Managing Flow and Rhythm with CSS Custom Properties

I’ll share a post that I wrote last year for the fabulous, 24 Ways, this week.

If there was one thing that I use relentlessly, it’s my little .flow util class or <stack-l>as it’s known on Every Layout.

Fancy permalink

Andy Barefoot - personal site

⚠️ Motion warning ⚠️

When I first loaded this site, I just said “holy shit”. I can’t even fathom how Andy landed on this look and feel, but it’s truly stunning—even on mobile.

It’s nice to see weird websites again!!


Zef’s website

⚠️ Motion warning ⚠️

I love this. The colours, the layout, the typography and most of all, the attention to detail. Lovely work by Zef.

Animation permalink

Breathing - variable font animation

⚠️ Motion warning ⚠️

Here’s friend of the newsletter, Michelle again with some stunning work. This is super calming.

Layout permalink

Grid Experiment No. 8

Everything about this is stunning. Get into the CSS panel and learn some stuff because Jules is incredibly talented.

Fun permalink

CSS is fine

Hell yeh it is, Jonathan. Hell yeh it is.

This brings back a hell of a lot of school nostalgia. It’s super fun but also super smart work by Katherine.
