Stylelint — The CSS Cousin of ESLint

My Journey

I first learned about Stylelint while browsing through Styled Components documentation. I wasn’t specifically looking for it but since I had just setup ESLint and Prettier in my codebase, I was intrigued. From there, I started researching Stylelint. Pretty soon, I realized that while I had the ultimate Javascript linting setup through ESLint and Prettier, I had absolutely nothing for CSS. It was clear that this was my next task.

Stylelint

Stylelint is CSS’s linter. It works by analyzing your CSS and warning you if any configured rules are violated. These rules can catch CSS errors and enforce styling conventions. It’s similar to Google Doc’s or Microsoft Word’s spelling and grammar checking — essentially an automatic proofreader for your CSS!

Configuration

Stylelint runs off a configuration file named stylelint.config.js. This configuration file is broken down into rules, plugins, and extensions.

Rules

Rules define what Stylelint will look for in your code. These are defined in the rules section of the configuration as key value pairs. The key is the rule and the value toggles the rule and sets the options.

Enabling a rule depends on the rule itself — some rules it could be as simple as setting the value to true; others have the ability to tune directly via a keyword.

// stylelint.config.js
module.exports = {
  rules: {
    'declaration-no-important': true,
    'color-hex-case': 'upper',
  },
};

Some rules also allow you to customize it even further with additional configuration options. In this case, the primary option and the additional configurations are an array.

Creating a CSS Visual Cheatsheet

The other day one of our students asked about possibility of having a CSS cheatsheet to help to decide on the best suited approach when doing this or that layout.

This evolved into the idea of making a visual CSS cheatsheet with all (most) of the common patterns we see everyday and one of the best possible conceptual implementation for them.

In the end any layout could and should be split into parts/blocks and we see every block separately.

Here is our first take on that and we would be happy to keep extending it to help us all.

Please, send you suggestions in the comments in community or via gitlab for the repeated CSS patterns with your favourite implementation for that so that we will all together make this as useful as it can be.

CSS Alignment Made Simple

CSS is seen as an impediment in web development for many of us. Most of the time it looks like even when you follow the rules and everything seems clear, it still doesn’t work the way you want it to.

Therefore, the purpose of this article is to make some features of CSS much easier to understand.

The thing I want to address now is the alignment of the elements.

Without further ado, here are some of the most common scenarios one might encounter when it comes to this topic and how they can be approached.

This CSS Cut Out Effect is Guaranteed to Blow Your Mind 🤯

This effect is so cool and just fun to see. What it comes down to is having a background image show through the text.

How it works is that we will have a div that will have the image as a background. On that, we put our text element, using blend-mode it will show through the image.

The result you can see and touch on this Codepen.
