Web development Blog

2024 was our first year with three kids, and what a year that was.

No, that's not a typo. I'm writing my year-in-review post for 2023 in 2025. It's not like 2023 was terrible, but it was intense, and I needed some distance before I could write about it, and then I just forgot to do it. Before I can write about 2024, I have to do 2023 first. So, here we go:

Recently, I started a new project. I react to the accessibility of more or less randomly picked websites.

Friends of mine organise the seventh international TYPO3Camp, which takes place in Vienna on October 11th - 13th, 2024. I'm there to give a keynote talk and a workshop.

Once again, I’ve teamed up with my friends at Smashing Magazine 😻 to share with you everything I know about web accessibility testing! In this smashing workshop we’ll talk about automatic and manual testing, screen reader basics, Single Page Applications, Dev Tools, and more.

CSS animations can be composited in three ways: replace, add, and accumulate. The animation-composition property allows you to switch between them.

You can use the of S syntax in the :nth-child() pseudo-class to filter elements before the arguments in :nth-child() apply.

The light-dark() color function allows you to define two values for a color property. The property uses the first value when the color scheme is light or unknown and the second when it's dark.

People often ask me for recommendations for front-end development conferences. Picking my Top 3 would be challenging, but I know that beyond tellerrand in Germany is one of them.

Following last year, I created a CSS wishlist for 2024.
