@stefanjudis.comFor the folks that don't like CSP: there's a new header in town to block/allow connections.
@stefanjudis.comI've never had to build sites in languages that are read right-to-left.
If you do, here's how to mix left-to-right and right-to-left text with `dir=auto`, `bdi`, and the `U+200E` / `U+200F` Unicode characters.
@stefanjudis.comBe honest, have you ever used the `touch-action` CSS property? If not, here's what it's about. 👇
@stefanjudis.comI just redeployed my site because Vale reminded me that I'm using a relic of the past. Today I learned that `initial-scale` isn't needed to prevent iOS from doing weird zoom things anymore.
@stefanjudis.comIt's been a pain that we couldn't pass values into SVGs since I started doing webdev. But there's some progress with SVG link params. Here's a practical example.
@stefanjudis.comDid you ever wonder why you need to await twice to get a `fetch` response body?
Today I learned that the first `await` waits for the response headers. The second one then waits for the body.
You learn something new every day.

@stefanjudis.com@stefanjudis.com❤️ Thanks for the shoutout and reading along. :)
@stefanjudis.comReposted by @stefanjudis.comAfter a short break, the new Web Weekly is about to hit all inboxes. 🫣
This time, it includes `text-box` going Baseline, the two phases of `fetch`, linked parameters in SVG, and the new `Connection-Allowlist` header.
Enjoy!
@ericportis.comReposted by @stefanjudis.comAfter a decade at Cloudinary, I am looking work. I'm a web developer who's done a lot of devrel, too. I'm good at the front of the front end, great at browsers and standards and deeply understanding and explaining technical topics, and the stem of my T-shaped skills is: "images, on the internet".
@stefanjudis.comYeah, that's pretty wild... 🫣

@stefanjudis.comThanks. 🥰 Yeah, it's kinda wild for how long this project is going...
@stefanjudis.comI took a short break, but now it's Web Weekly time again! 🥂
I'm just about to write edition 200. 😱

@matuzo.atReposted by @stefanjudis.comFriends, it's that time of the year: Once again, I'm asking you to help me create another amazing HTMHell Advent Calendar by writing about HTML.
The CFP is open until October 3!
@stefanjudis.comThe HTML `head` is often forgotten and barely touched. Manuel has some good stuff to include in his 2026 boilerplate.
@bell.bzReposted by @stefanjudis.comI run @piccalil.li and having publications like CSS-Tricks around is really important. We all help and challenge each other and the result is a better ecosystem for everyone else.
That's the whole point!
I really hope this situation gets resolved, or CSS-Tricks gets a new owner that cares.
