Susy 1.0 has officially launched! Thanks to everyone who contributed.
This release is loaded with new features, but don’t let that fool you. Susy has become shockingly simple to use. See the website for more details and demonstrations.
The interface and syntax have been simplified so that the language is consistent and easy to understand. We cleaned up the output, taking into account Compass browser-support settings, and giving you more control over exactly how your grids are built. Then we added a load of responsive tools and optional new settings to make Susy as absolutely flexible as possible.
Happy coding!
Display color gamut ranges and more
OddContrast, OddBird’s color format converter and contrast checker, gets new features – including the ability to swap background and foreground colors, and display color gamut ranges on the color sliders. Contrast ratios now incorporate foreground color alpha values.
Start using author-defined functions
There’s been a lot of progress in the CSS Working Group lately, but I want to draw your attention to a prototype that landed in Chromium ‘Canary’ (v136+) browsers with the experimental platform features flag enabled. Author-defined Functions are coming to CSS, and you can start to experiment with them…
There are several proposals, but one major road block
We’re trying to make progress on shorthand syntax for CSS logical properties. But the path forward depends on where we hope to be a decade from now.
