Infinite Scroll checklist
*If in doubt, always prefer pagination.
- With infinite scroll, always integrate a footer reveal.
- Consider separating “old” and “new” items visually.
- Provide an option to continue browsing later.
- Consider using “load more” + infinite scroll together.
- Consider using pagination + infinite scroll together.
- Change the URL as new items are loaded in and expose it to users.
- Allow users to jump to any page with a pagination drop-down.
- Consider using scrollbar range intervals.
- Consider allowing users to pin or bookmark items/areas of interest.
- Make sure accessibility and performance are major considerations in the implementation.

A way to generate a gradient color depending of a main color. Applied with https://www.opensourcecolorsystem.design/system, it can be awesome :)
Ready to use 3D background effects
The design of this personal website is punky and original :)
I totally agree :)
Stylus on the Chrome Web Store has more than half a million users. Stylish has over three million. That’s a lot of people modifying the web to get what they want.
After looking at the available options I definitely prefer number 2 in the list above: the name of the language as text in the language itself, possibly followed by the name of the language in the language of the current page.
After thinking about it, this is what is the most explicit, even if it is not shiny 👍
Do not use flags to represent languages. Explications are provided in the article.
TL;DR; Use hsl isntead of RGB to create a gradient. This will avoid a grey zone. But using hsl is not available in CSS for now, so we can use a linear-gradient from a multiple of colors instead. Each color have to be similar to its neighbors... and it works !

Why even use shadows ?
Shadows imply elevation, and bigger shadows imply more elevation. If we use shadows strategically, we can create the illusion of depth, as if different elements on the page are floating above the background at different levels.
Here's the first trick for cohesive shadows: every shadow on the page should share the same ratio. [...] To ensure consistency, each shadow should use the same ratio between these horizontal and vertical offsets.
By matching the hue and lowering the saturation/lightness, we can create an authentic shadow [same color style] that doesn't have that “washed out” grey quality.
Ideas are:
- Creating a cohesive environment by coordinating our shadows.
- Using layering to create more-realistic shadows.
- Tweaking the colors to prevent “washed-out” gray shadows.
I will think about it the next time I will have an interface to build.
