I had some time on my hands thanks to the layoff, so I rebuilt my personal site 🧔🏻‍♂️ dan.isnot.cool The first blog post is the article I wrote as part of my Chromatic interview process, where I build a little app to inventory all my books: 📚 dan.isnot.cool/blog/card-cata…


I’m using Tailwind for the 1st time on a client project and I can definitely see its usefulness & why people love it so much. I also know for sure it’s not for me on big, custom projects. After so much CSS over 15+ years I'm a faster thinker with a single class and a stylesheet.


I really enjoy writing CSS. Carry on.


How’ve you been filling your time since getting laid off, Dan? The usual way: spending a few hours in the middle of the night making silly shit on the internet because I bought a domain name a decade ago and never did anything with it. Totally normal. 240dollarsworthofpudding.com


Thing I didn't know until now: CSS :has selector doesn't work with attribute selectors. (At least, I think that’s true.)

Dipping my feet back into WordPress to help out a site I built a while ago and ran into an oddity. If anyone has any ideas, I'm all ears: wordpress.stackexchange.com/questions/4221…

It was really great working with @kaelig, @iKristy, and the Netlify folks on this and rad to see the work they're doing! Check it out 👇🤓

This year, @Netlify used Storybook + @chromaui to completely rebrand their app UI in just 6 weeks 🤯 Here's how they did it 👉 🎨 Updating colorschemes 🎞️ Automated tests across 2,000+ stories 🤝 @figma integration 🙌 Non-technical UI review storybook.js.org/blog/netlify-r…



Using the Visual Test addon the last month has been wonderful. Getting realtime (or near realtime) regression tests right inside Storybook while working locally is such a great workflow. I’m obviously biased (I work at Chromatic), but I 🧡 this addon and bet you will too. 🤓 👇

This past month, we shared a sneak peek into @StorybookJS's upcoming Visual Test addon. It brings Chromatic's visual testing workflow into your Storybook interface! Read on to learn how the addon works and how you can sign up for the private beta 👉 chromatic.com/blog/sep-updat…

It’s been really exciting watching this project come to life and being able to play with early versions. Generating visual diffs on-demand inside Storybook is such a productivity boost. Get in on it, folks! 👇🤓

Today, we're entering the private alpha for our Visual Tests addon! It lets you test your stories across all browsers and viewports in a single click. Here's how it works and how you can get involved 🧵🤝

I know we’ve had this for years in a bunch of places, but being able to select some text then paste a URL and have the selected text turn into a link is a solid bit of cheap thrill in a world teetering on collapse. High five to the folks who first made that happen!

🌎 Safari and Edge testing is live! You can now run Chromatic’s visual & interaction tests in all 4 major browsers at the same time. Pricing also improved: you get more value at the same base price. Wait, but why? 🧵

Not a single quote from the dude in the article. I assume because every question they asked him or his family was answered with a window-shaking “FUCK HER!” and they couldn’t run any of it.
