I'm a self-taught front-end developer and Google
Developer Expert located in Belgium with a passion for
UX and Design. After more than a decade working in tech,
I decided to start a little blog for documenting my
findings about HTML, CSS and JS with an eye on
accessibility and UX.
During the day, you can find me working at iO on a variety of projects. There are a lot of environments
I'm working in, the majority of them being Twig or React.
But my real niche will always be semantics and CSS, especially
now, with the ever fast updates in browser support. It's
a great time to be a front-end developer.
Elevate your CSS debugging skills with these Chrome DevTools tricks in 2024
From layers and specificity to nesting, from HD color to (scroll) animations. If there is one thing that makes me keep using Chrome as my default browser while developing, it has to be the DevTools and the information we can find about them. As we’re slowly entering the last part of the year, I thought a cool roundup of new CSS debugging tools would be a great article. Let’s dive into it.
Animations and transitions from and to display none with @starting-style
One of the frustrating things when animating elements was not being able to transition to and from display none. Related to that, it also wasn’t an easy feat to use transitions for elements entering the DOM. In Chrome 117 we have the release of @starting-style, which will make animating or transitioning those cases a lot more convenient.
One of my hobbies is nature/landscape
photography. When my beautiful baby girl was
born, there wasn't much time to travel the world
and so I started to shoot landscapes in Belgium.
It gave me a sense that nature's beauty can be
closer than you might think.
Most of the images are near my hometown Deinze.
A small city famous for its cycling near the Lys
river. I added some photos on this website as
sort of a "hobby corner". I will update them
from time to time, but you can follow my
Instagram for latest images.
