gimesi / column-calc.scss
Created January 4, 2019 13:13
Calculate column width in SCSS for CSS columns to nicely collapse exactly at the point where the container starts to shrink on resize
$container-max-width: 72rem; /* from here on the columns start collapsing */
$container-padding: 2rem; /* added because we don't like text sticking to the edges on mobiles */
$columns: 3; /* number of columns @ the max-width of the container */
$columns-gap: 4rem; /* space between the columns */
/* pretty straightforward but here comes the magic:
the single column width is the result after
- the gap between the columns (always 1 less than the total number of columns)
- the container padding (applied on the left and on the right)
are subtracted from the width of the container and then

Snippet to count how many characters are left in a textarea. I use it in the backend of a CMS to insert meta information for social shares (e.g. re-tweets).
// in HTML:
// <div id="count"></div>
// <textarea id="#share-description"></textarea>
$(document).ready(function() {
var chars = 115; // 140 minus 25 (Twitter links (24 chars) plus 1 whitespace)
var left;
if ($("#share-description").val().length === 0) {
left = chars;

(Hopefully) useful snippet of common meta tags for the <head> section: standard & social tags (e.g. for Facebook, Twitter, Google+, Pinterest), fav and touch icons, and other stuff.

<meta http-equiv="X-UA-Compatible" content="IE=edge,chrome=1"/>

gimesi / DivToViewPortHeight
Created December 29, 2013 16:09
Set a div to full viewport height with JQuery.
$(document).ready(function(){
// set the intro div automatically to full viewport height
$('.intro').height($(window).height());
// ensure it stays this way when the window is resized
$(window).resize(function(){
$('.intro').height($(window).height());
});
});
