Ist der Jamstack wirklich komplett das Ding? - Gerrit van Aaken

Link to post Ist der Jamstack wirklich komplett das Ding? - Gerrit van Aaken

Danke Gerrit, Du formulierst exakt das, was mir auch seit längerem durch den Kopf geht. Gerade kürzlich ging eine Welle durch meine kleine Webbubble, wo $DieLeute superexcited waren, dass man ein KirbyCMS headless als Inhaltspfleger für ein 11y betreiben kann, und ich verstehe bis heute nicht, warum ich das machen möchte. 🤷🏼‍♂️ PS: Die Diskussion/Kommentare…


I made a thing: corduroy.rocks Setlist Generator

Link to post I made a thing: corduroy.rocks Setlist Generator

Because I was tired of the endless iterations about the set list in case of an upcoming gig of my acoustic band, this week I made a set list generator for myself and my band mates on our web site. The initial song list is rendered from our @getkirby cms, then sortable.js is thrown at…

Link to post 100DaysOfMoreOrLessModernCSS - Manuel Matuzovic

Manuel has completed his self-assigned challenge to post every day for 100 days something about "modern css", and today closes the series with a re-cap. Congrats, and thanks for doing this, Manuel. :-) There is so much I learned, new and old, and damn, look how far the "this is only for styling" thing has…

Ha! This article just put me in a strong XKCD 386 vibe, only with a "right" in there.


In Critical Defense of Frontend Development - Jens Oliver Meiert

Link to post In Critical Defense of Frontend Development - Jens Oliver Meiert

Hear hear! This great article about the craft of Frontend Development by Jens starts with a bang: Frontend development is a field that’s not unfamiliar with being misunderstood, and its value being underestimated or missed Oh yes. At first, FE was seen as some variation of Desktop Publishing. "Real" designers would ponder about the (visual)…


From Gatsby to Eleventy - Amber Wilson

Link to post From Gatsby to Eleventy - Amber Wilson

Amber writes about her switching the "motor" of her blog/website. What I really like is the in-depth comparison and reasoning which kind of shows that the "rule of least power" should also be more often applied not only to the technology in general, but for our choice of tools as well. And I admire her…

Super helpful recipe for setting up a local development environment on macOS for php, node, postcss, kirbycms and tailwind, with homebrew and the command line.


CSS Naked Day 2020

Today my site looks unstyled*. The reason behind the #cssnaked day is: Good sites work, even when the "pretty" visual layer is removed. It is one of the super powers of the web and good html-markup: The elements' browser defaults may not look pretty, but their function is intact. Sadly this functional aspect is often…

Hydration - Jeremy Keith

Link to post Hydration - Jeremy Keith

Jeremy once again about the advantages (and misconceptions) of the Progressive Enhancement approach, 2020 edition, in light of SSR and 'Hydration'. I find (t)his layered approach and the rule of least power so, so much convincing and 'natural' for what the web and browsers are good at. But then again I am old enough to…


Simplicity (II) - Bastian Allgeier

Link to post Simplicity (II) - Bastian Allgeier

Bastian reflects on a topic that's very close to (my) home -- the supposedly unavoidable Tooliganismn that is involved with working on the "modern" web.


Hystery Repeating…

Here's a string of tweets I wrote this morning, a topic that's dear to me, but I never found the time to make a concise blog post out of it. So for now, the raw bites. (Not to diss Flash or the Flash-developers or the creative work that got acomplished back then and helped to…
