It’s not always the big features that make our everyday lives easier; sometimes, it’s those ease-of-life features that truly enhance our projects. In this article, I want to highlight two such features: @starting-style and transition-behavior — two properties that are absolutely welcome additions to your everyday work with CSS animations.

The year was 2018, and we were still trying to cope with IE11 and had to find some ways for certain effects. Things that we take for granted with CSS nowadays were not possible and one of the solutions to create awesome effects on the web was using SVG Filters. Fast forward to 2025, SVG filters are still awesome, but I use them less. In this article, I wanted to revisit them, with some easy-to-use effects we can use today.

Who publishes an article on the last day of the year? This guy! I felt like I should honor the tradition of at least recapping the past year by writing one final article in 2024. So this time, there will be no tutorials or hidden code gems. I already created my holiday CSS greeting card. This is just a little personal reflection and future plans for 2025.

Every year, I create a little demo right before the holidays as a CSS greeting card. This year is no different. To celebrate the end of the year and all those new amazing features that came into CSS, I decided to let myself go a little with new CSS techniques. A sort of recap of things I learned and put them in one little CodePen. This time, I’m combining scroll-driven animations, anchoring, and @property in CSS.

How can I animate from 0 to auto? I have a fixed width and want it to transition to the width set by its children. How do I do that? These CSS questions have been asked many times on platforms such as Stackoverflow, and I’ve certainly done some searching for those exact questions. I can’t count the number of max-width hacks or JavaScript solutions I’ve used to transition from 0 to auto. No more! I’m done, and for now, I’m going full progressive enhancement. In this article, I’d like to cover some of the benefits you get from adding the new interpolate-size property in your CSS Reset.

As a GDE, I recently traveled to the Isle of Man. It’s probably not the first place you would think of when talking about conferences, meetups, and developer communities in general. You’ll probably think about motor races in narrow streets and beautiful hills. This event was once again an eye-opener for me to realize we should probably try to do more for smaller community groups whether that is government sponsorships, or just doing that - maybe literally - extra mile as a speaker.

Oh, how I wanted to write this title for some time! I have Googled these questions before when working with sticky positioning and scroll snapping. It looks like we are finally getting an answer to these questions in the form of CSS state queries and I have been eagerly waiting to play around with this since CSS Day 2023. In this article, I want to show a few first impressions and demos I created with state queries in CSS and Scroll Snap events in JavaScript.

The CSS Working Group (CSSWG) has recently introduced changes to the anchor positioning spec in CSS. I've focused on anchoring in previous articles and to maintain accuracy, I will be updating an older article (just this once). This article will highlight the specific name changes and their corresponding Chrome release dates.

Have you ever wondered what happened after CSS3? The W3C CSS-Next community group is actively searching for better approaches for how we describe the evolution of CSS over time and identify feature sets as effectively as we did with CSS3 way back in 2009 — and you can help.
