- “The Mighty Ellipsis”

Textures is a JavaScript library for creating SVG patterns for data visualization, “useful for the selective perception of different categories.”(via Paul Ford) - “Project Emoji: The Complete Redesign”
One of the Windows 10 Anniversary Update features is a brand new emoji keyboard. Always With Honor developed the 450+ emojis that support the glyph framework. (via Drew Bell) - “Useful Pens for Everyday Front End Development”
“Here’s a super great collection of design patterns and handy front end dev tricks on CodePen, curated by Sarah Drasner.” (via Neil Renicker) - “Traditional Creative Director Rants ‘Digital is Going Extinct’”
