CSS properties come in two excellent flavors – longhand properties have a direct impact on the element, while shorthand properties take a much more convoluted path. There’s a lot going on when we use a shorthand property, with hidden surprises, and reasons we might use one or the other.
So, you have a site that you want to build or redesign. Maybe you have a few core colors in mind, and you’re thinking about how to quickly implement a theme based on those colors. Baseline features can help!

CSS anchor positioning isn’t baseline yet, and there’s good reason for that. You can use it, but it comes with some caveats. James, Stacy, and Miriam cover new resources to make anchor positioning easier, and work through some demos to help you understand how anchor positioning works. We also look…
Other developers build exactly what you say,
or they don’t understand,
and develop the wrong thing.
OddBird always thinks about the project goals.
I defer to the team expertise now,
which makes a better result.
As core contributors to CSS, Sass, and Django,
we write the books,
help create the languages,
and build the OSS projects
millions of other developers rely on.
Bringing that expertise to your custom web projects,
we focus on accessibility, performance,
resilient design systems, and well-tested code.
OddBird was the wise investment.
We could have selected a cheaper avenue for this work –
we would have paid for it manifold in the long run.
—Furman Brown, FounderatTegy
Since OddBird thinks about handoff from the beginning,
maintenance has been super easy.
For example, 100% unit test coverage was a given.
I never had to ask for it.
I co-founded OddBird with my brothers in 2008
as a full-stack, boutique agency
to provide custom web application design & development,
along with refactors for integrated
design systems, accessibility, performance,
and long-term sustainability.
Since then OddBird has become an industry leader –
from our work on Django, Sass, and Susy,
to the CSS Working Group, Mozilla Developer Channel, Object Oriented UX,
and in-depth conference talks on front-end architecture, workflow,
component libraries, testing, and documentation.
We’d love to help you thoughtfully serve people with technology.
