Font Playground - Play with variable fonts!

Paul Kinlan

Font Playground is built for three groups of audiences. The first group of audience is typographers and designers, who would like to play with fonts that are built with the latest font technologies, such as variable font. It is a playground to fully explore what these new font technologies can offer and how they can be beneficial to your creative workflow. The second group of audience is me, as a Type Tool’s UI/UX designer.

did.txt file - Patrick

Paul Kinlan

Patrick viết về Did.txt Time flies by when you’re learning how to code. Its super important to take a second every once in a while to simple write down what you did during the past mental sprint. Writing down what you learned solidifies the knowledge. Đọc toàn bộ bài đăng. Đây không phải là một triệu dặm so với những gì chúng ta làm trong nội bộ, nơi chúng tôi có một khái niệm về ‘đoạn’.

Hyperlinking Beyond the Web - CSS-Tricks

Paul Kinlan

Atishay Jain trên CSS Tricks viết về một khu vực gần gũi với trái tim tôi, liên kết: Hyperlinks are the oldest and the most popular feature of the web. The word hypertext (which is the ht in http/s) means text having hyperlinks. The ability to link to other people’s hypertext made the web, a web — a set of connected pages. This fundamental feature has made the web a very powerful platform and it is obvious that the world of apps needs this feature.

Google Doesn't Have the Guts to Make Page Speed Actually Matter

Paul Kinlan

Dan từ Redfin có một bài đăng tuyệt vời về việc ưu tiên tốc độ web: JavaScript Is the Web’s CO2 As a web developer, I find that most problems can be solved with just a little more JavaScript. Without someone or something to force the industry to cut back, web developers will continue to make web sites that only load “fast enough” via wifi on a fast laptop.

TRACK | A WebGL Experiment by Little Workshop

Paul Kinlan

This project is a musical experience built with WebGL and WebVR. Inspired by the music track, we created an ever-changing environment composed of various geometrical shapes. These were generated procedurally in Houdini and exported to Three.js. All visual elements are randomized differently on each viewing. Đọc toàn bộ bài đăng.

Introduction to Feature Policy

Paul Kinlan

Eric Bidelman về cập nhật web của nhà phát triển Google, viết: Building for the web is a rocky adventure. It’s hard enough to build a top-notch web app that nails performance and uses all the latest best practices. It’s even harder to keep that experience great over time. As your project evolves, developers come on board, new features land, and the codebase grows. That Great Experience ™ you once achieved may begin to deteriorate and UX starts to suffer!

Understanding Storage Quota | Workbox

Paul Kinlan

Jeff Posnick viết, wrt để Workbox A common source of unexpectedly high quota usage is due to runtime caching of opaque responses, which is to say, cross-origin responses to requests made without CORS enabled. Browsers automatically inflate the quota impact of those opaque responses as a security consideration. In Chrome, for instance, even an opaque response of a few kilobytes will end up contributing around 7 megabytes towards your quota usage.

Emscripten's compiled Web Assembly, used minimally

Paul Kinlan

Sam Thorogood trên Dev.to viết, Why did I write this post? Emscripten is a wonderful tool, but it has a long history (for asm.js), and isn’t perfect. I think it errs too much on the side of “magic”, and many posts rave about how it’s so easy to EMASM or use binding-fu, but this all comes at a cost, and can introduce huge amounts of inadvertent overhead—think copying huge memory buffers around because we’re trying to make them immutable or easily exposed.

Designing with the Gestalt principles

Paul Kinlan

Mustafa cho Google Chrome, trên Dev-Channel viết, The Gestalt principles are a series of laws that are used to explain why human beings naturally find organized patterns in objects they see around them. The goal with the principles was to explain why we group objects in some ways but not others. There are many different principles, but here I am going to look at the ones that effect grouping, these are; proximity, similarity, common fate, continuity, closure, and prägnanz.
