📚 Learning
3 useful CSS hacks
Another great video from Kevin Powell, I really liked the first hack (using border-radius: 100vmax), I have never seen it before and it's very clever! The other tips are just as good, definitely a great watch!
Grid for layout, Flexbox for components
This one is an old one from Shadeed but it's still very relevant. The article details a very good mental framework on when and how to use CSS Grid and Flexbox for coding layouts.
How to hide the scrollbar with Tailwind CSS
Written by me! I had this issue recently with a client project and realized the solution had a few quirks you need to keep in mind, so I decided to document it in this blog post. I hope you find it useful!
💅 Showcase
Lee Robinson – Developer, writer, creator.
Another personal site! This one is from Lee Robinson, a talented developer with a very good eye for design and it shows all over his portfolio! From the micro-interactions animations to the minimal but beautiful layout, the whole site is just nice to look at. I also particularly loved his Dashboard page, very clever!
🎁 Resource
Dynamowaves - SVG wave templates
CSS Weekly recently did a video about this one and I just had to share it! The package helps you create fancy SVG wave shapes, which can make your design really unique. The best part is that, depending on how you configure it, the shapes can change on every page load, very unique!

Become a Pro at building components & layouts with CSS Flexbox and Grid with the Complete Guide to CSS Flex and Grid ebook by Shruti Balasa. I actually read this book and LOVED IT. I have been using flexbox and CSS grid for years and I still learned quite a few things from the book.

PixelSnap 2 is the fastest tool for measuring anything on your screen. I use it as part of my front-end development workflow to make sure I'm translating screens as close as possible to the design.
I recently finished the "Ten++ Ways to Make Money as a Developer" ebook from Florian Pop and I really liked it. Since I'm a freelancer I already knew some of the methods he mentioned but others really blew my mind, for example, I didn't know streaming could be so profitable 🤯!
