7 Game-Changing Web UI Features You Can Start Using Today (opens on the source site)
I was watching this video from the Google IO on all the new web UI features that are coming to the web platform and I was blown away by how many of these features are already available in modern browsers. In this article, I want to highlight 7 of these features that I think are game-changing and that you can start using today (of course, in some of the modern browsers). CSS Text Box CSS Scrollspy Contrast Color The hidey bar using @scroll-state query Gap Decorations The light-dark() function The linear() function CSS Text Box A new property called text-box is coming to the web platforms that…

Inside Today’s SurveyMonkey: Built to know what’s true for your business, when it matters (opens on the source site)
Earlier this week, we introduced Today’s SurveyMonkey, the biggest product evolution in our company’s history. I want to take you inside the platform and show you what we’ve built and why we built it. Something fundamental has changed in how businesses operate. That is what makes surveys so valuable. They give us the ability to directly ask the people we care about the most what they think, what they want, and why – all at scale. We’re building SurveyMonkey to help you always know what’s specifically true for your business, at the speed you need to make better decisions. What you can do with…
Meet Today’s SurveyMonkey: AI-powered for a world where humans still matter (opens on the source site)
Humans still matter. Listen to them. This belief has guided SurveyMonkey since we launched in 1999, when we democratized human feedback. A self-serve platform with an approachable wide-eyed monkey logo, it replaced expensive paper surveys and telephone polls. For the first time, teams of any size could get feedback and better understand their key constituents at scale. Today, that belief is more urgent than ever. There is a growing expectation among company leaders that AI can solve their hardest problems. Teams are asking it what products to build, what advertising will work, how to increase…
How To Use Standard HTML Video & Audio Lazy-Loading on the Web Today (opens on the source site)
HTML video and audio lazy loading is now a web standard and quickly gaining support in all major browsers. Given Squarespace’s role in proposing and implementing it, we’re very excited to see how developers use it on the web. Let’s cover some best practices for using video and audio lazy loading in any website, as well as some gotchas to avoid.
Squarespace & Web Standards: How We Helped Bring HTML Video & Audio Lazy Loading to Today’s Browsers (opens on the source site)
At Squarespace, many of our core products are built on web standards, and our engineers are constantly pushing the boundaries of the web’s capabilities. Occasionally, those boundaries reveal a limitation: an opportunity for the web’s native capabilities to grow. This post is the story of how we found such an opportunity to work with the standards community to improve the web in a way that we – and everyone who uses it – can benefit.
Today I Learned – in 2024 and 2025 (opens on the source site)
A Discord server I use has a channel called #til, standing for Today I Learned. It’s a place to post interesting or surprising things you recently learned. I took my posts to that channel from the last couple of years, tidied them up and have listed them below. Hopefully you’ll find something interesting there: TIL […]

Using Native JavaScript Modules in Production Today (opens on the source site)
Two years ago I wrote about a technique—now commonly referred to as the module/nomodule pattern—that allows you to write ES2015+ JavaScript and then use bundlers and transpilers to generate two versions of your codebase, one with modern syntax (loaded via <script type="module">) and one with ES5 syntax (loaded via <script nomodule>). The technique allows you to ship significantly less code to module-supporting browsers, and it’s now supported by most web frameworks and CLIs. But back then, even with the ability to deploy modern JavaScript in production, and even though most browsers supported…
Deploying ES2015+ Code in Production Today (opens on the source site)
Most web developers I talk to these days love writing JavaScript with all the newest language features—async/await, classes, arrow functions, etc. However, despite the fact that all modern browsers can run ES2015+ code and natively support the features I just mentioned, most developers still transpile their code to ES5 and bundle it with polyfills to accommodate the small percentage of users still on older browsers. This kinda sucks. In an ideal world, we wouldn’t be shipping unnecessary code. With new JavaScript and DOM APIs, we can conditionally load polyfills because we can feature detect…
CSS3 colors, today (MediaCampAthens session) (opens on the source site)
Yesterday, I had a session at MediaCampAthens (a BarCamp-style event), regarding CSS3 colors. If you’ve followed my earlier posts tagged with “colors”, my presentation was mostly a sum-up of these. It was my first presentation ever, actually, the first time I talked to an audience for more than 1 minute :P . This caused some goofs: When introducing myself, I said completely different things than I intended to and ended up sounding like an arrogant moron :P I tried not to look at the audience too much, in order to avoid sounding nervous, and this caused me to completely ignore 2 questions (as…
Bulletproof, cross-browser RGBA backgrounds, today (opens on the source site)
UPDATE: New version First of all, happy Valentine’s day for yersterday. :) This is the second part of my “Using CSS3 today” series. This article discusses current RGBA browser support and ways to use RGBA backgrounds in non-supporting browsers. Bonus gift: A PHP script of mine that creates fallback 1-pixel images on the fly that allow you to easily utilize RGBA backgrounds in any browser that can support png transparency. In addition, the images created are forced to be cached by the client and they are saved on the server’s hard drive for higher performance. Browsers that currently support…
CSS3 border-radius, today (opens on the source site)
This is the first one from a series of articles I’m going to write about using CSS3 properties or values today. I’ll cover everything I have found out while using them, including various browser quirks and bugs I know of or have personally filed regarding them. In this part I’ll discuss ways to create rounded corners without images and if possible without JavaScript in the most cross-browser fashion. I will not cover irregular curves in this article, since I’ve yet to find any person who actually needed them, even once, including myself and browser support for them is far worse. Caution: The…
