- Increase list padding so that ordered-list decimal markers have space to fit without overflowing. - Improve style for removing underline between h-card name and photo, so it doesn't apply to any unnecessary elements. - Reduce budget for document size.

/* CSS that adds the bare minimum for a simple, accessible,
|
|
* touch-friendly layout.
|
|
* Nothing here exists purely for cosmetics; everything addresses a
|
|
* specific a11y, compatibility, or critical
|
|
* usability need.
|
|
*
|
|
* Three exceptions:
|
|
* - I re-set the input styles so Safari wouldn't make them pill-shaped
|
|
* - I tweaked some margins/paddings to make some things evenly aligned
|
|
* - I made my IndieWeb profile photo align without an underline
|
|
* on the whitespace between the photo and my name.
|
|
*
|
|
* I also don't use any non-microformats classes except when styling
|
|
* depends on *content* of an element rather than structure/semantics.
|
|
* Examples include images that look better with pixelated upscaling,
|
|
* and posts on the list of entries in the "notes" section that are tall
|
|
* and need a larger contain-intrinsic-size.
|
|
* One exception: a class for narrow width body text.
|
|
*
|
|
* Some pages (e.g. post archives) are really long despite having a
|
|
* small download size. Rather than resort to pagination, I decided to
|
|
* use CSS containment and content-visibility. I test performance on
|
|
* browsers with heavy throttling and no GPU acceleration to ensure that
|
|
* they're gentle on the CPU. For instance, Lighthouse benchmarks my
|
|
* machine's CPU power at 1200-1300 and recommends 2.8-3.0x throttling;
|
|
* I throttle at 12-15x.
|
|
*
|
|
* "content-visibility: auto" implies containment; however, some
|
|
* browsers don't support "content-visibility: auto" but do support the
|
|
* "contain" property. To be consistent across all these browsers, I
|
|
* therefore use both even if it's a bit redundant. Once the latest
|
|
* Safari has supported "content-visibility: auto" for a year or so and
|
|
* it's in the latest version of the Tor Browser (which typically uses
|
|
* whatever the latest Firefox-ESR was a month or two ago), I'll
|
|
* consider removing these redundancies. I'll probably have to wait two
|
|
* years.
|
|
*
|
|
* To keep myself from caring about minute details, I limited myself to
|
|
* only defining spacing in increments of .25em. Pixels are 1px or
|
|
* multiples of 3px. This also improves compression. No more "finding
|
|
* the perfect value".
|
|
*
|
|
* I cite WCAG 2.2 success criteria with "SC". I also tried to meet
|
|
* the Google a11y requirement of 48px tap targets separated by atl
|
|
* 8px, excluding inline links. This involved increasing font size,
|
|
* padding, line-height, and margins. */
