As we’re getting close to rounding out the Beta period of the 2.0 editor, we’re trying to close out any bugs we find or users report quickly. They could be browser-support related, network conditions related, account capability related, or just bugs in how the 2.0 editor and technology behind it works. It’s complicated enough that […]

<script type=”importmap”> Import Maps are pretty great! You get to write import thing from “place”; and then you get to map what you mean by “place”. You could map it to a file in your project somewhere, that way you’ve got one place to update it and update it everywhere that imports it. Or you […]

The 2.0 Editor can support hundreds of files per Pen, not to mention folders mixed in which don’t count toward that total. This can be pretty weighty on the DOM and thus adversely affect performance.

The content at these two URLs is probably the same: The content at these two URLs is probably not: Who cares? Cache cares. Because content with different query params might be different, the various tech that deals with caching […]

Alex and Chris talk about how the 2.0 Editor supports packages from npm. The trick is both simple and complex. The idea is simple. We detect the packages you want to use, list them in an (editable) package.json file, then turn that into a <script type=”importmap”> in your HTML files that import those packages from […]

I’ve always loved a good blog post of someone just saying what they use and do. Keerthana Krishnan has a good one here with Chrome DevTools Features I Use All the Time (and Why You Should Too). Cheeky parentheticals, Keerthana. Like, sure, I’ll read a blog post about new Chrome DevTools features, but I’m more […]

Stephen & Chris look at the UI of the 2.0 Editor and show all the control you have over what you’re looking at. Way more control than the Classic editor! We share some of the thinking behind it. Don’t miss the Omnibar! Time Jumps Links

Perfectionist? So how can you tell when your perfectionist traits, which in many ways have aided your creative prowess, have gone too far? If you’re prone to obsession, especially when it comes to work, there’s always a way to justify why it’s worth the agony. But, as Siqi, renald and Pablo attest, getting bogged down […]
