Can I X, is a question about the readiness/compliance of a certain thing at time = now. Can I use CSS version X was the iconic early meme.

For a generalized example, if you wanted to know if the basketball courts were ready for you to “ball it up” in a certain city, it’d be caniball.com

If you want to know if you can use a certain frontend technology, the idea is like: canwefigma?

It’s a glorified feature matrix, and usually a project of a passionate community. I approve, even if some of the memes are a bit dank.

https://caniuse.com/ is a popular tool to check what web features are working across different browsers - "can you use this and assume that it will work for others".

The article uses custom css @properties which are awesome and have 88% browser support [1].

One thing to watch out for is differences in how browsers handle setting the fallback initial-value. Chrome will use initial-value if CSS variable is undefined OR set to an invalid value. Firefox will only use initial-value if the variable is undefined. For most projects, this won't be an issue, but for a recent project, I ended up needing to use javascript to set default values in Firefox to iron out the inconsistency between browser implementations.

You forgot to mention (Web)Workers. This is explicit creation, management, and communication with additional threads within JavaScript. What's more, they've been around in JavaScript longer than the V8 engine has even existed!

Do you happen to know where can I check out the cutoff version for each browser? https://caniuse.com/?search=wasm doesn't have it (or other things like WasmGC for that matter)

Flexbox Froggy

This started improving for me recently when I spent more time really learning flexbox and flexgrid. They are part of CSS so no installs needed. It’s a different way of thinking but I’m finally good enough with flexbox that I can tell when I need it and make productive use of it. Knowing these patterns makes a difference for me, since now I can assemble the blocks better than before when I’d just try mostly random css without any guiding principles.

Flexbox froggy helped a lot with some practical experience that translated fairly well to my regular work.

There are other games like this that I haven’t gotten to yet, including one for flexgrid. Once I clear all the levels in flexbox froggy I’m going to try the flexgrid game.

Then after that I’m going to spend time with bootstrap and tailwind since the last time I really used them was back in my more junior days when I barely knew anything at all about css.

Flexbox Froggy is an excellent resource for interactive learning.
