What it does
Looking for some ready CSS library under 1K to scaffold your markup on? Look no further. 999.css weighs 999 bytes minified (with devilo.us ), and just 512 bytes gzipped. <link rel=stylesheet href="//cdn.rawgit.com/plugnburn/0eea0b4ceb08c270efa6/raw/486682dbae8f05eef738bef3d6d7f69fcabcd048/999.min.css"> Originally started under “fungrid” name, 999.css borrows some ideas from different libraries like Ungrid, Gridism, Min.css, PocketGrid and Modernscale project, and combines them with own style to make a small and efficient tool. For those of you who don't want to read much and want to get started faster, there's a cheat sheet just to the left of the page. But I'd advise to better take some…from 999.surge.sh

Talanoa▲340Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
