Hello Reader,

A short newsletter this week as I’ve been spending almost all my time working on finishing my course Beyond CSS.

The end is in sight, and it’s been head down for me trying to get across the finish line.

About two more weeks to go and I think that final module will be wrapping up.

And if you're interested, the top tier is on sale, but that sale will end once it's finished!

🙋‍♂️ What I’ve been up to this week

Outside of working on my course, I did also put out some videos 🙂.

npm for absolute beginners

​

While I plan to stick with CSS as the primary focus of my channel, sometimes for larger builds or sites, I use Vite, Astro, or something else that requires jumping into the command line.

Rather than explaining it every time, since a large part of my audience are beginners, I figured it would be a good idea to have a “go watch this video if you’ve never used it before” type thing in place!

Creating a blog with a headless CMS

​

Speaking of needing the command line, this almost 3-hour long video needed me to jump in there a couple of times!

In this one I look at how we can use Astro along with a headless CMS to create a blog based on a Frontend Mentor design, and it was pretty fun to put together!

Dynamically number elements with a few lines of CSS

​

After a little break from Shorts, I’m back with this fun one looking at CSS counters.

I used them in my long video above, and figured a lot of people would miss it, so I wanted to make a quick video on them.

There’s a lot more than you can do with counters, so I’m planning a long-form video on them in a few weeks from now as well.

🔗 Other awesome stuff around from the web

I haven’t had the time to do much looking at other things this week, but if you are after a nice weekly dose of CSS goodness, sign up for the CSS Weekly newsletter!

Zoran shares tons of great CSS-related content there, and just in case you didn’t know, he has a CSS Weekly YouTube channel too.

🏁 </newsletter>

Have a fantastic week!
Kevin
