Single div CSS Tesla Cybertruck
Of course it had to be done: What I found most peculiar is that only the front lights are generated content, all the rest is gradients. Only detail that’s missing are the smashed windows 😜 Oh, Here’s another nice version (no single div though): See the Pen Pure CSS CYBRTRK 🚙 by Jhey (@jh3y) on …
Change the marker of a list to any character with list-style-type: <string>
Since CSS Level 2, CSS list-style-type has supported keywords like disc or decimal to define the appearance of the list item marker.

Pure CSS Scroll Shadows (Vertical + Horizontal)
A long time ago (2012!), Lea Verou shared a way on how to add scrolling shadows to containers that needs scrolling.

Ship legacy JavaScript and CSS files in a Webpack Project with webpack-merge-and-include-globally
One of the projects that I’m working on is quite reliant on jQuery and Bootstrap.

A modern CSS reset
Andy Bell: In this modern era of web development, we don’t really need a heavy-handed reset, or even a reset at all, because CSS browser compatibility issues are much less likely than they were in the old IE 6 days. That era was when resets such as normalize.css came about and saved us all heaps …
Flexbox Holy Albatross with CSS Grid
In succession to The Flebox Holy Albatross, Jonathan Snook wondered if he could recreate it using CSS Grid. ℹ️ To recap, with the Flexbox Holy Albatros a layout goes from either all items stacked next to each other (e.g. all horizontal) to all items stack on top of each other (e.g. all vertical): There’s no …
