Hello and welcome to the first RWD Weekly edition of 2018!
Only a couple more days and I'll be touching down in Germany for the Beyond Tellerrand Munich. I've just signed up to a workshop with Melanie Richards from Microsoft and will be talking all about CSS Grid..... can't wait to share what I learn with you next week. | | Headlines I signed this open letter about Google AMP. It's not a letter calling for the end of AMP, but instead, it is asking that Google treats AMP in a way that allows the Web to remain true to itself.
If you've been working on Flexbox or Grid and keep having to go back to check how you align the content then this is a great article that covers everything you need to know... it even has a cheatsheet to boot!

This is the number one complaint that they hear about AMP, so it's great that they're working towards a solution. At the moment, however, that solution is based on the Web Packaging standard which isn't supported by any browsers (yet).
A great example of how the simplest of changes can have some monumental impacts upon your customers.
In the excitement and anticipation of Santa coming to visit I missed the Safari Technology Preview #46 release, and along with it, one of the more exciting bits of news I've heard for a while. Service Workers are now supported in the Safari Technology Preview, which in turn means that it will be shipping to regular Safari, which should then ensure it ships to iOS mobile Safari. Offline Web Apps on the iPhone here we come!
The experts have spoken and the results are in. You should read the article, but a lot of it is around HTTP/2 (which requires HTTPS, also mentioned a lot) and improving image compression (or using new and exciting image types).
Tutorials I often recommend moving to HTTPS because of all the benefits you get on top of being secure, like HTTP/2 and Service Workers for instance. But what _is_ HTTPS really? Could you explain it to someone if they asked you the question? Like really explain it? Take 5 minutes and you'll be an expert!
Twenty-one different tips on UI details that you can use to set your designs apart from the competition. The best bit is it is written in CodePen so all the examples can be forked (or stolen, as the rest of the world would call it ;)

Finally - Code Pen of the Week
This responsive house code pen was in the top 10 most liked code pen for 2017, I wish it was this easy to increase our house size.
That's all for this week! Like I said at the beginning, I'm off to Munich next week and will be brimming with inspiration for you next week.
If you've written anything recently send me a link and let me know so that I can help spread your great work with the rest of the community. Until next week, stay responsive!
Cheers,
Justin. | | | |
