My current frontend design stack consists of WordPress with Bricks Builder and Automatic.CSS, for quick design builds that can be wireframed on the fly. I've tried a few builders in the past, and this combination has ended up working pretty well for me. What's everyone else working with?

If your components still live and die by viewport breakpoints, you’re falling behind. Container queries are where it's at, regarding fluid responsiveness. Get into it.

CSS custom properties are a great way to keep yourself organized when you're building out a website design. You can define pretty much anything you'd like, from colors, to weights, to borders, to border radii, to animations, etc. When you get to styling, you can reference these properties by using var(--custom-property) instead of constantly needing to type/paste your style code into your targets, which ends up creating a larger CSS file. I'm sure that doesn't make much sense, so here's a great resource for anyone interested in learning how to define these variables. https://developer.mozilla.org/en-US/docs/Web/CSS/CSS_cascading_variables/Using_CSS_custom_properties

I didn't know what to do with this domain, so I put up a little mental wellness focused momentum builder on it. It uses local browser storage to keep track of progress, so it relies on the user using the same browser, and not clearing cached data. If anyone has any ideas that would work great for this domain, I'm all ears, and open to irl contract-backed collabs. Maybe it would work well as a cannabis focused UGC platform. https://nug.gy/

So I'm a designer, but not a true coder. I do know intermediate front-end stuff, and can understand how backends work if I study what's going on. That being said, I'm pretty proud to have vibe coded a WordPress plugin to what I would call completion, today. It's the same plugin I was talking about in a previous post. I got tired of having to get out of my design environment to get clamp functions for my typography elements to be sized with, so I built a plugin that acts as a widget, and is accessible on both the admin dashboard and whatever frontend environment you're using. I'll probably get it converted to a standalone at some point, but I don't want to get out of my comfort bubble, just yet. Yay me. Here's the dashboard, and the modal UI itself. Shout out to Gemini 2.5 Pro.

If anyone wants a sandbox to learn and play around with website design, at no cost to you, DM me. I'm very selective with who I gift server space to, btw. Consider it an interview.

I have a WordPress plugin prototype that I'm looking for feedback on. Anyone up for testing it out? It's a plugin designed to assist with fluid dynamic text sizing. Reply here or DM me for a link.
