I’ve been doing this CSS thing for over 15 years and I’ve seen a lot of change in that time. A lot of the time, I see a new CSS feature and immediately get excited about how helpful it’s going to be for me and the team in the long term. A good example of that is text-box-trim.

You are not alone. CSS was born in 1996 (it can legally order a beer, you know!) and was initially considered a way to style documents; I don’t think anyone imagined everything CSS would be expected to do nearly 30 years later.

As CSS continues to evolve, it brings new tools and options that help developers craft better and more dynamic web experiences. In this article, I want to introduce 5 lesser-known (and often underused) CSS properties and features that are worth integrating in your 2025 workflow.

So this conversation is a deep dive into what it looks like for designers to approach their work with an engineering mindset. We talk about Julius’s deep background in prototyping, how he collaborates with designers at Linear. And we also get into why the current state of design engineering is a missed opportunity.

Flexbox is a one-dimensional layout tool, used for arranging elements in a single row or column. It is best suited for simple, one-dimensional layouts and smaller-scale projects.

Tired of generic AI tool lists that read like they were written by an AI? Me too. That’s why I dove deep into AI to find real gems. This isn’t just another article—it’s my personal experience. Get ready to discover AI tools that will impact your life (or at least make it a little easier).

We can highlight our software’s value in a number of ways: images, interactive widgets, motion graphics, talking-head walkthroughs, and live product demos—and I believe we’re really underutilizing the latter three. Because in my experience, these methods are incredibly effective at showcasing software features and helping users vividly understand their worth. Let’s explore some inspiring real-life cases to see how you can apply these value highlighters to your own products!

It’s harder to build predictable and transparent experiences when even literal computer scientists can’t predict the outcome of a prompt, or explain it to someone on the train.
