I’ve been excited about Vue.js since Sarah Drasner first showed me
the basics. Since then, we’ve started using it for client work at
OddBird, and I’m constantly impressed by the power and simplicity – so
it was a real honor being invited to speak at the first VueConf US in
New Orleans.

Every time I hear Miriam
talk I learn a ton and laugh a ton.
She’s an amazing speaker…
Watch this talk when it’s published!
—Sarah Drasner, VP of Developer ExperienceatNetlify
I enjoyed the conference as much as I enjoy the framework. I was
particularly impressed with the way core team members talk about
community and future development. Everyone was welcoming, interested in
my contributions, and helpful when I had questions. Several of the core
team members are now helping us build Vue component documentation into
Herman, our style guide generator.
I was also able to attend Sarah’s full-day Vue animation workshop. If
you ever have the chance to learn from Sarah, I highly recommend it. I
was already using the Vue <transition> and <transition-group>built-in functionality on projects, but not to their full extent.
Revisiting an internal OddBird project, still in early development, I
was finally able to create the page transitions that I wanted all along.

All the VueConf talks are available online, and I recommend checking
them out!
Beautiful design mockups can be distracting, giving a false sense of what is complete and what still needs to be done. At OddBird, we find it helpful to remove any ‘premature sheen’ before sharing mockups with clients.

Anchor positioning is close to Baseline. As more people try it out, they are finding areas where it could be improved, and differences between browsers. Let’s take a look at the current state of anchor positioning.
We don’t have to choose between px and rem for spacing

There are many articles and established CSS best-practices that rely on determining the correct or best units to use. Now that comparison functions are well supported in CSS, we don’t have to choose.
