Issue 4 — Links for Web Standard
10 Things Worth Sharing by Makzan.
Greeting from Macao.
This week I collected some links for developing with web standard. Enjoy :-)
JavaScript module sound complex and different terms make it more confusing. This easy-to-understand beginner guide to JavaScript module helps a lot on how JS works in modules.
Jake on putting CSS Link in body.
Dragula is a good dragging library that “doesn’t depends on bloated frameworks”.
An important thing but web developers often ignores: How to use ARIA effectively with HTML5.
Intercom on Design Principles — Choosing the right patterns.
Work in Progress channel: A behind the scene on discussing how Basecamp looks.
Speaking of UI, here is when and why to use wireframes.
I still believe in Adobe Animate (Formly Flash) still can take a role in current web design, especially with it’s function of HTML5 canvas export with dynamic instances. Here is a compilation of the animation that’s made with Animate.
A Canvas-JS game, both for a quick-fix and for learning.
We all have failed somehow. This is a good place to learn from failures.
Finally, a quote of the week:
You need to take care when using layout systems where content dictates layout (such as tables & flexbox) to avoid content-shifting during load. This isn’t a new problem, but progressive rendering can expose it more frequently. You can hack flexbox to behave, but CSS grid is a much better system for overall page layout (flexbox is still great for smaller components).
