, you can use matchMedia to evaluate a media query in JavaScript, but then you have to maintain your breakpoints in two places – not ideal.

For the most part, when we look at a Photoshop document that is meant to be converted to a website, we try to see code wherever possible. It’s like that moment in the Matrix where Neo looks around at what he once saw as the normal world and suddenly sees the code behind it. Web designers don’t see layers and layer effects, we see divs and CSS properties.
Given that this is the case, the majority...

Aside from looking into bottlenecks on Javascript/DOM side, I decided to step into the CSS land. I wanted to see the kind of impact these nice UI elements have on performance. The old version of the app — the one without all the fluff — was much snappier, even though the JS logic behind it hasn’t changed all that drastically. I could see by scrolling and animations that things are just not as...

Have you ever heard the phrase “Content is King”? Being a Web developer, and therefore having a job that’s often linked to content creation, it’s likely you have. It’s a fairly overused but true statement about what draws visitors to a site.
From a Web developer’s perspective, however, some may argue that speed is king. More and more, I’m starting to favour that stance. In recent years many...
