We enjoy working with teams pursuing large-scale projects
to plan, design, and develop tailor-made web applications and
design systems. As industry experts, we’d love to help you
improve team workflow, lower maintenance costs, and solve
problems that help people.
The CSS Working Group recently resolved to add a size shorthand for setting both the width and height of an element. Many people asked about using it to set the ‘logical’ inline-size and block-size properties instead. But ‘logical shorthands’ have been stalled in the working group for years. Can we…
CSS anchor positioning simplifies popovers and dropdowns, and also unlocks new creative possibilities. James joined Jason to teach and explore anchor positioning in live code.
position-area might be my favorite part of the CSS Anchor Positioning spec, with a ton of features packed in to make things just… work. But there’s no magic here, just a few key parts that work well.
Other developers build exactly what you say,
or they don’t understand,
and develop the wrong thing.
OddBird always thinks about the project goals.
I defer to the team expertise now,
which makes a better result.
As core contributors to CSS, Sass, and Django,
we write the books,
help create the languages,
and build the OSS projects
millions of other developers rely on.
Bringing that expertise to your custom web projects,
we focus on accessibility, performance,
resilient design systems, and well-tested code.
OddBird was the wise investment.
We could have selected a cheaper avenue for this work –
we would have paid for it manifold in the long run.
—Furman Brown, FounderatTegy
Since OddBird thinks about handoff from the beginning,
maintenance has been super easy.
For example, 100% unit test coverage was a given.
I never had to ask for it.
I co-founded OddBird with my brothers in 2008
as a full-stack, boutique agency
to provide custom web application design & development,
along with refactors for integrated
design systems, accessibility, performance,
and long-term sustainability.
Since then OddBird has become an industry leader –
from our work on Django, Sass, and Susy,
to the CSS Working Group, Mozilla Developer Channel, Object Oriented UX,
and in-depth conference talks on front-end architecture, workflow,
component libraries, testing, and documentation.
We’d love to help you thoughtfully serve people with technology.
