    So, You Want to Build an @mention Autocomplete Feature?

    Twitter, Slack, Notion, Google Docs, and Asana have popularized the “@mention” pattern. You can mention another person, a channel, a file, or some other queryable object using triggers, such as the @ or # characters. This opens a panel with suggestions, letting you complete your message with the right reference.

    Icon Glassmorphism Effect in CSS

My first thought was I could quickly recreate it in a few minutes if I just use some emojis for the icons without wasting time on SVG-ing them. I couldn’t have been more wrong about those “few minutes” — they ended up being days of furiously and frustratingly scratching this itch!

    CSS "decorations"

    Commoncss:mw-collapsible-leftside-toggle.mw is a “CSS decorator’ and I think that’s a fine term for it. Without some kind of CSS processing, those comments will do nothing. I don’t think there is a logical equivalent for float , unfortunately, but there may be a way to refactor the layout (using grid?)
