Messing around with a statically generated site can easily lead into a web/browser spec rabbit hole. And.. that’s when I remember exactly why everything ends up written outside the browser’s framework into a framework. I think Firefox is still the only browser that allows easily setting image fallback styling completely with just ?

Fallback image styling in Firefox
Making this happen in other browsers demands a magical rain dance.

Hyperscript Tagged Markup (htm) is pretty good. It uses tagged templates.

The Enhance Framework looks compelling. Personally, web components and more particularly the shadow DOM are not very appealing but… the template structure looks clean for drawing up components/layouts super fast while still being primitive enough to not lose transposability between different environments.

It seems like there’s an uptick in discussions online around web components but maybe that’s just the typical developer marketing/advocating. Web components have been around for a bit.

Hugo is a gateway for discovering neat golang libraries. Version 0.104.0 introduced a color extraction method that has lots of use–cases. An easy one is to generate basic image gradient placeholders. The browser has its own deferred/lazy loading logic so fancy image gradients (on a static site) require only a few lines of pre–generated styles.

Easier to show in Chromium compared to Firefox (a tad too fast/clever to capture)
