I hope this isn't an inappropriate request here, but I'm having trouble with my simple jQuery script running on my iOS devices (both Chrome and Safari). The script controls the behavior of a navbar (#traveler) that appears when a user begins to scroll up when they are far down the page, but disappears when a user continues to scroll down, or when the original navbar at the top of the page is visible. code:(Also, I can link to my codepen if that's easier.)

Yeah I don't think there's that much value in TypeScript unless you're already proficient in JavaScript, at least right now. It's not like jumping ahead using a framework/library where you would at least get a lot of user-facing functionality immediately out of the box. You'll likely just end up confusing yourself later for potential vanilla JS projects. There might be a time in the next several years where TS is so ubiquitous that it's almost pointless to learn JS without it, but we're not there yet and there's no guarantee we ever will be.

Newf posted:Question: how much like regular HTML elements do these `circle` elements behave? How straightforward is it to, say, have one of these notes enlarge on hover or click, and pop a tooltip that lists the note name? Very similarly, I believe. You should be able to just add a hover state to the circle element with CSS (transform: scale(1.1) or whatever) and id's to each element to target them in JS for the tooltips.

C-Euro posted:Thank you both, can I write all those out as rel="nofollow noreferrer noopener"? You only really need noopener in most use cases IMO. norefferer will hide your site's address from the external site you linked to. I don't *think* it's a security concern unless you want your site to remain private. If you link to another site, you might as well get credit for it. nofollow is used to tell search engines that your link should not be factored into SEO calculations. The short of it is that Google et al give higher scores to sites that are frequently linked to from external sites; nofollow removes your link from consideration. There are a lot of reasons one might wish to do this, but I doubt any that would make sense for your project. Be a good web citizen and leave nofollow off!

Also, yeah, I wouldn't leave big chunks of commented HTML in a template in any professional capacity, but if it's easier for you and you're not putting the site on a web dev portfolio, then you can just leave them in. Sounds a bit like you're digging into git via GitHub, but unless you're really interested in it or taking web dev past a hobby, I don't recommend bothering with it. It's complicated and clunky at first and not at all necessary for the stuff it sounds like you want to do.

Cugel the Clever posted:The MDN link points to this article which suggests otherwise: https://www.jitbit.com/alexblog/256-targetblank---the-most-underestimated-vulnerability-ever/ Yeah I think that second link sort of proves my point. It says either using noopener OR norefferer will prevent the attacks. Google Lighthouse won't flag anchor tags with target blank as long as it has at least one of those. WordPress used to automatically add norefferer to all external links in new tabs and has since switched to just adding noopener. https://www.forbes.com/sites/johnrampton/2017/11/06/the-difference-between-nofollow-and-noreferrer-and-why-it-matters/#2f9eaab21e06 Maybe the guy from your first link is right (caniuse says noopener isn't supported in IE11, for example), but I'm just rolling with what Google and WordPress say. e: scratch all that, Wordpress still adds norefferer after all. Guessing a Google audit doesn't flag a noopener link because it wouldn't present a vulnerability in modern browsers. tl;dr: yeah just add the "norefferer". fsif fucked around with this message at 05:23 on May 6, 2020 |

Quick CSS grid question: I feel like there should be an easy way to do this without using JavaScript, but I haven't been able to crack it. My guess is that it's a limitation in the grid spec, but I want to confirm before I start giving spiels about this taking more dev hours. I have two columns that need to house a variable number of items. It's pretty easy to just have things go from left to right. However, if I want items to first populate the left column and then once they reach the halfway point to begin populating the right column, is there an easy CSS way to do it? Right now, I set `grid-auto-flow:` to `column` and I have to know the number of items ahead of time and manually set the grid-template-rows (e.g., if I have 7 items, I need to set `grid-template-rows:` to `repeat(4, 100px)`). Is there a better way, or am I just going to run some extra JS every time the number of items in my grid changes?

Mr. Angry posted:CSS multi column layout would work if you don't mind different sized items not lining up. You might have to set a few more properties for blocks to play nice with the columns as they're intended for inline content. Thanks, this is a good call. A bit frustrating that I can't keep them on the rows' tracks, but I can probably just make sure the items are all the same height in most use cases.

Violator posted:Any suggestion for a simple animation framework? I don't need anything super complex, just the usual animate in on scroll points, etc. I don't need anything like greensock with crazy complex animations. I'm trying out Tailwind as a CSS framework and would like something a bit more than that offers out of the box. Animating on scroll points tends to be a little trickier than one would think, but AOS is a good, dead simple library if you just want to get something rolling quickly. If that's too basic, I think GreenSock's ScrollTrigger plugin is the gold standard for scroll animations, but yeah, I know you explicitly asked for solutions simpler than gsap.

Yeah, if you're planning on making a career of it, you should probably begin getting comfortable with the actual tooling you'd use on the job. Codepen is better to use a really quick sketch pad for ideas or for easily/visually sharing code snippets. You wouldn't code out a full on production site there. Set up VS Code with the Live Server extension and you'll quickly have something set up that's easier to work with than tabbing through the Codepen views.

Yeah if you're looking to get into UX, you probably don't want to spend *too much* time learning a programming language. It'll help to understand some HTML/CSS/basic basic basic JavaScript to learn how pieces of a project fit together and to establish credibility with the developers, but UX designers ordinarily don't write any code.

