Think front of the front end dev skills don’t matter anymore? Think again.

At #DCAVL25, join What a Front of the Front-End Developer Brings to Your Team and explore why HTML, CSS, and presentational JS expertise are still essential.

Learn how these skills support accessibility, templating, and strong collaboration across teams—especially in Drupal.

Let’s give front of the front end devs the spotlight they deserve.

People print websites, so I wrote an article over on @piccalilli about how to make sure they don’t feel the need to pull out all their hair while printing yours.

Decimate a rainforest, spend a fortune on some new ink cartridges, unjam the mechanism, print off the article, and give it a read.

PiccalilliPrinting the web: making webpages look good on paperDeclan Chidlow takes us on a really interesting tour of the often, under-reported world of print stylesheets, how to use them and also how to debug them.

React-like functional webcomponents, but with vanilla HTML, JS and CSS

Introducing Dim – a new #Framework that brings #ReactJS-like functional #JSX-syntax with #VanillaJS. Check it out here:
🔗 Project: github.com/positive-intentions
🔗 Website: dim.positive-intentions.com

My journey with #WebComponents started with Lit, and while I appreciated its native browser support (less #Tooling!), coming from #ReactJS, the class components felt like a step backward. The #FunctionalProgramming approach in React significantly improved my #DeveloperExperience and debugging flow.

So, I set out to build a thin, functional wrapper around #Lit, and Dim is the result! It's a #ProofOfConcept right now, with "main" #Hooks similar to React, plus some custom ones like useStore for #EncryptionAtRest. (Note: #StateManagement for encryption-at-rest is still unstable and currently uses a hardcoded password while I explore #Passwordless options like #WebAuthn/#Passkeys).

You can dive deeper into the #Documentation and see how it works here:
📚 Dim Docs: positive-intentions.com/docs/c

This #OpenSource project is still in its early stages and very #Unstable, so expect #BreakingChanges. I've already received valuable #Feedback on some functions regarding #Security, and I'm actively investigating those. I'm genuinely open to all feedback as I continue to develop it!

New arrival from Twitter – will probably re-do this #introduction at some point but for now:

I’m into hearing about #ux and #uxdesign, #contentstrategy, #productmanagement and #frontenddev, while my work centres around #creativecampaigns at the moment. My background is in #culturalstudies, #culturaltheory, #philosophy and #sociology.

In my downtime, I’m into #TTRPGs, #D&D, playing #bass, #videogames and #gaming, #gigs, #punk, drinking #coffee, general #nerdshit and walking my #dogs.
