Code Rush Jay George, Rob de Kort

Jack McDade joins us to talk about his brand new Radical Design Course. The three of us are all going to Flat Camp EU and it is just around the corner. Statamic will get a major version update soon and it contains some pretty exciting new features and enhancements. Lastly, there’s a very generous discount code for Radical Design in this episode as well, but you’ll need to listen to find it.

After a two month recording pause including an in person meetup, we have a lot to go over. Like clients sliding into your DMS, the new Cap unit, Dune 2, and the use and misuse of uppercase text. We also cover Herd Pro, the switch property, overflow:clip, form-sizing, CSS Generators, typescale.com, a warning about evergreen browsers, kanban boards in Apple Reminders, Eagle app and Screen Studio.

Three minutes of Indiana Jones chat followed by em's vs ch units—we know how to bring in the New Year! Webkit has introduced alt text for pseudo-elements. The summary/details element may soon be animatable. We record on Blue Monday which cleary increases Rob his grumpiness towards the endless stream of AI content. Jay documents his journey into the world of mechanical keyboards. We debate CSS grid strategy. Sketch/Figma debate. We ponder the maybe little-known art of repeating gradients in CSS.

In our very first Christmas episode, Jay makes fun of Dutch again when English clearly lacks a very important word; Rob shares updates regarding his password manager changes and doesn't like big blobs of light. Tailwind gets :has(), Figma get a cool $1B, and something's up with Chrome dev relations. We chat about the most recent news in CSS, and Jay shares his experiences with GitHub Copilot.

With Jay back in London, we return to remote recording again. We talk about abandoned side projects before Rob finally strikes back regarding pronunciation. We also cover Dutch politics (sorry), trivia, Google’s Topics API, and a lot of CSS news, including scroll snapping v2. Rob shares his experience of moving from 1Password to iCloud Keychain, and to Jay’s delight, Firefox has a Compatibility panel.

Fireworks and popping beers. In this very first in-person recording, Rob gets flagged for proper pronunciation again. Jay has gathered more coffee knowledge. Rob doesn't spit out his wine when tasting. Last but not least, from the comfort of a fire stove, we laugh over vicar jokes and cover Laravel Precognition, Canvas, PostCSS, (scroll-driven) animations in various guises, Passkeys and 1Password.
