That being said, CSS frameworks are still wonderful, used right they can save a lot of time during early development by outsourcing the majority of design to the framework devs.

That’s actually my intent with using a CSS framework. A personal project of mine reached minimum viable product statud status (phones…) recently, I included bulma, and used some of its components for stuff like menus and modals. It was definitely faster than writing everything by hand early on. But I also ended up writing my own CSS anyway, especially with the grid, which is the foundation on which my app works on (it’s a grid-based colour mixing app).

I agree, I think CSS frameworks have a place for prototyping and we shouldn’t rely on them as a project moves towards a proper release 🤔

Then again, some people might think the obfuscation in 20+ classes is somehow a good thing…frankly, I think it’s worse than inline styles. It’s basically obfuscated inline styles!

If you don’t mind me asking, why this scorekeeper? The fact that it isn’t open-source leaves me hesitant to dig around in the code.

I can’t help but love when subreddits do this in response to the threat of removing mods if they stay private. I remember there were some that were posting “sexy” pics of John Oliver. iPhone was limited to posting “sexy” pics of Tim Cook. Working with what they have in order to continue their protests. I like it😁

It has malicious compliance written all over it 🙃

I don’t know how exact the values need to be, but optically, the closest I could get to --result is with these values, still using color-mix:

color-mix(in srgb, #02C390, 79% #31363B)

It came out as #27544D

To be fair, my monitors are not colour calibrated so it might not even look like that on your screen or anyone else’s.

If you don’t mind me asking, how did you arrive at --result’s value?

There were legitimate reasons from a design standpoint. It’s badly balanced, the spacing is inconsistent…and it was everywhere.

Funny enough, I suspect what makes it a badly designed font might be why some people with dyslexia have an easier time reading with it. The badly balanced, poor spacing, probably made the letters in the font more distinguishable from one another.

If you (or anyone else that’s interested) have the time, I think this article, “Why You Hate Comic Sans,” goes over all of it pretty well.
