Hi, #Today I decided to try to #getfedihired — I've got many years of experience with web development, programming and production (#HTML, #CSS, #Javascript), I can make myself useful in anything on the open-source side of back end, i.e. the #Perl, #Python, #PHP, #MySQL, #Linux kind of area.

I live in #Sydney Australia and would be happy to work in-office, remote or hybrid.

Let me know of any opportunities, or pass this on to anyone else who might know of something? Thanks.

New Kitten release

• Now leaves <style> tags within <template> tags alone when collating and normalising the CSS on a page so as not to interfere with scoped styles in declarative shadow DOM.

(Kitten’s Streaming HTML workflow¹ – which uses htmx and WebSockets under the hood – combined with built-in support for slots, etc., in Kitten components² means the use of declarative shadow DOM is mostly useful if you want scoped styles. Ideally, of course, use classes to scope styles to your components and be specific in your CSS selectors in general so as not to pollute elements in your components. Although that’s a bit like saying you should floss everyday. Yeah, we all know we should…) :)

Update: All that said, I’d highly recommend you don’t use Shadow DOM in your Kitten apps. For one thing, htmx’s WebSocket extension doesn’t seem to play well with it. And for another, you really don’t need it and definitely not just to get scoped CSS.

Enjoy!

Hey #webdev bubble - can any of y'all recommend resources to learn about accessibility?

I'm aware of the WCAG guidelines as the "golden standard", but I'm looking for something more bite sized / approachable than 75 pages of raw paragraphs and rules

Boosts welcome!

Ana Rodrigues: In defense of unpolished personal websites. “My imperfect and unpolished code on my personal website isn’t the full reflection on my technical abilities or knowledge of web development standards. It’s a constant draft where my handwriting is legible and where I want optimization takes a backseat. It’s where I use the little free time I have to actually write on it and […]

This is wild. I began designing and building websites in 1995. From today, in 2025, I’ve been designing and writing code for most of the internet’s existence.
