Accessible dropdown menus without JS

Container queries changed how I build card layouts — the component adapts to its slot, not the viewport.

:has() finally lets me style parents without JavaScript, and support is good now.

I design in the browser almost exclusively now; mockups only for client sign-off.

Code:

:root { --accent: #4f7cff; }

— CSS variables made my theming life so much easier.

:has() feels like cheating compared to what we used to do.

Nice thread, following for the replies.

Bumping this because I ran into the same thing today.

CSS variables + one class toggle is my whole dark mode stack.