Empress Brosephine posted:What should be used instead, span? It should be using semantic elements (e.g., <main>, <article>, <section>, <aside>, even <h1> and <p>). There are appropriate use cases for <div>s, but you should really use them as more of a last resort. And past that, a single piece of content nested in five layers of <div>s is almost definitely a bad practice, heh. Something like this is better for screen readers, web crawlers, etc: pre:<main>
<article>
<h1>Title</h1>

lunar detritus posted:I was looking into this recently and semantic elements are a lie that almost no client uses. They definitely do make things clearer when developing (and parsing if scraping the site) but they are more of a "nice to have" thing. For a basic webpage, as long as you have a hierarchy (h1-h6) and you're following the rules (interactive elements, what elements can be nested inside other) you're good to go. For a webapp it's time to dust off ARIA and pray. That says there's no official spec there, but my sense is that people with screen readers still find semantic tags helpful. Most accessibility-focused developers really pound the table for them, anyway. The reasons not to bother with them feel a bit chicken/egg to me. Like, right, if developers are using them too inconsistently to build much in the way of client features designed around them, discouraging their usage or marking them as a "nice to have" isn't going to help. There will probably always be a fair number of <div>s in any semi-complex website or web app, but I don't think there's much technical overhead in using at least <main>, <nav>, <article>, and <section> tags.

Can't really speak on the email template front, but nah I wouldn't say Bootstrap is recommended much these days. New CSS specs in flexbox and CSS grid have kind of rendered the old way of doing things obsolete. But you know, if it's what you know and you're not planning on doing much more front end-y stuff in the future, it will still work.

I mean I see a lot of jQuery too but I wouldn't say it's generally recommended in 2021. They're both fine if they're what you know (or even just what you like!) and you want to get something up, but each have drawbacks that have caused developers to move away from them.

Empress Brosephine posted:https://campground-search-final.vercel.app/camps?city=all&campfeatures=all®ion=all&camptype=all It looks like you're fetching the data from WordPress with each page request. My guess is you'd be much better suited just running the request at build time. Try replacing getServerSideProps with getStaticProps. You'll need to ensure your app on Vercel runs the build script every time someone makes an update on WordPress, but the page should be much more performant.

If you're using Next.js, you're missing out on one of its killer features by not using it for data fetching: https://nextjs.org/docs/basic-features/data-fetching Using getStaticProps will fetch the necessary data at build time and then just hard code the data into a static page. Might take a tiny bit of elbow grease, but you should be able to just integrate your existing Apollo queries right in the getStaticProps() function.

Because that sort of tool will take our jobs.  But past that, my admittedly limited experience with a designer handing me Webflow assets was that it was bloated code and challenging to optimize or inject our business logic into. It just sort of exports compiled assets, you know? And just really, there have been so many attempts to better democratize the front end dev process with GUIs for decades now that I'm somewhat skeptical that a good one will ever exist. The Wix/Squarespace tools to build a brochure website have obviously developed to such a point that hobbyists are kind of losing their freelance gigs, but we can't even build React frameworks for seasoned developers that aren't filled with warts.

frogbs posted:I guess my thought process is, if starting today Figma could export HTML as clean as your average Bootstrap site or something, would people go directly from Figma to HTML, or would it still be taboo? The answer to the more literal interpretation of the question—where Figma would export markup "as clean as your average Bootstrap site"—is that most developers would still not use it. The average Bootstrap's markup isn't particularly clean and it's a framework that's been out of favor for several years now, heh. But to answer more towards what I assume is the spirit of the question—would developers embrace a GUI that exports well-structured, project-ready markup?—I think the answer is yes, but we're so far from something like that existing that it might as well be science fiction. First, in order to allow a Figma-like tool to export usable markup, you'd need a sizable paradigm shift that would shoulder designers with a greater technical burden. They could no longer treat the tool like an updated Sketch; they wouldn't be able to just draw a square and add some text on top of it. They would need to be the ones designing explicitly with CSS rules like display type, flex/grid alignments, box-sizing, margins/paddings, rules for responsive sizes, etc etc. Some very well-oiled web design teams have strict design systems where they are already accounting for these factors in their drawings, but that would probably not be enough for Figma to generate the appropriate styles on its own. You would need some mechanism for the designer to tell the program that this is in fact a <div> with display: flex, flex-flow: column nowrap, with the :last-child <p> having a margin-bottom of 0. Once all of THAT is taken care of, you're still left with the actual HTML markup. Can the designer specify a <section> tag or an <aside>? Or even that the rounded rectangle they drew is a <button>? What if they want something that visually looks like an <h1> by the design system, but will function semantically as an <h2>? They good with aria- attributes? Even if the designer works within theirselves within this new Figma and explicitly defines CSS rulesets for every shape they draw, can they (or the Figma-like tool itself in the exports) do so in a way that avoids nesting a ton of <div>s unnecessarily? And second, Figma would need to create a way to export the markup and style assets in many different formats. If the tool just exported a bunch of HTML and CSS files, it's not going to work with the project structure of most professional developers in 2021. You'd need to account for a person using SCSS on a WordPress theme, a person using styled-components on a Nuxt site, a person using CSS modules on a Gatsby site, etc. How would you determine what markup is inserted into what template for a WordPress site? Or which pieces of the design constitute which components for React sites?

I work primarily on the front end but my experiences with Docker are mostly bad. It's been a massive resource hog that crashes a lot. A client had a project they pieced together with Lando and it required I maintained an older version of Docker. Said version wasn't compatible with my M1 so I had to use an older computer. I've run into issues with old repos where SCSS and Gulp nonsense have caused some static, but it's generally been easy enough to just switch things around with nvm or MAMP.
