As I’ve been rebuilding my social network from the ground up recently, I’ve been extremely mindful of the fact that 60% of my users are experiencing the site on a mobile device, specifically phones. Because of this, I’ve been attempting to craft a user interface that functions nearly identical on

I don’t claim to know all the things, and this post is definitely something that I’m pretty sure nearly everybody on the planet knew about but me. The problem I was attempting to solve recently is that I had a list and the left alignment of the multiple lined list

Every once in a while you are faced with a scenario where the best course of action is to slap a <style /> block in the middle of your code. For us, it was that time we wanted to set an arbitrary width (selected by the user) on a component,
