Following this pole on Twitter I thought I’d take a look at spinning up a project using Parceljs.
I’ve used Gulp for years and Grunt before that. Parcel seemed like a logical progression. That, plus, I still don’t have the stomach to try and get Webpack working!
Parcel is touted as ‘zero configuration’ and although that is largely true, if you are moving from Gulp there are definitely some things you need to keep in mind.
Progressive Web Apps (PWA) are reliable, fast, and engaging, although there are many things that can take a PWA from a baseline to exemplary experience.
To help teams create the best possible experiences we've put together this checklist which breaks down all the things we think it takes to be a Baseline PWA, and how to take that a step further with an Exemplary PWA by providing a more meaningful offline experience, reaching interactive even faster and taking care of many more important details.
The best request is the one that never happens: in the fight for fast websites, avoiding the network is far better than hitting the network at all. To this end, having a solid caching strategy can make all the difference for your visitors.
That being said, more and more often in my work I see lots of opportunities being left on the table through unconsidered or even completely overlooked caching practices. Perhaps it’s down to the heavy focus on first-time visits, or perhaps it’s a simple lack of awareness and knowledge? Whatever it is, let’s have a bit of a refresher.

CSS just got a sweet little upgrade. position:sticky just landed in Chrome 56. Sticky positioning in CSS lets us build some really neat interactions in very few lines of code. It’s useful for any time you want a UI element to stick around in view as the user is scrolling, but not become sticky until the element gets to a specific distance from the top/bottom/left/right egde of the scrolling viewport. It’s like a position:fixed element that’s a sleeper agent spy. It behaves just like a regular position:relative element - even fooling its own parents and siblings - until the secret distance is met, activatating the position:fixed behavior of the spy.

It’s extremely useful to have a WCAG 2.0 checklist to hand when you’re working through the guidelines. A WCAG 2.0 checklist helps you to check your web accessibility progress, record how far you’ve come and set your targets out for the future.
Wuhcag is all about holistic web accessibility – that means taking everything about your website into account. That’s why I don’t rush you to make every web accessibility change at once – it’s too much for you to do and so it’s bad for your users.
