    A CSS Tip I learnt a long time ago was to always design mobile first.
    If you look at your plain HTML in mobile mode, it usually is perfectly designed moulded for a mobile setting. As you grow bigger, it’s easier to adjust all the content using “min-width” media query.
    The mobile first is helpful in most cases when designing.

    • @elgatonegro1703

      Good tip- plus if you're doing a professional project usually you have some kind of analytics to see how many users access the site/use the app on mobile vs desktop, etc, so you can kind of decide what should be the 'main' look and what should be a screen-adjusted layout of that.
      Also fwiw for anyone this might help, and based on a thing that I definitely didn't recently have to deal with- don't procrastinate your media queries to doing them all at once after you style your pages/components; if you can, try to do all or as much of you can of them for each component as you develop its styles. Sometimes you get lucky and can just set a container width to like 50/60/70vw and good ol margin 0 auto, but sometimes you can have something like a thing that I definitely didn't recently have to deal with where you're like 'wtf subheader why do you keep escaping through the container's border on xl screens??' Plus if resize media queries are a thing your app needs, they're a lot easier to manage one page/component/feature at a time.
      ETA: I once did something I was really pleased with where I looped through list items to grab their ID then assign that value to the content property of a before pseudoelement as a way to number things and style the number, and now I feel like a tit after having seen that counter thing.

    Grid and flexbox were lifesaver for me. I used to do layouts with float and clear properties.
    When I learnt grid and flexbox, one fine evening I created new git branch of the project, removed all 'float' and 'clear' from entire source code. As expected, layouts were broken. Then I implemented grid and flexbox. It was time consuming task but it was fun.
    It was 2 years back and I haven't wrote 'float' in any css file ever since.

    Greatt video as always! Here's my favourite CSS Pro Tip: There's this obscure CSS property called scroll-padding-top. When you have a sticky / fixed header, and you click an anchor link, it gets hidden under the sticky header. To avoid this annoying bug, just give your body element scroll-padding-top equal to the header height. Along with scroll-behaviour: smooth, this will make it so that when you click an anchor link, it'll scroll to it, such that it starts right beneath the header instead of hidden under it, which is the intended behaviour!

  • @BestNoobHello
    @BestNoobHello 2 роки тому +278

    A minor mistake at 2:45 that might get some beginners confused is that the CSS shown on the screen does not put the element (the poop icon in this case) at the bottom right of the container (i.e. the first absolutely or relatively positioned parent element, so not necessary its direct parent). It puts the top-left corner of the element at the center of the container, so now the element's position within the container is slightly off and not exactly at the center. That's why we need the specify the `transform: translate(-50%, -50%);` property which moves the element upwards by 50% of its height, along the Y-axis and leftwards by 50% of its width, along the X-axis, thus properly puts it right at the center of the container.

    I think over all my favourite CSS protip is; although, maybe less of a CSS tip and more of an organizational tip in general; how important it is to keep your DOM clean. When I first started, I would put divs everywhere with tons of nesting. When in reality, you can usually get away with having one div to one box on your page. Very little wrappers are needed if you take a second to think about what each element in your HTML is doing

    The protip: you can build awesome responsive layout with (almost) one line of CSS. Use
    {
    display: grid
    grid-template-columns: repeat(auto-fit, minmax(150px, 1fr))
    }
    and see how elements in your grid shrink and grow depending on the parent grid size.
    You can also add *grid-gap* to make it even better. It's great for something like i.e placing video thumbnails like UA-cam does.

    Another nifty thing to do - in my opinion at least - is to set te font-size of everything to 62.5% (by use of the HTML selector). This way you'll have a much easier time calculating sizes with the rem-suffix.
    In a nutshell, setting font-size to 62.5% causes 1 rem to be equal to 10 px

    Pro Tips:
    1. Stack box-shadows with varying parameters and opacity to get a more detailed and polished look.
    2. Create a master file that you can use between projects to give you simple classes like "img-border-radius", "btn-border-radius". "primary-color", "primary-light", "error-color" - these keep stylesheet calls from CSS frameworks from bloating your site.
    2A. Use SASS/SCSS and create variables to use inside the classes, so you only have to change 20 lines of code instead of 500, but you still get a custom look per site

    Great content as always. The part where you explain centering with absolute, I believe top: 50% is 50% of the parent, same with the left. Therefore, the child is at the center of its parent. However, the child is centered by its top left corner so we need to transform the child -50% (which is now 50% of the child width/height) to correctly center it by its center.

      I think there is talks in the works to have this replaced soon though, for everyone that keeps learning different colour models. LCH is similar to HSL but its big advantage is the lightness of colours is perceived equally between different hues.

    --text-color: hsl(var(--H1), var(--S1), var(--L1));

    Cool video, learned a lot of new stuff during these 10 minutes!
    Though you have an error around 2:43. When centering divs the old way (by absolute positioning and translation), you don't move the item to the bottom right corner first, but instead you move it to the center actually. But it is going to be slightly off, because now the top left corner of the child element is in the center, not its actual center, so that is why you need the translate property.
    One takeaway here is that the first two 50% values are referring to the parent container's size, but the translate property uses the child element's size for the 50% calculations.
    But I guess you know this, just made a mistake in this video.
