🎉 Introducing my upcoming third course, Whimsical Animations! This course will teach you how to build top-tier animations and interactions using a variety of techniques. ✨ You can join the waitlist on the course’s brand-new site, which is the most ridiculous thing I’ve built in quite some time:

color: rebeccablack; a valid CSS color, only on Friday

fun little #CSS kaleidoscope gradient trick ⤷ nerdy.dev/css-kaleidos...

Do you have a favorite CSS one-liner?

Every time someone publishes an article about CSS colors mentioning only rgb(), hex notation, and hsl(), an angel loses its wings. Two angels if the article only mentions the comma-notation for rgb() and hsl(). Three angels if the article only mentions the 6-chars hex notation, rgba(), and hsla().

CSS @​​function + CSS if() = 🤯 I combined them to build a custom --light-dark() that behaves just like the built-in light-dark() but that is not limited to only <color> values. 🔗 Blog Post + Demo: www.bram.us/2025/02/18/c... 👨‍🔬 Chrome Canary + Experimental Web Platform Features

Take this `<dialog>` too classic; cart in the top right, pushes the whole page left to reveal your cart sidenav nerdy.dev/have-a-dialog #CSS

Take my <dialog> this one slides out from the side with an elegant inset, and also offers a mouse effect to show that it supports light-dismiss nerdy.dev/have-a-dialog

What CSS features would you most like to see improvements in design tooling for? (Figma, Canva, Adobe et al) What are layout & typography features in design tools the web should have better support for?

Current Status: CSS Custom Functions + Nested Style Queries. DEMO: codepen.io/bramus/pen/x... (Also: eagerly awaiting inline if() – but that’s not ready for prime time yet)

Happy Valentines Day ya’ll! ❤️ Traditionally, I always publish a new article about something I love. This year: an experimental feature that I’m really looking forward to. It’s about scroll–markers and the possibility create carousels with just CSS. I also added a cool no-js slick-slider. 🚀

anyone made a scroll snap demo where mario jumps and punches a gold coin box for each swipe? or even just jumps over a turtle that flys by under his feat. seems like it'd be pretty easy and would look awesome lol

this has been deployed to production. nerdy.dev please hammer on it, let me know if anything is slow!
