Ooh, Airbnb Engineering released a very nice page that’s using Scroll-Driven Animations.

Here’s me doing an impromptu check of it using a Chrome DevTools extension I built to help you debug these.

This is the one I get the most random emails about where people are trying out the template for their own project. ❤️ Shout out to Rachel Andrew for the excellent guides on CSS grid and print spreadsheets that helped me build this.

Soon you'll no longer have to rearchitect your app to an SPA as Cross-Document View Transitions work with MPAs!

To be included in Chrome 127 (mid July)

Feeling intimidated by the Chrome DevTools Performance Panel and INP?

This is a fantastic video from Brendan Kenny with step by step instructions on dig into responsiveness issues. Guaranteed you'll learn a lot about how to debug these - I did!

Under-appreciated leaderboard in my opinion - function calling (aka tool usage) is one of the most interesting applications of LLMs, plus it should be independent of how much 'knowledge' is baked into the models

🫨TIL! You can inspect prerendered pages in DevTools with that dropdown. Barry Pollard
