CSSDay NL 2024

If you’ve watched my talk, you know that I couldn’t agree more to @piccalilli here:

“The thing to remember about learning HTML and CSS is that they are web standards and will long outlive Figma, Adobe XD and Sketch. At worst, learning to code will help you communicate with developers much better. At best, your design skills will be much more rounded and relevant in an ever-changing and expanding industry.”

👏👏👏

I mentioned Atmos.style in my talk briefly. Currently, I’m trying it out again to create the palette for a redesign I'm working on. And it is really, really useful and convenient so far!

1) Import a set of base colors from your first layouts.
2) Use the shade generator to, well, … generate shades
3) Check color contrast and adjust the number of swatches
4) Export as CSS custom properties in Oklch and sRGB/HEX

🪄🙌

Inspired by @pixelambacht’s great talk at , I tried activating all the beautiful “swoopies” for the redesign of my personal site using font-feature-settings: "cswh".

And clearly, @koeberlin’s NaN Tresor does not disappoint. 😍 Now, all I need is to have the guts to go with that quirky design… 😅
