A nice benefit of being on halftime parental leave is throwing the kid in the car and chasing down bird #100 for the year, a very lost glossy ibis.

The more I play with anchor positioning, the more convinced I am that it's going to unlock some surprising new layouts. Here's a responsive yearbook-style photo layout with no JavaScript.

Curious how 'position-area' works? It's more than a shorthand for anchor(). https://oddbird.dev/2025/02/25/anchor-position-area/

I've joked that Baby Stuckey Weber is competing to get released before Anchor Positioning goes Baseline, and with 22 hours to go for Firefox 146, it's going to be a tight race. Hoping for a smooth rollout!

Well drat, I have an article half written with some great examples, only to discover Firefox doesn’t yet support an input range thumb (`::-moz-range-thumb`) as an anchor.

It may not fix this issue, but I can’t wait for @utilitybend@front-end.social’s work to standardize range inputs to get adopted. https://open-ui.org/components/enhanced-range-input.explainer/#styling-api
