Offsites and Gem Getters
|
|
|
|
Hey friends,
|
|
|
|
This week is a different sort of week! Normally all remote(ish), Viget's entire
|
|
dev team is in-person this week for a few days (hence the later-than-normal
|
|
newsletter 😅).
|
|
|
|
It's very easy as a remote worker to feel isolated — remote communication tends
|
|
to be much more focused, leaving less space for the type of connection-building
|
|
edges and spaces of an in-person conversation.
|
|
|
|
Hence Viget's [4]practice of TTT's and Offsites. I'm thankful for this — it's
|
|
not a simple or cheap thing to organize! But it absolutely strengthens team
|
|
connection and unity!

Interesting Web Bits 🍿
|
|
|
|
Web Stuff
|
|
|
|
• Chris Coyier walks us through the [5]power of shape().
|
|
• Scott Jehl gives us a nice [6]self-destructing fade-in technique. Which is
|
|
fantastic to ensure elements that fade in WILL be readable.
|
|
• Daria Nevezhyna shows us some [7]more complex use cases for Rive.
|
|
• Looking for a new colorscheme? If you're not already using [8]one of the
|
|
best ones, may I interest you in some [9]Root Loops? (Also, checkout
|
|
'expert mode') 🥣
|
|
• While we're talking about colorshemes, Nikita Prokopov has some [10]
|
|
opinions on syntax highlighting. I think I've had bright colors for so long
|
|
I don't see the issue in his 'problematic' examples... 🤷
|
|
• Watch this [11]voxel creature mutation/evolution simulation. My money's on
|
|
the aggressive cube-folk!
|
|
• Evan Hahn shares some of his [12]custom scripts.
|
|
|
|
Other Stuff
|
|
|
|
• I guess they're putting [13]Steve Jobs on a coin? 🤷
|
|
|
|
Watch and Play
|
|
|
|
• 📺 A tiny peek into an [14]iconic NYC rubber stamp shop.
|
|
• 🎮 [15]Gem Getter Pro is a lovingly-made roll-and-write with STELLAR web
|
|
implementation. I've been hooked on this recently! 💎⛏️
