i think i'm waking from my design frenzy. it's been three or so days of non-stop css and feature-creep. everything is way too meticulous, time to get on the creative side again.
...just one more UI/UX feature i swear i can quit whenever i want.

@clseibold i just. holy hell working to make everything compliant on touch screens of various sizes was *horrific*. it's done now, i've fulfilled all my basic design requirements, but i do not want to touch that for a while. · 1 month ago
@five_over_four Yeah, I almost never use relative or fixed positioning in CSS. Margins and padding work just fine, and if you need columns/rows or grids, CSS3 now has flexbox and CSS grids too.
I also use the margin and padding, and a flexbox-like system for the UI of my native applications too, lol. It just makes things much better, especially if you want to animate the interface or if you want to reflow the layout on resizes. · 1 month ago
i have become CSS-enlightened: never use position-arguments. push all divs with margins. i have battled the positioning of a single button for three hours. it is finally over. · 1 month ago
