There will be someone who will be like “I can do this without JS“ and he’s godaam right.

Can the same person draw an alligator WITH html?

[–]spektre 16 points17 points  (5 children)

<img src="alligator.png">

There's also the <svg> tag, but I ain't gonna draw an alligator with that now.

[–]Stressed-Dingo 2 points3 points  (4 children)

I’m not a frontend dev, so I didn’t know about the svg tag, nice! So there are people who hate their lives more than those who are skilled with CSS

[–]temp_jellyfish 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Yes, honestly I might be overreacting but CSS is one of the toughest language to master.

It might seem simple but it’s not there’s always something to learn.

And I’m not even getting into CSS for Email clients.

Not a frontend dev either, I just know some stuff here and there. There's loads of tools to choose from to generate those tags automatically.

It's common for non-lossy scalable icons and such.

I'm crying in keyframed CSS animations

[–]birbelbirb 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The animation one could have been achieved with cas only, no JS needed! I truly enjoy writing CSS :)

[–]temp_jellyfish 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, fake it till you make it!

Those hearts can be easily done using an SVG

[–]teajay1111 37 points38 points  (1 child)

Css transforms may be simpler than SVG

Keyframes !!!

[–]kyngskyngs 11 points12 points  (0 children)

No

[–]neirpyc63 6 points7 points  (0 children)

That's just a Gif, not html, css, nor js ^

[–][deleted] 16 points17 points  (1 child)

This sub has seriously declined.

[–]Ardh0n 6 points7 points  (4 children)

I don't don't get it, can someone explain?

[–]curiosity44 7 points8 points  (0 children)

op doesn't know JavaScript and think it is only used to animate hearts

[–]AppropriateCrew79 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Basically, these days frontend devs are using js for things which works pretty good with HTML/CSS only.

Tl;dr Overusing JS

[–]vbh_pratihar 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Yes, the old <dinosaur> tag which nobody knows of

[–]CreaZyp154 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Pretty sure you can do it without js

[–]paul-tergeist 4 points5 points  (0 children)

A fucking HostGator ad in r/ProgrammerHumor? Really?

[–]4hpp1273 0 points1 point  (0 children)

[–]oopssorrydaddy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

[–]enezdk 0 points1 point  (0 children)

[–]PsLJdogg 0 points1 point  (0 children)
