Link List

Wel­come to my link library. These are not links to con­tent I have cre­at­ed unless you see that men­tioned in the link’s descrip­tion. These are links I found inter­est­ing enough to want to keep track of. If you read Craft Link List, the Craft CMS newslet­ter I used to write, this page is a replace­ment of sorts for that exer­cise. Enough talk. Let’s hit the links.

Fit-to-Width Text with scroll-driven animations

What if I will tell you how we could solve fit-to-width text with pure CSS with­out any hard­cod­ed para­me­ters? Curi­ous­ly, scroll-dri­ven ani­ma­tions will allow us to do just that! Join me as I con­tin­ue explor­ing the exper­i­men­tal imple­men­ta­tions of the lat­est specs.

Getting started with View Transitions on multi-page apps | daverupert.com

Spurred by last week’s ShopTalk I rolled out View Tran­si­tions here on my sta­t­ic Jekyll site. I hadn’t real­ized View Tran­si­tions for mul­ti-page apps (MPAs) and sta­t­ic sites are ready for test­ing behind a flag in Chrome 113 . View Tran­si­tions for MPAs are a fea­ture that’s high on my CSS wish­list, so I got to it. It took less than an hour to do, requires zero JavaScript, and two lines of CSS. I’m pleased with the results.
