The Creative Independent let's editors highlight certain passages to draw attention. It's a really nicely-scoped annotation feature -- easy to understand what is happening for both the audience and different editors, without going down a rabbit-hole of pull-quote or formatting options. It also opens up the possibility of doing other things with those highlights.

I made a notebook exploring the "sinebow" rainbow a little bit. Still getting my head around color spaces.

I made an example of how to nest CSS grid with fixed headers. There's an absolute positioning trick to make sure the scrollable section takes up the available space without going over. I end up using this pattern with React components a lot.

I'm listing the articles from the NY Post RSS feed for completely legit reasons. Also, I like how the open tabs really show the development process for this one.
We hung some pictures using advice from the picture hanging generator I made.
Experimenting with generated highlighting color schemes. Using chroma.js to set a consistent luminance.
I made a day tracker for when we should take Prince back to the vet (he is already feeling much better). Still working on getting a feel for how to do quick text and calendar visualization for relative time.
