    Love when I go into a car dealership and get to read all about the different cars. Specially when the cars aren’t actually there. In fact there’s not even a picture of a single car. Yep that’s my jam.

    There are some good descriptions and hints, but what the site really needs is examples. Just looking at the code doesn't help me much. The descriptions are also mostly so short, that they could just as well be tooltips on the homepage. The whole premise of the page is a collection of "web tricks worth remembering" and I can't fathom what bash (e.g. `du -hd 1 . | sort -hr`) is doing there.

    "... that matters" is the new emdash

    What does native mean in this context?

    This pushed me to finally act on it

    They're not really 'tricks' as much of mentions of assorted features of HTML and CSS. You get to discover a similar assortment of things (with much more immediately available detail and many examples) just clicking around MDN.

    Neat! I like these opinionated lists, especially when it’s easy to browse and cherry-pick useful stuff. It’d be very good to mention how compatible the features are, though. Especially with newer CSS features, it’s easy to overestimate how ready they are for all browsers.For that, there could just be links to the related MDN and/or caniuse.com pages.

    Best resource for proper HTML+CSS development is Jason Knight AKA deathshadow's CUTCODEDOWN (cutcodedown.com at Web archive) and his articles at Medium and CodePen (user Jason Knight).

    I'm always googling how to center with CSS.. bookmarked.

    > Each post-it pairs one useful platform feature with a small exampleI can’t find a single example; each post-it just shows some code but not the result of it.

    Nice tips there ! :)

    Super neat! Rare to see a genuinly actually useful opinionated list like this.

    without demos this is mostly useless i think
