there will never be enough of color pickers/generators.

made this a while ago: akovantsev.github.io/colorpicker

(function() {

    var colors = [];

    var pad = ' '.repeat(5);

    for (i=0;i<20;i++) {

        var r = Math.min(i*10+250, 255);

        var g = Math.min(i*10+140, 255);

        var b = Math.min(i*20+0, 155);

        var a = Math.min(i*0.01+1.0, 1.0);

        var rgba = 'rgba('+[r,g,b,a]+')';

        colors.push(rgba);

        console.log('%c'+pad+rgba+pad, 'font-size:20px; background-color:'+rgba)

    };

    return colors;

})();

As I just two days ago published an article about prototyping native CSS mixins, and also independently I was playing with some colors in CSS, I couldn't stop myself from trying making a mixin implementation for applying splash colors!

Oleksandr Kryvonos 2024-12-26 12:50:38

Oleksandr Kryvonos 2024-12-26 12:51:00

Bonus episode alert!

FUTURE OF CODING: INTERVIEW

(featuring @Philippa Markovics)

This is the first FUTURE OF CODING interview since January 2022.

It's an experimental pilot so it's for patrons only this time. Thank you to everyone who supports the podcast and I hope you enjoy this behind-the-scenes look!

I tried out various different editing techniques to give them a whirrrrrrr before the Real Interviews. Let me know what you think!!!!!

I really enjoyed Steve Krouse's wholesome interviews back in the day so I hope I can do them justice with a 2024/2025 version. I promise this first one is (at the very least) not boring. Any other qualities are up to you to determine.

Of course, many thanks to Philippa for helping me out and being my first victim (and we'll maybe see her again soon).
