Nice, reminds me of this (very old) compatibility matrix I made about how browsers deal with missing images codepen.io/bartveneman/... for this blog post that touches on the same subject www.veneman.dev/2013-10-an-i...
Andy taking it to another level is 💯

I *hate* doing this publicly, but did the other applicants get a reply at all? 😅 I applied pretty much immediately but never had a confirmation and nudging didn't help either. Pretty bummed about this, but I'll keep watching for the next opportunity.

Thanks, I just realised that I forgot to implement the nested.layers in Wallace's layers viz. www.projectwallace.com/css-layers-v...
Will fix soon 👀

None of that, at least not visible in counterscale. I'm starting to suspect it might have been a bot, but at least the user agents in that time period look different enough to not immediately point to that. Strange.

I've looked throught Counterscale's source code and I feel I could solve some of the issues I've noted myself.

Quite saddening that the most visited page by far is the CSS Code Quality page. It's the page I put the least amount of effort in of all features. I never actually use it.
Maybe I should do a complete redesign to at least make it interesting for myself.

🔸 Misconfigured the `siteId: "your-unique-site-id"` because I thought it'd need some Cloudflare ID. Turns out you can make up any ID you like and it's used as the site name in the dashboard 😅

I was actually aware of Counterscale (I had starred the repo a while ago) and this episode re-sparked my interest enough to make me install it on @projectwallace.com yesterday.
Very quick and pleasant onboarding, excellent product. Thank you so much!

🔸 Disabling analytics for local dev, preview environments and Playwright tests took me a little while to finetune
🔸 Toggling lines on/off in the chart would be nice, I don't care much for bounce rate
🔸 Ability to export data would be great because retention is 'only' 90 days

I'm not a regular Cloudflare user, so setting up took me a little but overall the experience was easy enough. It's been running for a day now so here's my thoughts so far:
🔸 Feature parity with other platforms is good enough
🔸 Events would be great but could be achieved with another site-id

I'm sorry, the lack of contrast doesn't allow me to see it within 10 seconds 💩👨🦯

Went for the radio group. It's pretty close to how GitHub shows their massive amount of themes and it's quite fun to build. Powered by a popover; need to finish it off by positioning it with anchor positioning.
Building those little previews was fun!

I want that but how do you visualize it in your UI? A select? Radiogroup? Buttons galore?

And borders work well for print stylesheets, too

They're not the same btw, `:root` has a higher specificity.

It's projectwallace.com / @projectwallace.com, my side project that I've been working on for longer than I want to admit.

Shoutout to my super power providers:
🎭 @stefanjudis.com for *everything* I know about @playwright.dev
🖥️ @polypane.app for making accessibility testing easy and providing polypane.app/color-contrast to let me come up with better design token primitives

To the point where I'm literally copying pieces of code from Wallace directly in our company code base.
