Accessibility has always been a topic that interested me. Writing standards-based HTML brings a baseline level of accessibility with it. But a lot of times the interfaces that we make are a bit more complex than what you can do with standard HTML. Consider this design for a search dropdown. As a UI designer with […]

I’m pretty tired of some small-time bullshit that I see on Twitter sometimes. Some people really take their self-promotion too far. Today I was reminded of someone, who, whenever I met him in real life thought he was a cool guy. I respect most of his writing and opinions. In fact I probably learned a […]

There is the old guard (Foundation/Bootstrap) that is good for entry level work/learning but creates problems on bigger projects due to style leakage and not enough strictness in namespacing.

The project was government-related and for a large audience so I […]

KBC is de 1e bank om de aanschaf van treintickets toe te voegen aan de mobiele app. Ik kan dit alleen maar toejuichen. De kwaliteit van de mobiele KBC app is erg hoog. Ik hoop dat ze dezelfde kwaliteit kunnen bewaren in deze ervaring. Ik meen dat het al langer mogelijk is om trein tickets te […]
I wanted to bind ⌥+⌘+T to be able to use macOS’s tags feature using a keyboard shortcut in Finder.app. The way to set it up is super vague, so I figured I would share that you need to do to make it work. First, set it up in System Preferences > Shortcuts. Attach the shortcut […]
I tweeted “Just self-host your things. External services can change the rules at any minute and they will.” This was mostly in response to people complaining about Flickr’s recent policy change, which limits free accounts to show the 1000 latest photos. It’s also sort of a retort against Medium, a service I have been using […]
