Discovered that SVGs have a mix-blend-mode that's widely supported! No more manually mixing colors 😅

Added two-page spreads and gradients. Will try to add some non-rectilinear shapes next.

Grateful to @codrops.bsky.social for giving me the opportunity to share a bit about my work and what drives me.
In this article, I talk about my passion for blending art direction and animation to create interactive experiences.
Thank you for the feature, it means a lot!
We're excited to shine a light on Karim Maaloul today!

He's a true creative force who turns art, design, and code into living, playful experiences. His work reminds us why the web is still a place for wonder!

new game: tic-tac-to3

i've wanted to make a simple game using @desandro.com 's wonderful Zdog library for a long time. it's just 3d tic tac toe, but it's also a bit of a spatial puzzle.

enjoy! tombrinton.com/games/tic-ta...

Happy to have been part of this ☺️

Thank you so much to everyone who has enjoyed the game this past week! We never thought our lil game jam game would take off like this but it's such a treat to see y'all enjoying it.

We're still patching it, so stay tuned for updates.

As an Australian, and huge Oscar fan, damn, boi got game. Game theory reply would be to make a bare single file html site, with something like "i drive cars" win every lighthouse score, and bam, psychological advantage confirmed.
This Lando Norris website is insane

I dove into the code and broke it all down. Some really neat 3D effects along with scrolling and next level animations

I know it will probably reverse eventually, but right now I have 10'ish of my favorite sites zoomed out on the browser 90-70%. Probably my old web roots vs modern standards about button sizes or whatever. Funny im in a boomer-eque moment of EVERYTHING IS TOO BIG. I have iPhone mini still i guess.

Just in general weird state of tech & debugging to me, MSFT do update, breaks localhost, AI has no idea (its new updates how could it) Stack overflow closes post as "not abt software dev" and on we go, with less community and health discourse as we ever did (stackoverflow.com/questions/79...)
Localhost applications failing after installing "2025-10 Cumulative Update for Windows 11 Version 24H2 for x64-based Systems (KB5066835) (26100.6899)"
I just installed the 2025-10 cumulative update for Windows 11 on my laptop and am now getting errors on trying to run applications on localhost. Does anybody else have the same problem and is there...

Some of where my @webdevconf.com slides that were supposed to be delivered via an actual game boy cart got to.

I just didn't factor the size of tiles required for the images vs. the 32k I had on the cart.
