It woke up my wife, as I tried it on my phone when the stupid elevator music played it out loud :/ In all seriousness, I hope this will not become another 250kb JS framework we use in our projects..

I've been developing some games and frontend on my free time for fun. I've been using typescript and Pixi.js but other than that nothing else. As a backend engineer, I've always thought about learning a frontend framework but I've never actually had a strong need of it. So question if you're a frontend engineer: Should I? I never felt the need of a framework despite I render quite a bit of dom elements. Do I have a n…
If you want to get a job as a frontend engineer, you should learn React because it's a tick-box on a lot of job postings these days. If you just want to make personal projects, it depends a lot on what kinds of projects you want to make. React won't really help you with the sort of 2D-game-type programming you're using Pixi.js for. On the other hand, if you think the Reddit redesign is really good and you want to mak…
Conversely, if I think the reddit redesign is horrible, I guess I should stay well away? ;)

#47"back to top" is just such an epitome of how out of touch some modern design is. We had buttons on our keyboards that did this for half a century now. As for phones it should be up to the web-browser to implement it, nobody wants to use your idea of how scrolling should work. My machine already knows how I want to browse my content, don't pretend you know better.

I really hate them on iOS, because the system comes with back-to-top functionality so all these buttons are doing are looking ugly and covering part of the page. And don’t even get me started on when AMP breaks scrolling…
For anyone else who was wondering, you can tap the top of the address bar on iOS Safari. I think it has to be expanded first. I didn’t know that and hope it helps.
