    you know, this is why I wanted to just put a CSS grid tutorial into the docs
  • s
    in my current profession (tech writing) we call that "doc-ing around UX issues" 😛
  • s
    (I'm specifically talking about the grid line-based parametrization, not the verbosity, which indeed is a hard problem)
  • g
    lg←2 ↑3
  • s
    lg? :S
  • g
    large screen
  • s
    it may be better to just use S/M/L than 2-letter abbreviations tbh
  • g
    not a serious proposal btw
  • g
    i agree, but for some reason tailwind doesn't
  • g
    odd since they abbreviate margin to m
  • s
    I could see something using unicode characters as shortcuts/aliases for longer ascii-based names
  • s
    after all, it is said that code is typically read much more often than it is written
  • g
    oh btw @User 
    margin-block-start margin-block-end padding-block-start padding-block-end
    are coming in the next release (which will probably be 1.0!)
  • g
    and inline ones as well
  • m
    i have no idea what is going on in this channel
  • g
    we are bikeshedding syntax for CSS Grid utility classes
  • m
    syntax bikeshidding, fify
  • m
    syntax is very, very important
  • m
    this is why you are in charge of missing css, deniz

    @mysterious-toddler-20573 your navbar is available for testing at https://deploy-preview-24--missing-style.netlify.app/docs/
  • g
    one problem I noticed: making the navbar 
    position:sticky
    makes it impossible for the search results to pop out of it
  • g
    @swift-translator-13366 any reason why you don't have the missing.css role?
  • s
    I didn't feel I deserved it as I'm not really using the lib, just lurking around and interested in the topic 😅
  • s
    But I guess that may be enough, I'll set it up 🙂
  • g
    the roles are for users, so I can @ you for announcements
  • g
    wrt this. i could put the search inside a dialog to avoid all this pain
  • g
    and the search would just be a button
  • g
    tfw i spent days scratching my head over a search index when i was actually discarding the search results by using 
    Array.prototype.slice()
    wrong

    @User progress report:
  • e
    Sorry for a late replay... Tailwind looks like a great option for front-end devs to use instead of pure CSS. I'm not a front-end dev and my knowledge of CSS is "just enough." I want a little handholding, some opinions, and nice behavior around accessibility, but light enough that I don't feel bad adding an extra CSS file of my own for some custom layouts.
