Good Vibes Only is owned by me, Jessica, and I work as a freelance front-end developer. I write about things I’ve experimented with and thoughts I like to share, focusing on creativity and CSS.
I have a love for CSS because it’s what makes the web look interesting and fun!
Once again, I had the honor of speaking at FrontendForum, this time with a beautiful view at Knightec Group. Big thanks for having me! Even though things didn’t go perfectly with the demo (you know that feeling), I had so much fun and truly enjoyed every moment.
CSS is really, really great but it’s lacking things like, console.log(). And sometimes I truly miss it. CSS tends to give us the silent treatment when something goes wrong. So helpful, right?
But we actually do have something incredibly useful, browser DevTools.
When working with Grid, Subgrid or Flexbox DevTools is like a helping hand. You can hover over the layout badges to see the overlay, you probably already do that. But did you know that if you click the badge instead of hovering, the overlay becomes persistent?
That means you can resize your window and watch the layout shift in real time as the viewport changes. It’s such a simple trick but honestly, a game changer.
