Retiring my own little CSS framework

I am winding down my Teutonic CSS framework. Here is why, some history on the project and a rant. — I created Teutonic CSS back in 2017 as a successor for the styles that are (still) powering all our company (fortrabbit) websites. We never put it in action for reasons that are beyond the scope of this article. Teutonic CSS is a CSS framework with a unique look. Visually, it…

On upcoming PHP deadlines for PHP 5.6 and PHP 7.0

The end is near! At least for PHP 5.6 and PHP 7.0. Why update? Why is there so much old PHP out there? How to establish an up-to-date mindset. This is a long read, including backgrounds, philosophical questions and trivia on the topic. Do not expect code examples. Why upgrade to PHP 7.2 anyway? It’s about…

How to get dark mode working with CSS

One is based on CSS Grid and the other is based on Flexbox. They have overlapping features, yet they are different. And, I believe, it makes…

My 2¢ on scoping in CSS

C in CSS stands for Cascading. While sometimes it is desired to share certain style attributes across elements, this implicit inheritance can become a nightmare. CSS beginners fight with this. And it still bothers me after years of CSS authoring. Is there a master-recipe? Let’s explore: Problems Style interference happens on…

Yet another CSS framework

I am currently writing a CSS framework. Am I crazy? Sanity check! Missing with others There are at least mature 100+ CSS frameworks out there. Let’s have a look what’s missing, perhaps: 1st Gen: Bootstrap & Foundation I loved Bootstrap, I discovered LESS and a whole lot more with it.
