You can unfold a menu with controls at the top right.
Ever wanted to get the number of auto-fit columns in CSS?
```
--u: 5em;
grid-template-columns: repeat(auto-fit, minmax(var(--u), 1fr))
```
It's now possible! Using registered #CSS vars, the tan division hack and container query units! Here's a little test on @codepen:

You want a crazy idea? Add an "__outScope" built-in method for classes.
It will run when the scope of the variable that holds the class instance ends.
Imagine the possibilities.

Microsoft is making TypeScript 10x faster with native implementation in Go | Bigger TypeScript projects should now become much more manageable in all code editors
going on #youtube and #twitch, going to be working on some website updates. Come hang out!
Because I saw a @codepen demo creating a hex grid using my well over a decade old nested and reverted transforms technique to get the shape + MQs...
Here's a super simple modern #CSS grid + clip-path + mathematical functions responsive version with no breakpoints https://codepen.io/thebabydino/pen/QwWQqeR

Some grid + shape-outside + container query units #CSS magic + #SVG #filter magic.

Safari supports the `filter()` function, which allows us to apply a filter to just the `border-image-source`. It's not ideal, as we still need to have the image link twice, once in the `src` attribute and once in a custom property set on the same `img`. Oh, well... at least it doesn't require any extra elements, just the `img` suffices.
@codepen demo, but remember, it only works in Safari https://codepen.io/thebabydino/pen/XWxdyro
